Introduction
System Components
A base Artisan system is comprised of:
¾ 1 x Artisan control surface
¾ 1 x Artisan power supply (redundant)
¾ 1 x Logitek Audio Engine
¾ 1 x PC running Logitek application software w/RS-232 connection to Engine
The Logitek Audio Engine is fitted with:
¾ 1 x AE-C6 controller card (required)
¾ 2 x SA-DSP processor cards (required)
¾ 2 x AE-PS power supplies (1 required – 2 nd optional)
¾ Up to 8 I/O cards (as specified by customer)
o IO-24A analog I/O cards (12 mono in / 12 mono out)
o IO-8D digital I/O cards (8 AES in / 8 AES out)
o NETA network card (1 per engine) – 500 channel fiber-optic network to share inputs
& outputs across multiple engines (optional)
Facilities running multiple Artisan consoles can share audio between Engines, using the NETA
network card. Additional Engines can be added to expand I/O if required. An Artisan Audio Engine
can also share audio with Audio Engines running Logitek’s radio surfaces.
Compatibility Matrix
Artisan is designed for use with Logitek Audio Engine 3.x or later. If running a facility with both
Logitek Artisan and radio consoles together, please note some cards require Artisan-specific
software.
