System Overview The Digital Audio System distributes four sources to up to sixteen zones, with features such as access to digital audio content from Internet Radio, streaming services, and networked devices, as well as analog components. It is controllable through the system’s amplified keypads, as well as convenient iOS and Android apps for mobile devices. The system begins with the Digital Audio Distribution Module (AU7000) which distributes up to four audio sources to four zones.
Controllers The Digital Audio System can be controlled by smartphones, tablets and by the AU7010-XX Keypad. For controlling the system via smartphone or tablet, free applications are available for both Android and iOS devices through the Google Play and App Stores. Please search for ‘On-Q Digital Audio’ to download the app.
What’s in the Enclosure? Modules The Digital Audio System is comprised of enclosure-based modules, as well as keypad and input devices located throughout the home. The heart of the system, the Digital Audio Distribution Module (AU7000), as well as the Digital Audio Power Distribution Module (PW1020), are required for every system. Depending on a system’s specific configuration, however, the enclosure might also include the Digital Audio Input Module (AU7001) and/or Digital Audio Expansion Module (AU7004).
What’s in the Wall? Keypads & Inputs In addition to the enclosure-based modules, every Digital Audio System also includes use of in-wall Digital Audio Amplified Keypads (AU7010-XX) in every zone. Each keypad provides both the amplification for a specific zone, as well as convenient access to core controls, such as power on/off, volume up/down, mute, and source selection.
The Control App - Getting Around Zones Pane (Rooms) Offering complete control of a Digital Audio System, the free applications (apps) available for Android and iOS devices provide both simple navigation and a complete view of a system’s current status. It all starts with the zones, or rooms, a system includes. In this example, we will use two zones, the Family Room and the Living Room. When all zones are off (not playing music), all available zones will display in the bottom left hand corner of the screen.
Sources Pane Also on the left hand side of the app screen, the Digital Audio System’s available sources will be displayed. The example below shows a system with two Digital Audio Input Modules and one Digital Audio Global Source. This example is showing two Digital Audio Input Modules as sources one and two (identified by “select music...”) and one Global Source Input (identified by “source 3”).
Whole House Control This area of the application provides global commands that affect all zones simultaneously.
Volume Control Volume can be controlled by sliding the fader, or incrementally increased by tapping the plus (+) or minus (-) buttons. If a single zone is playing, adjusting the volume will affect that single zone.
Digital Source Selection This panel allows users to select their digital audio sources, such as streaming services or digital content stored in a networked music library or even on a mobile device. (For how to set up streaming services, see page 20.
Currently Playing When a source is selected in the sources pane (located on the left), its metadata is displayed at the top of the app.
Transport Controls Various digital audio services provide transport controls, which display in the designated pane below, for added interaction with the audio content (such as the ‘thumbs up’ and ‘thumbs down’ functions for Pandora). Please note no transport controls will display when an analog source is selected.
Playing Queue The Playing Queue displays additional content details, such as the next track, for the currently selected source. Please note the available information in this pane will vary by source.
Settings The gear icon in the top right corner of the app screen accesses the system’s settings. Within Settings, you can add zones, setup additional streaming services, or manually access software updates.
Wall Devices The AU7010 Digital Audio Amplified Keypad The Digital Audio Keypad provides the amplification that powers the speakers in the zone and provides access to core control functions such as volume up/ down, mute, power on/off, source selection and access to preset favorites. To set a favorite, select the desired source and adjust volume to a preferred level, then press and hold the ‘F1’ button until all the lights on the keypad flash indicating the favorite has been set.
The AU7007 Global Source Input The Digital Audio Global Source Input (AU7007-XX) introduces analog sources into the Digital Audio System for global access through all zones. Sources connect to the Digital Audio Global Source Input either through a stereo 3.5mm line cable, in the case of a MP3 player, or through an adapter cable for 3.5mm to RCA connection, in the case of Cable Box or gaming consoles. The source is then selectable through both keypad and app control. 3.
The AU7008 Local Source Input Similar to the AU7007-XX, the Digital Audio Local Source Input (AU7008-XX) also introduces analog sources into the Digital Audio System. However, it is for localized access within the specific zone where it is connected. Selection of the AU7008 is done at the keypad via the Source Selection button or through the application. 3.
The AU7100 Digital Audio Bluetooth Receiver The AU-7100 Bluetooth receiver was specially designed to fit into the AU-7007 Global SOurce Input and AU-7008 Local Source Input. This bluetooth receiver offers one thousand unique SSID names, multiple units can be deployed in a single installation and uniquely identified.
