AudiaFUSION is the newest member of the Audia® family, bringing together open-architecture DSP, Multi-Channel Amplier technology,
and device- and load-monitoring capabilities. AudiaFUSION features an 8-channel modular amplier, 16x16 I/O via CobraNet® and DSP with support for channel-to-channel and device-to-device failover. AudiaFUSION can support up to 8 amplier cards that are individually software congurable from 100-600 watts for up to 2400 watts of power, with software-selectable 70V, 100V and low impedance outputs
per card. Intuitive software provides audio system design via PC and allows easy selection, viewing and calibration of numerous audio
components: mixers, combiners, matrixes, equalizers, lters, crossovers, dynamics, routers, delays, meters, generators, diagnostic tools,
and more. Once a system design is compiled, it is downloaded into AudiaFUSION, where it can be controlled via AMX,® Crestron,® other
third-party control system, or via computer running daVinci™ control software. When installed in a system together, AudiaFLEX and Audia­FUSION processing resources are allocated as needed, making the whole system more efcient. .

Setup and Use
The Audia software provides the interface for conguring and programming AudiaFUSION. The information supplied by this manual
relates to hardware installation, physical connections, and device and channel failover concerns. For more details on software setup, please consult the Audia software Help File.
Figure 1. Front Panel
System Indicators
The LED indicators on the front panel provide information about the function and operational status of the AudiaFUSION chassis and any installed AM-600 amplier modules. Columns one through eight correspond to the eight amplier module slots. The remaining LEDs
correspond to the AudiaFUSION chassis.
Figure 2. System Indicators
Channel Indicators Chassis Indicators
Channel Indicators Alarm is a two-color LED that illuminates when a channel fault has occurred. Two types of channel faults can be reported, depending on
the severity of the problem. Amber indicates a Warning, which means that some aspect of the AM-600 amplier module is not performing within normal specication. Audio may still be passing, but if the condition causing the Warning is not corrected, channel failure may occur. Red indicates an Alarm, which means that some aspect of the AM-600 amplier module has failed and audio is no longer passing on that channel. Use the Audia software to determine the specic type of channel warning or alarm that has occurred.
Activity is a two-color LED that illuminates in green when the channel is congured and actively passing audio and amber when the channel is congured and in standby. Standby only occurs when a channel has been designated as a secondary failover channel in the conguration.

Signal 1 is a tri-color LED that indicates audio signal presence on the channel. Green indicates that the audio signal level is between
-50 dBFS and -3 dBFS, amber indicates a signal level between -3 dBFS and 0 dBFS, and red indicates clipping.
Signal 2 has no function at this time and is in place for possible future use.
Chassis Indicators Alarm is a two-color LED that illuminates when a chassis fault has occurred. Two types of chassis faults can be reported, depending on
the severity of the problem. Amber indicates a Warning, which means that some aspect of the AudiaFUSION chassis is not performing
within normal specication. Audio may still be passing, but if the condition causing the Warning is not corrected, chassis failure may occur.
Red indicates an Alarm, which means that some aspect of the AudiaFUSION chassis has failed and audio may no longer be passing
through the device. Use the Audia software to determine the specic type of chassis warning or alarm that has occurred.
Activity is a tri-color LED that illuminates to show the conguration status of the AudiaFUSION unit. If the LED is dark, there is no conguration in the unit. A green LED indicates that the unit is congured, and an amber LED indicates that the unit is congured and in standby. Standby only occurs when a unit has been designated as a secondary failover device in the conguration. A red LED indicates a conguration load failure.
Status is a tri-color LED that indicates the health of the AudiaFUSION hardware. A green LED indicates that the unit powered up normally. A ashing amber LED is shown briey during the power-on self test and should turn solid green upon a successful start up. A red LED indicates that the unit experienced a problem during the power-on self test.
AIS has no function at this time and is in place for possible future use.
Power is a green LED that illuminates when power is applied to the unit.
