CHAPTER 1: In tallation
Introduction
Overview
The iAM-M X intelligent adaptable monitors are 1RU multichannel multi-source
audio monitors with multiple standard copper connections and multiple SFP module
options facilitating high density coax and optical fiber connections. They feature
direct integration capability with Evertz, Tally, and Grass Valley routers for channel
name synchronization. The iAM-M X may also accept Audio over P signals via an
Ethernet connector. Refer to the Specifications section or contact Wohler Sales for
more information for Audio over P capabilities. The iAM-M X may be optionally
configured to allow routing of any inputs to almost any outputs.
The iAM-M X has individual channel volume controls and mute switches. With
certain exceptions related to master clock compatibility, any channel from any
source stream may be audibly monitored and mixed with the other selected
channels. The iAM-M X is small, flexible, moderately priced, and simple to operate.
ts setup configuration can easily be copied to other iAM-M X units.
Setups are created with a web browser over a network connection. Each iAM-M X
can be configured with up to 64 Presets. Nothing about the configurations of those
predefined setups can be changed from the front panel. This prevents less
experienced or hurried operators from making accidental setup changes that could
compromise their usage of the unit. t also reduces operator training to a minimum.
Safety
In truction
1. Read, keep, and follow all of these instructions; heed all warnings.
2. Do not use this equipment near water.
3. Use only a dry cloth to clean the equipment.
4. Do not block any ventilation openings.
5. Do not install near any heat source such as a radiator, heat register, amplifier, or
stove.
6. Do not attempt to plug the unit into a two-blade outlet (with only two prongs of
equal width).
Important:
By design, this monitor will only plug into a three
-
prong outlet for
your safety. f the plug does not fit into the outlet, contact an
electrician to replace the obsolete outlet.

Page 7
7. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plug
connection source on the equipment and at the socket.
8. Use only the attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
9. Unplug the equipment during lightning storms or when unused for long periods
of time.
10. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing will be required
under all of the following conditions:
a. The equipment has been damaged in any way, such as when the power-
supply cord or plug is damaged.
b. Liquid had been spilled or objects have fallen onto the equipment.
c. The equipment has been exposed to rain or moisture.
d. The equipment does not operate normally.
e. The equipment has been dropped.
Safety Symbol
Mounting
The unit is designed for a standard 19" rack. nstall it at ear/eye level for best high
frequency response and visual observation of the display screens. Please adhere to
the following clearances:
Table 1-1: Clearance Recommendations
Clearance Surface
24” Front
3” Rear
2” Sides
1.75” Top and Bottom (if either radiates heat)
0” Top and Bottom (if no heat)
Heat Di ipation
The ambient temperature inside the mounting enclosure should not exceed 40°
Celsius (104° Fahrenheit). Adjacent devices can be rack mounted (or stacked) in
proximity to the unit if this temperature is not exceeded. Otherwise, allow a 1RU
(1.75”/44.45mm) space above and below the unit for air circulation.
WARNING
:
The symbol to the left warns of electric shock hazard inside the unit.
Disconnect the power cord before removing access panels when
installing upgrades. Only qualified service personnel are to operate
the equipment with covers removed, and are to exercise caution to
avoid personal injury.

Page 8
Sympathetic Vibration
Sympathetic vibration from other equipment (cables, etc.) in the rack may be
serious enough to interfere with the unit’s sound quality. f you experience
sympathetic vibrations, use thin card stock, felt, foam, or weather-stripping
between the vibrating surfaces. Tie loose cables securely with cable ties.
Mechanical Bracing
The 1RU chassis is securely attached to the front panel. n addition, the chassis has
mounting tabs through which you attach it to the rack rail. This feature will reduce
or eliminate rear bracing requirements in many mobile/portable applications. The
weight of internal components is distributed fairly evenly around the unit.
Electrical Interference
Be careful to avoid mismatched cable types and other similar causes of undesired
reflections in digital signal systems. f severe enough, such reflections can result in
corruption of the digital data stream. As with any audio equipment, maximum
immunity from electrical interference requires the use of shielded cable; however,
satisfactory results can sometimes be obtained without it. The internal circuitry
ground is connected to the chassis.
Power
The unit comes with a standard 18 VDC / 3.9 A external power supply that connects
to an AC mains power source (100 to 240 VAC, 1.5A, 50/60Hz) using an EC power
cord.
When the mains plug or appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, the
disconnect device should remain operable.
Important
:
Heat generated by the class D
power amplifiers, power supplies,
and other components is vented by slots in the sides and back of
the unit. Therefore, as a safety precaution, you must allow proper
ventilation on these surfaces.

Page 9

CHAPTER 2: Local Operation
Startup
The iAM-M X-8 and iAM-M X-16 units (and their variants) take about a minute to
become operational after power is applied. During that time, several status
messages are shown spanning the displays on the front panel.
Front Panel
The iAM-M X-8 front panel is shown in Figure 2-1. The iAM-M X-16 front panel is
shown in Figure 2-2.
Figure 2–1: iAM-M X-8 Front Panel
Figure 2–2: iAM-M X-16 Front Panel
functions or individual items within a control (strip) group.
The audio mixer terminology of “strips” is used in this manual when referring to the
identification of the controls. The control strip display label default is to display the
input type and channel number, but may be changed in the iAM-M X Web GU to
show any displayable text or numbers.
Important:
The number
(1
-
8 or 1
-
16)
above the channel control strips does not
indicate any particular source channel number or arrangement. Strip
numbers only serve as references for channel configurations at the iAM-
M X Web GU level. Different Presets typically have different channel
numbers assigned to control strips.

