HAL SYSTEM INSTALL GUIDE Software Component Included in the HAL System is a software application, called Halogen, that you use to configure and manage the entire system. Halogen contains two primary graphical workspaces, the Hardware Workspace and the Processing Workspace, in which you simply drag and drop hardware components and processing blocks to set up the audio system you want. You can work in online mode (connected to HAL) or offline mode (not connected to HAL or any other hardware). The ability to work in offline mode makes Halogen a powerful design tool available for use whether or not you have the hardware in hand. And not only can you design your system without having hardware in place, you can also test your system before you install the hardware! Now that's powerful! NOTE: When working in online mode, changes made in the software are immediately implemented and saved to HAL (with the exception of DSP changes that require a system recompile). Below is a sample of the Halogen Processing Workspace: For more details on the Halogen software application, see "Introduction to the Halogen Software" on page 87. 6

Software Component
Included in the HAL System is a software application, called Halogen, that you use to configure and manage the
entire system. Halogen contains two primary graphical workspaces, the Hardware Workspace and the Processing
Workspace, in which you simply drag and drop hardware components and processing blocks to set up the audio
system you want. You can work in online mode (connected to HAL) or offline mode (not connected to HAL or
any other hardware). The ability to work in offline mode makes Halogen a powerful design tool available for use
whether or not you have the hardware in hand. And not only can you design your system without having hard-
ware in place, you can also
test
your system
before
you install the hardware! Now that's powerful!
NOTE
:
When working in online mode, changes made in the software are immediately implemented and saved
to HAL (with the exception of DSP changes that require a system recompile).
