Atmosphere User Manual Hardware Overview AZM4 and AZM8 Front Panel 1. WiFi Enable Out of the box, the AZM is configured to connect to an existing network via the back panel ethernet port. However, there are two additional methods for connecting to the AZM for configuration, WiFi or Access Point mode, enabled from the front panel menu. If no existing network is available, it is recommended that the onboard WiFi (Access Point mode) be used for initial configuration. 2.
Atmosphere User Manual 4. Light Bar System “State” Indicator This indicator monitors the current state of the AZM. • Blue = Unit powered ON and operating properly • Flash RED = Live Fault is detected If a Fault is indicated, use the Menu Display to navigate to “Faults”, and evaluate the source of the problem, or go to the UI Dashboard and see Faults for specific cause. Fault is only cleared after resolving the issue.
Atmosphere User Manual 3. Balanced Line Outputs Zone outputs 1-4 (AZM4) or 1-8 (AZM8) are to connect to balanced line inputs, primarily for amplifiers, such as the Atmosphere AZA amplifiers, that power zone speakers. 4. GPIO (General Purpose Input Output Ports) The 3.5mm 12-way GPIO Euro block contains: • 3 x Common “C” – these are all tied to common and can be used for any terminal wiring.
Atmosphere User Manual Connections Cabling Balanced Inputs & Outputs - Use of 2 conductor w/shield for low level signals of 20-22 gauge is best. Maintain the proper polarity, + to +, – to – and shield to ground. Note: When using an unbalanced source on the 3.5mm Euro Connector, connect the GND to – with a jumper wire. (see unbalanced image in connections guide). For the RCA inputs, pre-made RCA cables can be purchased from AtlasIED to simplify interconnection to external devices. https://www.atlasied.
Atmosphere User Manual Network Connection Overview Connecting Devices to the AZM for Configuration Out of the box, the AZM is configured to connect to an existing network via the back panel ethernet port. However, there are two additional methods for connecting to the AZM for configuration. If no existing network is available, it is recommended that the onboard WiFi Access Point (Method -#3) be used for initial configuration.
Atmosphere User Manual Method-3 - Access Point Connection (Built-in WiFi creates a local wireless network for connection) • From the front panel menu enable Access Point Mode (Network>WiFi>Change Mode>Access Pt, then confirm change). • The unit will now broadcast an SSID (AtlasIED_AZM will be the default SSID) that can be found using WiFi enabled devices. • Select the now available network from the settings page on your device and connect. (The default password is AtlasIED.
Atmosphere User Manual 7. Zone Status - displays the activity of each zone output, what source feeds them, and active bar graph style indicator; Blue = signal activity, Red = clipping. A quick link “>” to each of the Zones’ settings is at the right side of the area. 8. Accessories, when connected on any of the A-B-C-D Bus-ports, will be automatically detected by the AZM. When detected, the accessory image will be displayed on this page by type and quantity.
Atmosphere User Manual 1. The configured mono source named “Mic-1” is displayed. As the list of input sources grows, the order can be sorted by selecting the Move Up/Down icon at left. 2. Sources shows one of 14 (AZM8) green LED style indicator for each input source that is assigned to an input port. 3. “Gate” status indicator shows: Yellow = active (gate closed), Gray = gate open. 4.
Atmosphere User Manual RCA Inputs - Mono 1. Displays rear panel and identifies physical location of the RCA mono-summed input for wiring. Navigation tabs for Gate, De-Esser, Compressor, Equalizer, and Auto-Gain. (same as Mic/Line). 2. Shows input type and port select, “Change Type or Ports” to re-configure if desired. 3.
Atmosphere User Manual RCA Inputs - Stereo 1. Stereo sources require selecting a Left and Right input port which requires using two RCA Inputs. 2. Using the stereo-summed RCA inputs requires splitting the Left/Right RCA cable between two input ports for true Left/Right stereo. (In this example, the Left + to + input 7 and Right – to + input 8) 3.
Atmosphere User Manual 3. The dynamic settings can be adjusted with left or right arrows or by entering the desired number. The dynamic settings are defined as follows: • Threshold: the signal level required to engage the Gate. • Attack Time: amount of time to fully engage (Gate, De-Esser, Compressor, Limiter) after signal level increases beyond the threshold. • Hold Time: amount of time (Gate, De-Esser, Compressor, Limiter) is held after the signal level decreases below the threshold.
Atmosphere User Manual Compressor 1. A compressor is a dynamic setting that can automatically reduce peaks in volume and smooth out a radically changing signal. It is used differently depending on what instrument or signal is being tamed. Compressing reduces the peak levels by squashing the sound into more even levels, reducing channel clipping, while remaining loud. A good setting sounds natural and rich. The art of setting up a compressor correctly takes some practice.
Atmosphere User Manual Equalizer 1. Equalizers allow raising or lowering the level of individual frequencies or ranges (bands) of frequencies to improve the overall sound of a source signal. Narrow bands can also be set to remove problems, like feedback or an acoustically induced low end. 2. EQ Enable/Bypass in real-time; Adjustable frequency and Q controls for each band. 3. Enable/Disable Filter by band and chose filter type selections: • Band 1 types include: 1. PEQ 2. Low Shelf 3.
