connection will cause the Source Selection
block to switch to the corresponding audio
input channel, and the corresponding logic out
connection will be at a logic high. All other
logic outputs will be low.

Double clicking on a Source Selection block produces a
control window.

Level (dB) adjusts the level (-100 to 12 dB) of the source
connected to that channel’s input.

Source Selection buttons are used to select the input
source that is routed to the audio output connector of the
Source Selection block. If the user right clicks a source
selection button, this produces a dialog box that allows
customization of the text that is displayed on that button.
This dialog box can be minimized to create user control
surfaces (see Customizing Component Objects).

RED-1

Remote Ethernet Device 1 (RED-1) is an external remote control panel that integrates with Audia systems via Ethernet,
using a single CAT5 cable for control and Power-over-Ethernet (PoE). RED-1 allows for the selection of up to 32 control
items. A control item can be the initiation of a logic event (such as a preset recall or a source selection), selection of a
volume assignment, or both. Volume assignments may be individual or ganged levels within the layout, including Level
Control blocks, as well as levels within other component blocks (such as Input/Output blocks, Mixers, Equalizers, etc).

When a RED-1 block is first placed into the layout, an
initialization dialog box appears.

Logic Out specifies the number of logic connection
points (0 to 32) on the RED-1 block. These connection
points are typically wired to Remote Preset or Source
Selection blocks but can also be used as general-
purpose logic inputs.

Device ID is the name given to each RED-1 block and
should correspond to the Device ID of a physical remote
panel. No two RED-1 blocks in any layout may have the
same Device ID; however, multiple RED-1 panels may
have the same Device ID. In that case, the panels’
functions are identical and governed by the RED-1
block with the corresponding Device ID.

RED-1 is represented in the layout as a
block with a number of logic connection
points (determined by the Logic Out setting
when the block is created), plus a DF logic
output node, which outputs logic high when
at least one like-named RED-1 unit is
discovered on the network.
