CHAPTER 1
Introduction
Description
Installed directly into the ADAM™ Matrix Intercom system, the AIO-16 card gives 16 ports of audio IN and OUT for each
card installed (up to 17 cards) in the system. This doubles the amount of audio ports available from its predecessor the AIO-8.
The AIO-16 is hot-swappable, allowing the user to insert the card and begin using it instantaneously. Once inserted into the
system, it uses its “smart card” capability to see the backcard configuration and switches its keypanel communication protocol
accordingly.
The AIO-16 is fully compatible with AIO-8 cards. It can run side-by-side with the AIO-8, seamlessly integrating into the port
scheme already in place.
There are two AIO-16 backcard, the traditional 50-pin SCSI backcard and the new 50-pin MDR backcard which allows for a
separate data pair per keypanel port.
There are also four new breakout panels that can be used with the AIO-16 card (DB-9 breakout, RJ-45 breakout, Telco
breakout and the DB-9 Transformer Breakout), bringing the total number of breakout panels compatible with the AIO-16 to
seven.

Features
DIP Switches
NOTE: You must remove the card from the frame in order to change any DIP switch settings.
Backward Compatibility
The AIO-16 is compatible with the AIO-8 card. Tho accomplish this backward compatibility,
the AIO-16 must use an existing XCP-40-RJ12, XCP-24 (Telco) or XCP-40-DB-9 breakout
panel with the SCSI backcard.
Smart Card When the AIO-16 card is inserted into the system, it automatically figures the backcard
configuration and the protocols being used.
Breakout Panels Along with the existing breakout panels, four new panels (DB-9, Telco, RJ-45, and DB-9-T) have been specially made to integrate with the new MDR backcard. When using either the XCP-
32 DB9, XCP-48-Telco, XCP-48-RJ45, or XCP-16-DB9-T, you must use the MDR backcard.
FIGURE 1. Default DIP switch settings on the AIO-16 card (SB01).
DIP Switch 1 Controls the initial load (or reload) of the firmware.
OFF (open) Normal operation
ON (closed) Boot to GERMS monitor and ignore code in flash.
Description When the switch in the ON position, the AIO-16 card skips the firmware programmed in flash. When the switch is in the OFF position, it runs the firmware
from flash.
DIP Switches 2-7 Unused
Keep in the OFF position.
DIP Switch 8 DEBUG ONLY
Warning: DIP Switch 8 should always be left in the OFF position. It is reserved
for debugging and can have unintended consequences.

Installation
NOTE:
Before using the AIO-16 Card, you must:
•Have the new ADAM power supply installed. (P./n 9020-7516-001). For more information, see page 10.
•In a single frame system, have the Master Controller firmware 9.22.0 or higher installed.

Connections- 4-wire balanced audio. Optional RS-485 data is available to communicate with keypanels. AIO-16 can be plugged into
either a SCSI backcard or MDR backcard.
SCSI Backcard (9000-7726-002)
Backward compatibility to existing AIO-8 breakout panels. This card carries two single RS-485 data pairs; one data pair per
group of 8 keypanel ports.
MDR Backcard (9000-7726-003)
Can be connected to 1RU, 48-port RJ-45 breakout panel or to a 2RU, 32-port DB-9 breakout panel. This card has 16 RS-485
data pairs so each intelligent keypanel can communicate with the matrix separately.

•In a multi-frame system:
•Have the peripheral controller firmware 10.13.x or higher installed.
•Have the DBX firmware 1.13.0 or higher installed.
IMPORTANT!!! Use the following instructions for your initial setup of an AIO-16 card. If you do not follow these directions,
the AIO-16 card may not work properly.
To install the AIO-16 card for the first time, do the following:
1. Gently insert the AIO-16 card into the appropriate ADAM slot.
2. Lightly tighten down the AIO-16 card.
3. Carefully attach the backcard (MDR or SCSI, see Figure 4 ) to the AIO-16 card from the back of the ADAM. Verify that it
is properly seated against the AIO-16 card and is sitting firmly in the system.
4. Tighten the backcard to the frame.
5. Fully tighten down the AIO-16 from the front of the system.
NOTE: Once you have done this once, you do not have to repeat this every time.
6. Attach the desired breakout panel to the AIO-16’s backcard connector. For more information on breakout panels, see
Appendix A. For more information on Ports and Port Allocation, see “AIO-16 Ports, DBX Linking, and Interconnects” on
page 17.
