Audio Authority AVAtrix, 1156 and 1166 User Manual 1
Professional Operation
The Professional mode is designed to allow easy control
of 1176 (AVAtrix) remote Wallplate outputs from the
Model 1166 or 1156. If your system does not include
an 1176, use the Residential Mode. Switch between
Residential and Professional by touching the front panel
Menu key or by pressing the Zero key on the remote.
The Professional screen displays the source currently
assigned to each Wallplate or zone and allows you
to choose a new source for each Wallplate or zone. A
special zone view is also available for a more detailed
overview of the sources assigned to each zone. If the
Wallplate location is equipped with an infrared receiver,
the source can also be selected using an infrared remote control in the area where the Wallplate is located.
In Professional mode, the Unit screen displays the array of remote outputs (if Model 1176s are present).
Along the bottom, it displays the six short names of the sources, which of these sources is currently selected
to the Main Output (highlighted short name), and which sources are currently active (overscored short name).
To the left it displays the virtual Main, All and Zone keys. Note: to access Main on the remote, double-press
the Source key.
