MAX Servers - Setup and Configuration
23
MAX Servers: HT Home Theater and MMS Multimedia Servers
Note
: The server will not allow you to assign a module to an output/zone that is already in use.
Select
Output Module Setup > View
to review the current
output/zone assignments.
3.
In the
Enter Serial Number
field, enter the
Setup Serial (Key) Number
. This number is printed on a
decal located on the bottom of each AVM/AVP enclosure. The system will notify you that the AVP
(or AVM) has been added to the system.
4.
Select
OK
to return to the Output Module Setup menu, select
OK
again to return to the main menu.
5.
Select
Restart MAX daemon
.
Adding MAX-AOM Audio-Only Modules
Complete these steps for each MAX-AOM module that you want to add to the HT:
1.
In the MAX Admin Menu, select
Output Module Setup > Add Output Module > AOM
.
2.
In the
Enter Output Number
field, specify the first of up to 4 outputs on the server that you want to
assign to this AOM (range = 1 - 33).
Each AOM requires up to 4 server outputs to accommodate the 4 audio output/zones provided
by each AOM. Since the MAX-HT12 supports two AOMs (one on each USB port), you can
assign up to 8 server outputs. Select
OK
.
3.
In the
Enter USB Port Number
field, enter the number of the USB port (
1
or
2
) on the server that this
MAX-AOM will be physically connected to. Select
OK
.
4.
In the
Enter AOM Output Number
field, specify which audio output/zone on the MAX-AOM (1-4)
you are adding to the specified server output. Select
OK
.
5.
A message is displayed to notify you that the AOM module has been added to the system. Select
OK
to return to the Output Module Setup menu.
Repeat these steps to assign each of the AOM’s four audio output/zones to a USB port and
Output number on the server.
Notes
:
Always assign 4 consecutive server outputs to each MAX-AOM, even if you don’t plan to use
all of the AOM’s outputs right away.
Assign the 4 server outputs (per AOM) starting either with output #1 (if there are no AVPs/
AVMs on this server), or immediately after the last output assigned to an AVP or AVM.
To avoid potential confusion later, do not mix AOM outputs and AVP/AVM outputs on the
server.
6.
Select
Restart MAX daemon
.
Additional Information on USB Ports: MMS-01S, -02S and 02SB Servers
The 2 built-in audio outputs on the MMS-01S, -02S and -02SB servers utilize the internal
USB 1
port on
the server. To add an external AOM module to the MMS-01S server, it is important to understand that:
The two built-in audio outputs occupy audio outputs 1 and 2 on USB 1, leaving outputs 3 and
4 on USB port 1 open.
The USB port on the rear panel of the server which is used to connect an additional external
MAX-AOM module is
USB 2
.
If you connect an external AOM module to USB 2, the four audio outputs on that AOM will
use ports
3
and
4
on
USB 1
(the ports that are unused by the two built-in audio outputs), as
well as ports
1
and
2
on
USB 2
(as indicated in the table below):
MAX-AVMs use a Setup “Serial” Number; MAX-AVPs use a Setup “Key” Number.
