22 SF-16M Matrix Amplifier Installation and Operation Guide

Appendix B: Firmware Update Procedure

The latest version of firmware is available from our website on the SF-16M product page

1. Copy the latest firmware file onto a USB drive.

2. Insert the drive in the USB port on the rear panel of the SF-16M.

3. Press the menu key and navigate the firmware update menu item.

4. Follow the prompts and select the firmware file.

5. After a short delay the SF-16M reboots and performs the firmware update.

6. Once the update has finished, the SF-16M reboots and resumes operation with the new firmware version.

Appendix C: SF-16M Rack Mounting

The SF-16M is designed so that it may be installed either on a shelf or

in a standard 19-inch equipment rack. If rack mounting, remove the

feet and the cover screws adjacent to the front panel of the unit. Reuse

the cover screws to mount the rack adapters supplied with the SF-16M.

Be sure to place a spacer under the adapters at every screw location.

Secure the SF-16M to the rails of the equipment rack with the screws

supplied, and use appropriate chassis supports, such as Middle Atlantic

CSA Series.

FlexPort Module “Override” Button

The purpose of the front panel override button is to switch designated SF-16M outputs to a FPM input. A typical example

is an audio mixer, connected to a FPM-X in a conference room. When the override button is pressed, designated outputs

will switch over to the audio mixer for the duration of the override. When the override button is pressed again, all effected

outputs will switch back to the input source prior to override. Audio override is based on two key settings:

1. FPM dipswitch settings, previously configured above.
2. SF-16M audio override settings, programmed using the SF-16M PC configuration software (see page 14 or view the PC

configuration software manual for more information on audio override settings).

Audio Override with “Mix” Option Enabled

In some cases it may be desired to mix two FPM

module inputs together upon audio override. An

example would be a classroom where both a

microphone and an audio presentation need to be

heard simultaneously. To acheive this function, first

daisy chain two FPM modules and wire back to the

SF-16M. Set one FPM as “Mono 1”, and set the

other as “Mono 2”. Both FPM’s must have the “Mix”

dipswitch set to On.
