We use audio mixer terminology of "strips" when referring to generic control
functions or individual items within a control (strip) group.
The number above the channel control strips does not indicate any particular source
channel number or arrangement. Strip numbers only serve as references for channel
configurations at the Web GUI level. Different presets typically have different
channel numbers assigned to control strips.
The control strip display label default is to display the input type and channel
number, but may be changed at the Web GUI to be any displayable text or
numbers.
 Speakers: Audio monitoring is achieved through the use of class D
amplifiers driving two (left/right) wide range speakers.
 Headphone Jack: A 1/4" jack for an optional headphone is provided on the
front panel. Speaker audio mutes when headphones are plugged in.
 Channel Volume/Mute:
level of each corresponding channel. Pressing the knob mutes or unmutes
channel.
 Master Volume controls levels and mutes/unmutes the entire mix.
 Preset / Config Switch: Pressing this switch activates a menu for preset
selection and configuration status information.
 USB 2.0 Port: This USB Type A connector allows you to use a flash drive
(not supplied) to perform software updates and copy system configurations
to another IAM-MIX or to a PC.
