Input

Use the Input action to manage speaker inputs and set failover priority.

Access the Input Selection Panel

Click on the input button of a speaker that is online (green indicator in the upper left) to access the Input Selection Panel. Speakers matched with the same amplifier will all have a dark blue color.

 

Input Selection Panel

Use the Input Selection Panel to view and manage speaker inputs and set failover priority. 

 

Input selection options: For details about the options for each input section see Input Priority Routing below. 

Selected Input: The input number, in the upper left of each input section, will display dark blue while selected. While selected, each of the following attributes are displayed for the selected input.

Digital / Analog dBFS meters: The range of each meter is -60 to 0 decibels relative to full scale.

Digital, Trim: Digital trim editable field has a range of -100 to 12 decibels.

Analog, Trim and Delay: Analog trim editable field has a range of -100 to 12 decibels. Analog Delay editable field has a range of 0 to 5 milliseconds.

Copy settings: Apply will copy the setting of the current input to all other input channels on the same amplifier.

Mix dBFS meter: The range of the meter is -60 to 0 decibels relative to full scale.

 

Input Priority Routing

By default each channel will be set to digital as 1:1 priority routing. Digital routing is performed internally through the system. Analog routing is performed through the analog inputs on the back panel of the the device. Configure the routing as desired for each channel using the Digital / Analog toggle and analog routing drop down. Each Input is divided into a section for settings that are applied to all speakers on the same amplifier and settings that are applied to the selected speaker individually.

Settings Applied to Speakers on the Same Amplifier

Input number: The input number will display blue while it is the selected input.

Input name: Double clicking on the name of an input will access the text field to update the name of the selected input.

Digital / Analog toggle: The selected button will display blue.

Analog failover drop-down: Allows the user to select the priority routing of physical inputs in a failover scenario. Choosing an Analog Input option from the drop-down on a channel will select that input as the failover for the input on the current channel while digital is selected from the toggle.

Digital / Analog meters: The meter to the right of the analog or digital toggle will always display audio exclusively for the current input channel. If a failover has occurred and audio has been routed to the input selected from the drop-down, the meter will not display any audio because it has failed over to the selected source.

Settings Applied to Individual Speakers

Gain field: Use the gain field to view or edit the gain level for the individual speaker. Edit by typing the value directly into the field or using the increase and decrease buttons on either side.

Gain dial: The gain field value may also be adjusted by using the dial. Gain has a range of -100 to 0 dBs.

Mute toggle: By default each speaker will have only a single input mute toggled to the unmute position, all other inputs will be muted for that speaker. While a speaker input button is selected, the mute toggle on the panel menu acts as a source selector. Unmute one or more additional inputs to route multiple sources to a single speaker output. Reverse this by toggling the button to the muted position.

Speakers with two inputs routed will have this information displayed on the speaker written as "_sum_#, #_"

A speaker that has more than two inputs will have the text "_sum_+_" listed in place of the full range of inputs routed to it.
