Getting Started • Confirm that nothing is missing from your shipping carton. Refer to Carton Contents on page 4. • Record the serial number (found on the product rear panel) in the space provided on the inside of the front cover of this manual for easy reference. • Activate your warranty and receive future upgrade notifications by registering your purchase on our website, www.audioauthority.com/register.
Installation The ADX is easy to set up for both simple and advanced installations. Perform the following steps. Installing the ADX The ADX is conveniently designed so that it may be installed either on a shelf or in a standard 19-inch equipment rack. If rack mounting, remove the feet and the cover screws adjacent to the front panel of the unit. Reuse the cover screws to mount the Model 1192A rack adapters supplied with the ADX. Be sure to place a spacer under the adapters at every screw location.
Advanced Setup and Remote Control Options Using the RS-232 Port. System controllers and PCs can send all setup and control commands as well as receive feedback via the RS-232 serial port. • Important: If a PC is connected directly to the ADX RS-232 port, use a standard serial cable. • The baud rate is set to 9600 by default, but this may be changed using the Front Panel Menu screen “Serial”. The other connectivity parameters are fixed to 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.
DHCP If DHCP is enabled on your network, simply connecting the ADX to the network with an existing DHCP server will enable it to obtain all necessary information. DHCP is enabled on the ADX by default. Static addressing connected directly to a PC The ADX must be given an IP address which will not conflict with the PC. Go to the network settings (which are found in control panel -> network -> local connection properties of a PC running Windows XP).
Operation Front Panel The front panel is operated by touching the sensitive key areas: Group E , Favorite F , All G , Menu H , Back I , and Dim J to select the respective sub-menu. Once the desired screen has been selected, rotate the Multi Function Knob D to navigate to the item you want to change and press the knob to select that item. The previous selection is marked with a solid arrow “”, and any others marked with an open arrow “.
Dim Button J This button toggles through four predefined brightness levels for the VFD and keyboard LED indicators. After a five minute period, the VFD will enter a screen saver mode and turn off. The power and button LED’s will remain on at a very low level to show that the unit is receiving power. Any key press or knob adjustment will cause the system to return the VFD and LED indicators to the last selected brightness level.
Export File With a USB 1.1 or USB 2.0 drive connected to the USB port O on the rear panel of the ADX, simply follow the on screen instructions to export to the default file name, “config.adx”. If the file is already present, you will be prompted to overwrite it. Note – The USB port is v1.1 and v2.0 compatible. There is a small delay when inserting a USB drive to identify the device and mount the file system.
