How to install ClearOne Converge Pro 2 48VT Audio Mixer

• Plan your room’s layout and map out the 4 mic/line inputs to the microphones or line devices you will use. Determine which microphones require priority or paging capabilities and assign them accordingly in the configuration software.
• Connect the 8 mic/line outputs to your speakers, amplifiers, or distribution system. Route the outputs to the appropriate zones or zones within your room for optimal coverage and balance.
• Connect the USB audio interface to a computer or conferencing device. Ensure the computer recognizes the device for high‑quality input and output during meetings, recordings, and streaming.
• If integrating legacy systems, connect the Telco interface to your POTS line(s) to enable traditional telephone participation in SIP conferences. Verify line compatibility and dial plans with your telephony provider.
• Power on the unit and access the management interface over the local network. Use the vendor’s configuration software or web UI to configure SIP credentials, routing, EQ, AEC/NIR settings, and input/output levels.
• Enable and calibrate DSP features. Run room calibration to fine‑tune echo cancellation, noise suppression, and gain settings, ensuring clear voice capture and minimal feedback in the actual meeting environment.
• Test with real participants. Conduct a full test with local and remote attendees, adjust microphone placement, verify intelligibility, and confirm that all lines and calls are correctly routed.
• Save configurations and document your setup. Create backup files for quick recovery and note SIP profiles, routing maps, and room calibration parameters for future maintenance or upgrades.
