Note the back (rear) panel configuration:
• 12 Output Groups labeled “Output 1 – Output 12”, across the entire back panel
• One Input Group, on the far-right of the back panel
• One RS-232 port, upper-left of the back panel
• One standard power plug, upper-right of the back panel
The Input and Output Groups have simple, color-coded female RCA jack connectors for your wiring convenience. A legend on the back of
the unit corresponds to the following configuration across all of the I/O:
Right Analog Audio

In addition to the above connectors, the Input Group also includes two female F-type connecters for your RF input, labeled “Ant A” and
“Ant B” and may also appear correspondingly as “Ant 1” and “Ant 2” in some versions of the OSD menu.
Place the unit in a convenient location.
This is a good time to rack-mount your Digital Magic unit, with the 2 RU mounting hardware included.
Rubber feet also allow you to place the unit on a counter. Note that the top of the unit has openings in the grate which you should keep unob-
structed to permit air-flow to the power supply and the rest of the unit. Also, do not obstruct the IR path (a red lens on the right side of the front
panel).
Make the final connections.
Be sure to connect the power cord to the rear of the unit and to a standard wall outlet. You may also connect the RS-
232 port to your Home Theater Automation System (like Crestron, AMX, or CNMSX-Pro), or in the future use this port with your personal computer
for Digital Magic firmware upgrades.
Please see the Appendices at the end of this manual for instructions on using the RS-232 port for firmware
upgrades and external control of your Digital Magic unit.
Learn to operate the unit with its user-friendly OSD and controls.
You can use the Remote Control or use the Pushbuttons on the front panel of
the unit. A front-panel LCD also displays the current channel number (for RF inputs) or the status of the unit during menu manipulation. See the
section below for a more detailed description of the easy navigation / control of your unit and user-friendly On-Screen Display (OSD) menus.
