 AMS 
APAD control devices (one in theater room + six rooms) or six C2N-DBF12 control 
devices (plus an additional six on the AAE if connected). Observe the following 
when connecting hardware to the AMS. 
NOTE: Other sources (analog and digital) can be connected, but cannot be 
controlled from the AMS or connected control devices. 
•  Tuner Cards (Optional): Tuner cards must be installed in slots 1 and 2. In 
the out-of-the-box configuration, a card cannot be installed in slot 3. 
Analog source input ports 1 and 2 are unavailable for other sources when a 
tuner card is installed in slot 1. Analog source input ports 3 and 4 are 
unavailable for other sources when a tuner card is installed in slot 2. For 
information on connecting antennas to a tuner card, refer to the respective 
tuner card’s guide. 
NOTE: If the AMS is powered down and the tuner card(s) are changed, 
the previously saved source names will be assigned to the new card when 
the AMS is powered. For example, if an ATC-AMFMXM card has been 
replaced with an ATC-AMFMSR card, the AMS will retain the source 
names (i.e. AM, FM, XM, or custom) that were assigned to the 
ATC-AMFMXM card. To have the AMS recognize the new cards and use 
the default source names (S1 AM/FM, S1 XM, etc.), restore the default 
settings as described on page 55. 
•  CEN-IDOC (Optional): The audio output of the CEN-IDOC must be 
connected to source input port 5 on the AMS when using the out-of-the-box 
configuration. The CEN-IDOC and AMS must be connected to the same 
DHCP router. 
•  AAS Devices (Optional): Analog source input ports 7 through 10 are 
reserved for the different variations of the AAS. The AAS and AMS must 
be connected to the same DHCP router. 
⇒  AAS-1: The audio output of the AAS-1 must be connected to analog 
source input port 7. 
⇒  AAS-2: Audio output A of the AAS-2 must be connected to analog 
source input port 7 and audio output B must be connected to analog 
source input port 8. 
⇒  AAS-4: Audio output A of the AAS-4 must be connected to analog 
source input port 7. Audio output B must be connected to analog 
source input port 8. Audio output C must be connected to analog 
source input port 9, and audio output D must be connected to analog 
source input port 10. 
•  Control Devices (Optional): Any combination of six APADs or 
C2N-DBF12 devices can be connected to any of the six NET ports on the 
rear of the AMS. If an AAE is connected, six more APADs or C2N-DBF12 
devices can be connected. 
NOTE: The APAD and AMS front panel are the only control devices that 
can control the theater room when using the out-of- the box functionality. 
•  AAE (Optional): One AAE can be connected to the AMS’ analog audio 
input ports.
