Summary of Contents for Audio Authority SF-16M

  • Page 1 Setup Utility Guide SF-16M 16-Channel Digital Matrix Amplifier...
  • Page 2 Advanced Configuration Using the Setup Utility The Setup Utility is the most efficient way to set up SF-16M advanced features (using *Mac or PC), and provides an easy way to save a copy of each configuration to edit off-site, or for backup. For more detail, see video tutorials at www.audioauthority.com/sonaflex_tip4.
  • Page 3 Source Setup Tab - Type a name for each source, select gain adjustment (if any), and choose mono or stereo. All inputs and outputs are mono by default. Designating a source as stereo ties the selected odd numbered source to the next even number for switching, volume and DSP.
  • Page 4 Output Setup Assignment Tab - In Basic Mode, assign each output to a Zone, and/or name the outputs and indicate whether the outputs are mono or stereo. In Advanced Mode, Zone assignments are ignored, and all of the DSP settings are available.
  • Page 5 Zone Setup Tab - Switch to Basic Mode to use Zones instead of Outputs. Set volume levels, loudness, bass, treble, and maximum volume levels. Some settings on this tab are permanent (e.g. volume and maximum volume levels, etc.), and some are intended for temporary convenience while setting up levels (e.g. source, mute, power off, etc.). Set Power On Minimum and Maximum levels to ensure moderate volume levels when an output is powered on (limits do not apply after mute).
  • Page 6 SF-16M. Scenes can also be saved and recalled across multiple SF-16M amplifiers linked together, however each individual SF-16M has a maximum of 10 unit or “global” Scenes. Scene settings include Scene naming, source selection, volume levels, mute status and an “Bypass” option which allows any output to always ignore a Scene preset.
  • Page 7 AppleTV, or audio mixer. Audio override can be triggered by two contact closure inputs on the back of the SF-16M, as well as specific serial, IR commands, and Flex Port triggers. Up to 10 audio override configurations can be set up per SF-16M, plus FlexPort overrides (see FlexPort Manual).
  • Page 8 The System Trigger contacts on the SF-16M allow equipment such as A-V receivers or power managment devices to put the SF-16M in standby to conserve energy. Choose Audio Sense or Audio Sense Plus Trigger for the trigger mode.
  • Page 9 When several Zones are members of a Group, you can still adjust their settings individually, but when a Group command is issued, all member Zones respond. Up to 10 Groups can be created per SF-16M. Group settings include Group naming and output Zone members.
  • Page 10 DSP adjustments on Outputs, not on Zones. To revert back to Basic Mode from Advanced Mode, you must either load the Basic Mode archived on your computer, or use the Front Panel menu to reset the SF-16M to Factory Default. Choose an Output.
  • Page 11 DSP Tab in 7-band parametric configuration Zone Control Tab - Use the Zone Control feature for troubleshooting or testing the SF-16M installation. Select a Zone, choose a Source, and adjust Volume, Treble, Bass, Mute and Loudness. This tab works in Basic Mode, and if all outputs are mapped to their own zone (default settings), it works in Advanced Mode as well.
