Quick Start Guide
1.
Install an Input Module
Ensure at least one input module is installed in the AR-DM2-B audio monitor. If no modules are installed, see
Module Installation (page 15)
for detailed instructions.
2.
Connect an Audio Source
Connect an audio source to the audio monitor. Depending on the chosen input module, the signal could be SDI
video with embedded audio, AES/EBU digital audio, analog audio, etc. Some modules may require a breakout
cable for the appropriate connections. See module specifications for details.
3.
Power On the Audio Monitor
Supply power to the audio monitor by connecting included AC power cable to an AC power source (100-240 V @
50/60 Hz). The Power LED on the front panel will illuminate green.
4. Select an Input Module
Using the
SRC
switch on the front panel, choose the module location (1-4) to which the input is connected (Modules
are identified as numbers 1-4, with location no.1 on the far left if facing the rear of the audio monitor). The LED bar
graphs will then immediately show which channels have an audio signal present. You may not hear audio as yet.
5. Choose a Monitor Mode
To hear one audio channel at a time, press the
Single
button. To hear a stereo pair of channels, press the
Pair
button. Use the
Left
and

buttons to switch channels or channel pairs. The LEDs under each bar graph will
indicate which channels are selected. To hear channels 9-16, press the
9-16
button.
