Operation
Audio Group Selection
The 3G-AE 100 supports up to sixteen channels of embedded digital audio. SDI audio is
divided into four groups; each group has four channels. When an audio group is enabled, its
channels are extracted and routed to the 3G-AE 100 analog output ports.
The Group Select DIP switch can enable two groups (eight channels) at the same time:
• To enable groups 1 and 2, set the switch to 1/2.
