Part 15 of the Federal Communication Commission Rules and Regulations has established Radio
Frequency (RF) emission limits to provide an interference free radio frequency spectrum. Many
electronic devices produce RF energy incidental to their intended purpose.
These rules place electronic equipment into two classes, A and B, depending on the intended use.
Class A devices are those that may be expected to be installed in a business or commercial environment.
Class B devices are those that may be expected to be installed in a home or residential environment. The
FCC requires devices in both classes to be labeled with the interference likelihood and additional
operating instructions. The rating label on the equipment will show which class the product is (A or B).
Class A product will not have an FCC logo. Class B equipment will have an FCC logo. The information
statements differ on the two classes.
Class A Equipment
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be
required to correct the interference at personal expense.

Modifications
The FCC requires the user to be notified that any changes or modifications made to Avid hardware that
are not expressly approved by Avid Technology may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Cables
Connections to Avid hardware must be made with shielded cables with metallic RFI/EMI connector
hoods in order to maintain compliance with FCC Rules and Regulations.
PRODUCTS WITH MULTIPLE POWER I NP UTS :
WARNING: Each power input is intended to be connected to a separate branch circuit. Risk of high
leakage exists if multiple inputs are connected to a single source and protective earth is not present. A
QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON shall verify that each socket-outlet from which the equipment is to be
powered provides a connection to the building protective earth. If any do not provide this connection,
the QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON shall arrange for the installation of a PROTECTIVE EARTHING
CONDUCTOR from the separate protective earthing terminal to the protective earth wire in the building.

LED Safety Notices
Avid hardware might contain LED or Laser devices for communication use. These devices are compliant
with the requirements for Class 1 LED and Laser Products and are safe in the intended use. In normal
operation the output of these laser devices does not exceed the exposure limit of the eye and cannot
cause harm.
Standard to which conformity is declared: (IEC 60825-1)
Optical connections are located on the rear panel and are typically labeled “Optical” or “SPDIF/ADAT.”
The exact location of optical connections is identified more clearly elsewhere in the documentation for
the Avid hardware device.

Rack-mount Requirements
The following rack-mount requirements are listed below:
• Elevated Operating Ambient — If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment might be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consider installing the
equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the
manufacturer.
• Reduced Air Flow — Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised. Do not block vents.
• Mechanical Loading — Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is
not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
• Circuit Overloading — Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
• Reliable earthing — Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular
attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for
example, use of power strips).

Table of Contents
System Startup Sequence ..........................................................................................7
See page 21 in the Max Air Operation Manual for the system startup sequence.
Description
The Max Air Console consists of a configurable number of Control Modules that comprise the Control Surface. The Max Air Control Surface is the digital control center for
all Max Air system components and communicates with them via Ethernet network
connections. Control signals are transmitted via the Ethernet switch and distributed to
the Max Air system components. No audio passes through the Control Surface.
Overview
The Max Air console must contain a CM404 center section module and can have up to
three fully loaded CM416 16-channel Modules, each with 16 physical faders. The system
can have up to 48 faders, not including the eight faders in the CM404 master section.
The CM416HL and CM416HR are half-loaded (left or right) 8-fader modules that can
be used to expand your system.

Self Test Procedure
The following pages describe the operation of standalone self-test software for the Max
Air control modules. The self-test code is designed to be invoked in a module right after
power-up and before the Single Board Computer (SBC) downloads code.
Initiating Self Test
Enter self-test by pressing the self-test enter keys shown below. This must be done before the SBC code download. If code download from the SBC occurs during the selftest, the module automatically exits self-test and executes the downloaded code. Use
the keys shown below to perform the different tests. After entering the test, use the detailed description of each test on the following pages to navigate through different
modes within a test.

3.Touch Align and follow the onscreen instructions.
When asked to touch the targets on the screen, best results are achieved by touching the
targets naturally without thinking too much about it. This aligns the touchscreen to an
individual’s hand-eye coordination.

Changing the ID of a CM416 Module
1.Power cycle the module and then simultaneously press and hold the two lower
knobs on the first strip before the module connects to the System PC (you have
about 15 seconds).
2.Set the ID using the first strip only in each CM416. Do not set the ID using strip
nine.
The CM416 displays shows “Position – 0000 Use 1st fader to set module position.”
3.Move the fader on strip one to select the ID.
The ID appears as a hexadecimal number (0=ID 1, 1=ID 2, 2=ID 3, 3=ID 4,
4=ID 5, 5=ID 6).
4.Press strip one’s fader Select key to commit to the new ID.
The module continues to boot only after committing to the change.

Fans
The CM416 modules have low-noise internal fans and a thermal sensor between the
displays on strips five and six. If a module gets too hot, the fans automatically turn on
at a low or high speed depending on the temperature. The fans turn off automatically
when the internal temperature returns to normal.
