Introduction & basic setup
The recommended path through your first frequency coordination — from learning the interface to calculated, monitored frequencies.
Work top to bottom; each step links to the full guide.
1. Learn the lay of the land
Section titled “1. Learn the lay of the land”Read How Coord is organized — it explains the hierarchy (project → site → zone → group → frequencies) everything else assumes. Then skim the five areas of the interface: project management, coordination, details, calculation, and plot.
2. Set up your account
Section titled “2. Set up your account”- Edit your profile — name, photo, and language.
- Enable two-factor authentication.
- On Desktop: check your licenses.
3. Create the project and bring the team
Section titled “3. Create the project and bring the team”- Create a project with the venue’s location and the show dates.
- Invite collaborators and set their per-site permissions.
4. Describe the venue
Section titled “4. Describe the venue”- Create sites for each venue or RF environment, and zones for each space within them.
- Set the site’s location on the TV Channels page so SoundBase can find the local TV channels.
- Upload a scan of the venue (or find one nearby) and choose which scans each zone displays.
- Block anything you must avoid: exclusions, and band plans to structure the spectrum.
5. Calculate
Section titled “5. Calculate”- Create groups for each set of devices.
- Follow Creating a new frequency coordination — calculate device by device, most constrained first.
- Verify with a zone Health Check.
6. On show site (SoundBase Desktop)
Section titled “6. On show site (SoundBase Desktop)”- Discover your devices on the control network and deploy the frequencies.
- Watch everything live: the Monitoring page, Remote View for the crew, and a live scan on the plot.