Atmosphere User Manual Auto-Gain Control When stepping to a microphone, everyone speaks with a different level of voice projection; some almost whisper and some sound like they are shouting. Background music levels can be inconsistent between tracks. These are just a couple examples of issues the Auto-Gain Control (AGC) can help solve. Auto-Gain attempts to maintain a consistent output level regardless of variations in input level.

Select input sources for Mix 1 channel. 3. The “X” deletes the mix and is only available in mix settings.
Atmosphere User Manual Signal Generator Input The Signal Generator Input provides a way to test, setup, and troubleshoot zones with a consistent audio source. A sine wave with frequency setting is a tone and useful in calibration throughout the system. White noise is a random signal containing equal energy per frequency, giving it a constant power spectral density. Pink noise has equal energy per octave. Octave bands are how humans hear so it is useful for setting up music levels in zones. 1.
Atmosphere User Manual Zone – Mono - General Settings Page 1. The General Settings page shows the port to wire connection to, and DSP settings pages for Priority, Crossover, Equalizer, Ambient Noise Compensation (ANC) Control, and Limiter. 2. Speaker Preset – select from a list of AtlasIED speakers and load output preset EQ tuning for that specific speaker. 3. Gain Offset adjust with -20dB to + 20dB. 4.
Atmosphere User Manual Zone - Priority The Input Priority page allows you to rank audio sources for each zone by importance to mitigate a conflict where two sources try to play at the same time. The higher priority source will always play over the lower priority source. 1. The High Priority GPI is permanently set to the highest priority. 2. Message Player– select the “swap” button to arrange whether Msg Player or RMS Ducker has higher priority after GPI HP input. The top selection is highest priority. 3.
Atmosphere User Manual Zone - Equalizer 1. Equalizers allow raising or lowering the level of frequencies or ranges (bands) of frequencies to improve the overall sound of a source signal. Narrow bands can also be set to remove problems, like feedback or an acoustically induced low end. 2. EQ Enable/Bypass in real-time. 3. Enable/Bypass filter by band. 4. Choose each band filter type. Selections include: PEQ, Low Shelf, High Shelf, and Notch. Then, adjust Frequency, Gain, and Q/Slope. 5.
Atmosphere User Manual Zone - Ambient Noise Compensation - ANC Ambient Noise Compensation works in conjunction with the X-ANS (Ambient Noise Sensor Accessory; see X-ANS install placement rules). The X-ANS is installed in the zone where the noise levels vary depending on activity and where the audio level needs to be managed so it can always be heard. For example, this can be used for keeping an announcement clear and intelligible above the changing ambient noise in the zone.
Atmosphere User Manual 6. Enables Auto Mode. Like a smart thermostat, the system will learn the ideal noise-compensating gains to apply as the end-user adjusts zone gains while the ANS sensor is assigned to the zone. Because of this, Auto Mode should be used in a system where the end-user will have control over zone gains via Main UI, Virtual Wall Controller, or C-V / C-ZSV accessories.
Atmosphere User Manual Ambient Noise Sensor Placement Correct placement of the X-ANS Ambient Noise Sensor is a critical, aspect of a good system installation. The X-ANS provides real-time noise level measurements to the Atmosphere’s system that, in turn, allows the system to continuously adjust the zone output level to maintain an intelligible announcement above the current noise level in the zone.
Atmosphere User Manual RULE 2: The sensor must be placed far enough away from the audience as not to pick up on individual conversations. Placing the sensor too close to the source of ambient noise will cause the system to adjust primarily based on noise in one small location. In most systems, the ambient noise that is being detected is due to crowds of people moving into and out of the zone.
Atmosphere User Manual RULE 4: The sensor should be placed towards the middle of the zone with nearly equal distance between the sensor and immediately adjacent loudspeakers. The reason behind this rule is to prevent similar issues encountered when considering Rule 1. If a sensor is located too close to any one speaker, the sound from that speaker could easily mask the ambient noise level from the sensor while an announcement is in progress.
Atmosphere User Manual Limiter 1. The Output Limiter is used primarily for taming transient peaks to keep the output signal strength below a specified level. This can help prevent damage to loudspeakers in the event of unintended loud signals like the drop of a microphone. When Zones are Mono or Stereo, only the Main Limiter is displayed. When a Sub is added, a separate limiter is available to tame the energy of the Sub so it doesn’t affect the Main. 2. Enable On/bypass and Active indicator. 3.
Atmosphere User Manual Zone-Groups Overview The Groups feature, also referred to as Room Combine, allows zones to be assigned to a group and then combined and uncombined by the following actions: Manually (using the “Combine” toggle), GPI, Scheduled event in a scene, or Recall as a routine. The Group also allows a source to be assigned to overtake the individual zone sources when the zones are combined. The Zones page is where you add and configure the groups.
Atmosphere User Manual Group Combine (Room Combine) - Active Active 1. When the group “Combine” is activated, the zones in the group will show “Combined within” group name (Rm 1+2) and zone levels will be grayed-out. The zone level is now determined by the group primary fader + zone offset fader. 2. The active source for the entire group is Mic-1. Select “Show Zones” to adjust settings for each zone and “Hide Zones” to close the dropdown group settings. 3.
Atmosphere User Manual Message Player Overview The message player feature allows uploading and configuring audio files to the AZM messages storage library where they can then be selected and used by the system to play a message, tone, bell, or chime, as a stand-alone function or as part of system events, schedules, or triggered third party device functions. Messages Audio files, once uploaded, can then be configured and recalled as a Message Event in the following ways: • As a Routine.
