It’s Under Control®
Thank you for using the AD-16x Audio Matrix Switch.
Wherever you go - let the music move with you.
Ideal for large, multi-zone audio installations, the AD-16x provides routing
for 16 audio sources to 16 zones, while RTI Cool Power® ampliers (CP-450/
CP-1650) drive crystal clear audio to every speaker. For added convenience,
the AD-16x also features eight remote source inputs, which allows devices
located in other rooms to be used as a global source. If the system grows past
16 zones, up to four AD-16x units can be cascaded for up to 64 output zones.
The switch also delivers complete audio management, including parametric
equalizing, zone grouping, and balance control — all congurable via a
convenient web interface.
Setting the AD-16x apart is the engineering that enables this matrix to become
an extension of the RTI ecosystem. At the heart of this powerful integration
is the AD64 two-way driver running on an RTI XP processor, providing
integrators with unmatched exibility and programming efciency. The driver
features custom project labeling, allowing integrators to name all of the zones
and sources, eliminating tedious programming by ID number. Pushing the
user experience to new levels, the driver also allows dynamic audio source
management, which tracks the active sources. This allows a user to determine
if a source is already in use and select a different one to avoid an inadvertent
music change.
*NOTE: Up to eight AD-16x units may be used to reach 128 output zones using
Infrared control. There is a limit of four AD-16x units when the AD64 two-way
driver is used, for a maximum of 64 output zones.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Please read these important notes about the AD-16x:
The AD-16x should be placed in an area where it is around normal room
temperature (between 60°F to 90°F).
Avoid installing the AD-16x in a location with little or no air circulation.
Avoid installing the AD-16x in a location where it can come in contact with
direct sunlight.
Do not let the AD-16x system get wet. It should not be handled with wet
hands or placed in an area where it could get wet.
Do not subject the AD-16x to smoke, dust, or vibrations.
Only use the power cord that is supplied with the AD-16x. Using the wrong
type of power cord may result in damage.
Do not disassemble the unit. Service of the AD-16x should be performed
by authorized personnel only.
