IMPORTANT! En établissant les rapports logiques dans le  
compositeur, identifiez le dispositif comme type de réseau (Ethernet  
ou Zigbee) ce vous choisissent sur la configuration réseau de  
dispositif. Pour éviter le comportement inattendu, n'identifiez pas le  
dispositif en tant que les deux types de réseau.  
Source Inputs  
Each of the 16 signal sensing analog audio inputs (the RCA style ports) is labeled  
1-16 for each individual source.

WICHTIG! Wenn Sie logische Beziehungen im Komponisten  
herstellen, identifizierenen Sie die Vorrichtung als die Netzart  
(Ethernet oder Zigbee) diese Sie wählen auf der  
VorrichtungsNetzwerkkonfiguration. Um unerwartetes Verhalten zu  
vermeiden, identifizierenen Sie die Vorrichtung nicht als beide  
Netzarten.  
Audio Outputs  
The system automatically creates generic source names displayed in the front of  
the device. To change these names, you must update your system using  
supported system designing software (such as Composer Pro on a PC). For more  
information, refer to the documentation that shipped with your Escient controller or  
contact your professional installer or reseller.  
Input Power Requirement:  
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves,  
or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.  
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A  
polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding-type  
plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third  
prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your out-  
let, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.  
10.Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs,  
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.  
11.Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.  
12.Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manu-  
facturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when  
moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.  
13.Unplug this apparatus during lighting storms or when unused for long periods  
of time.

The best method of initially setting up system routing for the Switch 16 Channel  
Audio is using Composer Pro software on a PC (for trained installers only). You  
can also make adjustments from the front display.  
4. If the switch is set to use an Ethernet network, the MAC address, method of  
obtaining a network IP address, the device’s IP address, Subnet Mask, and  
Gateway are displayed.  
Additional Resources  
The following resources are available:  
The front display allows you to set or change audio source routing and change  
zone settings for volume, bass, treble, and mute. The display also shows the  
current source and zone activity.  
The Switch 16 Channel Audio, by default, uses DHCP to obtain a network  
IP address.
