The initial GUI will come up with the Preset list open but locked. For now, touch the “Setup” icon button at the top-left
corner of the screen. This brings up the Network, Livewire and System setup screens with the System screen as the
default.
Note here that the Overall Bypass switch should always be set to “OFF” or no processing will take place! Be careful
never to turn this on unless you are running a proof!
Before you begin, be sure your Omnia.11 is running the current software which is shown in the orange System block
near the top of the screen. It should read “Version Omnia11: 1.4 (xxxx). You can ignore what’s in the parentheses. If
the version shown is 1.1, you can update via download from here:
If the version shown is 1.03 or lower, please contact Omnia customer support for assistance. Contact
information is at the end of this document.
4. Touch the appropriate icon buttons to setup your network parameters, activate Livewire (only if needed) and change the
unit’s password (default is “omnia” without the quotes). NOTE: The same password is used for both front panel and remote
browser access.
5. Touch the “ADJ” icon button near the top-left of the screen to return to the main screen and then touch “Input” to
bring up the Input menu and metering. If the “Basic” tab is not selected, touch it to select it. From the “Input Source” drop-
down, select the Analog, AES/EBU or Livewire input as appropriate for your installation. If your audio source is providing
an audio feed you should then see meter activity on the bargraph meters.
6. While driving the inputs with typical program material at normal operating level, adjust the appropriate “Master” Input
Gain control until the peak-reading input bargraph meters are reading just “into the yellow” (about –15 to –12 dBFS or so). If
the left/right audio levels coming into the Omnia.11 are somewhat unbalanced, you can adjust the “Right Trim” control to
adjust the level of the right channel alone over a limited range.
7. Touch the “Output” icon button at the top-right of the screen to bring up the Output menu and metering. If the “Basic”
tab is not selected, touch it to select it. Touch the “FM Options” button on the left side of the Menu Area and ensure that the
Pre-Emphasis, Diversity Delay (if present) and BS-412 settings are correct for your system and your location.
