Audio Switching Boards (ASB and ASB-DAN) – Rules for System Setup
Audio Switching Boards must be installed as pairs. They will not work unless both an input and an output board are
installed in the same enclosure (if the enclosure is an Enova DGX 6400, two input and two output boards are required).
When adding ASB Boards to an enclosure that does not already have them installed, be sure to use the correct board set
designated for the enclosure size:
FG1061-716 – Audio Switching Board Set for the Enova DGX 800/1600 (contains 2 boards)
FG1061-732 – Audio Switching Board Set for the Enova DGX 3200 (contains 2 boards)
FG1061-764 – Audio Switching Board Set for the Enova DGX 6400 (contains 4 boards)
FG1061-832 – Dante Audio Switching Board Set for the Enova DGX 800/1600/3200 (contains 2 boards)
FG1061-864 – Dante Audio Switching Board Set for the Enova DGX 6400 (contains 4 boards)
Enova DGX 6400 Audio Switching Boards must be installed in specific expansion board slots:
Audio Switching Input Boards (2) in the left and right slots immediately above standard input board slots
Audio Switching Output Boards (2) in the left and right slots immediately below standard output board slots
Audio Switching Boards, Dante Audio Switching Boards, and Audio Insert/Extract Boards are not compatible. Do not install
mixed types of expansion boards in the same enclosure. If two types of boards are present, the audio subsystem is
disabled.
For information on routing of audio signals (including the downmixed audio input) using these boards, see page 164.
NOTE: Enova DGX 100 Series switchers contain an audio-only virtual matrix (VM2). If ASB Boards are in the enclosure, you can route
audio switches on this matrix. If no audio boards are installed, route and disconnect commands are queued until audio boards are
present, while all other commands are NACK’d.
Upgrading the Enclosure
The following procedure explains how to send a firmware (*.KIT) file to the enclosure to enable boards to work with the new CPU.
NOTE: EDIDs are not automatically updated when firmware is upgraded. To update input board EDIDs after an enclosure firmware
upgrade, you must use the reset factory DGX_SHELL command (see page 251).
To upgrade the enclosure (including boards):
1. Download and unzip the “Enova DGX 100 Series Enclosure Firmware.” .zip file:
a. Navigate to the Enova DGX 100 Series product page that matches your system at www.amx.com.
b. Locate the Firmware Files section on the right side of the page and select the .zip file for download.
c. Unzip and open the downloaded file folder.
2. Open the latest version of NetLinx Studio and navigate to the OnLine Tree.
3. From the Settings tab, select Workspace Communication Settings, and click on Default Settings.
4. In the Network tab, click New, enter the system’s new IP address (available through the control panel menu), click OK. Select
the system and click OK.
5. Click OK to close the Workspace Communications Settings dialog box.
6. In the OnLine Tree, right-click and select Refresh System OnLine Tree.
7. Optional (recommended) – Launch the System Configuration interface on a PC or device to monitor the upgrade.
a. On the enclosure’s control panel, navigate to Function/Setup Options/Master Info/IP Address.
b. Open a web browser on a PC or device on the same network as the Enova DGX and enter the system’s IP address in the
browser bar.
c. Navigate to System/Devices and click on Switcher Update Status. Continue monitoring through the rest of the process.
8. In the OnLine Tree, right-click on the 5002 device and select Firmware Transfer.
