CHAPTER 2: Local Operation
Operation
The iVAM1-12G can be operated easily and simply from controls on its front panel,
as described in this chapter. It may be accessed remotely in two ways, via the
Wohler Web GUI for administrative purposes or by third party equipment via
Application Programming Interface (API) commands. The Wohler Web GUI is
described in Chapter 4 of this manual. The API commands are described in
Appendix E of this manual.
Startup
The iVAM1-12G will begin its startup process when it is connected to power. There
is no power switch. It is normal for the product to require about 45 seconds to start
up and be ready to use.
When the iVAM1-12G completes its startup, the
Status
indicator will turn green.
Depending upon optional settings, all channel pairs will either be in the muted
condition or set in a predetermined way. You may then use the
Source
and
Channel
controls to enable only the program channels you want to hear.
Front Panel
The front panel is shown in Figure 2-1.
