CDi DriveCore Series Operation Manual
Using HiQnet Audio Architect
Configuring Inputs
The Input Configuration panel can be accessed by clicking the Input Configuration 
button from the Input Selector panel (see Figure 35).
The Input Configuration panel (Figure 36) allows you to adjust signal levels entering 
the amplifier from the various sources. The BLU link CDi DriveCore models will display 
additional BLU link (Network) inputs.
The meters in this panel display both peak and RMS input levels — the wider left meter 
shows RMS level and the right meter shows peak level for each channel. Input Mute 
buttons are available for each channel. Network Signal Status LEDs below each BLU link 
input channel provide confirmation of BLU link signal presence.
The Gain Mode option is used to set the maximum amount of gain the amplifier will 
provide. The available options are +26 dBu, +34 dBu, and +37 dBu. Note that changes to 
this setting will affect all channels.
Clicking the Advanced Settings button opens the Advanced Settings panel, where BLU 
link sample rate and mastership clock priority can be set. See "Conguring BLU link 
Clock" on page 35
 for more information.
If using one of the BLU link CDi DriveCore models, the Audio Routing button will be 
available in the Input Configuration panel (Figure 36). Clicking the Audio Routing 
button opens the BLU Link Input Channel Assignment window (see Figure 37). This is 
the traditional Audio Architect window used for assigning BLU link channels. From this 
window, any available BLU link audio streams can be assigned to the CDi DriveCore's 
inputs. Note that CDI DriveCore amplifiers provide an easier method for assigning BLU 
link input channels directly from the Input Selector panel (see Figure 35).