1. Speaker : Audio monitoring is achieved through the use of class D amplifiers
driving two (left/right) wide range speakers.
2. Headphone Jack: A 1/4" jack for an optional headphone is provided on the
front panel. Speaker audio mutes when headphones are plugged in.
3. Channel Volume/Mute: Rotating each Channel Volume/Mute control
adjusts the individual level of each corresponding channel. Pressing this control
knob alternately mutes or unmutes the associated channel. Holding the control
knob pressed for two seconds solos the associated channel and mutes all others.
4. Ma ter Volume: This control adjusts the level of the entire mix. Note that while
there is a dedicated Ma ter Volume control on the iAM-M X-8, the iAM-M X-16
incorporates a control that can be set up to be either a Ma ter Volume control
or a 16th Channel Volume/Mute control. When the control is optioned to be a
Ma ter Volume, it control the volume of all of the channels, including channel
16. Pressing a Master Volume control alternately mutes or unmutes the entire
mix.
5. Control Strip and Level Meter : These miniature displays identify each
Channel Volume/Mute control and provide a basic 10-segment level meter for
each channel. The displays will automatically dim if the none of the front panel
controls have been used for an hour, but will brighten again when any control is
adjusted. Refer to the Channel Di play section of this chapter for further
information on the functions of the Control Strip and Level Meters.
6. Pre et/Config Button: Pressing this button activates a menu for Preset
selection and configuration status information. Refer to the Pre et/Config
Menu section of this chapter for a description of how to use this button.
7. USB: This USB 2.0 Type A connector allows you to use a flash drive (not
supplied) to perform software updates or copy system configurations to another
iAM-M X or to a PC.
8. Power Indicator: The Power indicator lights blue whenever the iAM-M X is
connected to power.

Rear Panel
The iAM-M X-8 and iAM-M X-16 rear panels are shown in Figure 2-3. They are
identical. Some variants may not contain all options (e.g. the MAD only unit).
Figure 2-3: Rear Panel Layout
1. Power Connection: The iAM-M X uses an external AC to 18V DC power
adapter. The AC inlet of the adapter is a standard EC receptacle for 100
to 240 VAC ±10%, 50/60 Hz power connection. Four regional AC power
cords, supplied per shipping region, are available.
2. GPIO: (future implementation) This DB-9 connector provides 2 input pins
and 2 output pins to perform GPIO functions as defined b the iAM-MIX
Web GUI.
3. Network Port: This Ethernet port can connect to either a LAN or to a PC
to let you customize the iAM-M X configuration. t will also allow you to
copy system configurations from one iAM-M X to another. t can also be
used to update the iAM-M X software and firmware.
4. AoIP: This Ethernet port can accept either a Dante or a Ravenna Audio
over P signal. There are different hardware option cards for each signal
and the appropriate/desired capability must be specified at order.
5. MADI BNC: This COAX input accepts an AES10 64-channel signal at 48
kHz sample rate. The COAX output is reclocked from the MAD source.
When power to the iAM-M X is not present, the COAX input and output
Important:
The monitor and power adapter have been tested as a combined
apparatus to verify compliance with applicable safety and
electromagnetic compliance standards. Use of another power adapter
provided by the user may negate the compliance or cause the
monitor to not perform properly. Wohler Technologies cannot accept
any responsibility for the outcome in such cases.
Important:
By design, the supplied AC mains power cord will only plug into a
three-prong grounded outlet for your safety. f the plug does not fit
into the outlet, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet.

are automatically connected together to allow the MAD signal to pass
through.
6. MADI Fiber SFP: (optional) This input module accepts an optical AES10
64-channel MAD input signal at 48 kHz sample rate. The SFP fiber
module may be used in conjunction with the MAD BNC connectors to
provide COAX to fiber or fiber to COAX conversion. The outputs are
reclocked. A software license must be installed for the SFP port to
function. Refer to the Sy tem Setup section in Chapter 4 and to Figure
4-8 to install software licenses.
7. Dolby Metadata: This output is not implemented at this time.
8. AES Out: By default, the BNC AES-1 jack outputs the same mixed audio
as the XLR analog outputs, as heard from speakers or headphones, but as
an AES3id pair. Other options may be set in the iAM-M X Web GU . AES
2-4 jacks may be used with Common Output Routing, a licensable feature
described in Chapter 4.
9. AES In: These four BNC jacks accept AES3id digital audio pairs at 48 kHz
sample rate. Channels are selected as AES 1-8.
10. SFP Module Cage : The two SFP cages are provided to accept one or
two optional SFP modules compatible with SD coaxial or optical signals.
Single or dual transceiver arrangements are possible. The SFP modules
are swappable for convenience. The iAM-M X must be powered off while
inserting an SPF module or else it must be power cycled after insertion.
An optional license key must be purchased to enable each module. A software
license must be installed for an SFP port to function. Refer to the Sy tem
