Audia is a networkable, decentralized audio system, which is easy to configure touch screens, rotary encoders, and contact switches RS-232 serial port for simple connection to 3rd party control devices Internal 80 watt universal switching power supply Multiple analog I/O configurations (8x8, 4x12, 12-in/4-out (12x4); and 4-in/12-out (4x12). Inputs and outputs shall be analog, with internal 24-bit A/D Mixers; Equalizers; Filters; Crossovers; Dynamics; Routers; Delays; Controls; Meters; Generators; and Diagnostics. Once a category is selected, the pre-defined components available from that category will be displayed underneath the category heading. A vertical scroll bar will appear on the right if the available components cannot all be displayed. To place a Component Object, simply drag Mixers; Equalizers; Filters; Crossovers; Dynamics; Routers; Delays; Controls; Meters; Generators; and Diagnostics. Each category is represented by an icon, with a drop-down menu to the right. To place a Component Object, first choose the appropriate category, then select the desired component from the drop-down menu. Once the component has been selected, simply left-click at the desired location on the Layout. Left-clicking a category icon will select the component which occurs first in the menu list. When using the Object Toolbar to place components into the Layout, certain components will present the user with a pop-up window of configuration options. The Object Toolbar also provides the option of either a select cursor or a text cursor. The select cursor is for component selection, placement, wiring, etc. The text cursor is for placing Text Objects into the Layout, for system design labeling purposes. When using the Object Toolbar, the Processing Library may be closed, increasing the width of the Layout. The Object Toolbar may be opened/closed from the View Menu. The location and shape of all toolbars may be changed to fit the users preference. Format Toolbar The Format Toolbar allows customization of text Size; Bold; Italics; Align Left; Center; Align Right; Back Color; Text Color; Fore Color; Hilite Color; Pen Width; and Hatch Style. The Format Toolbar may be opened/closed from the View Menu. The location and shape of all toolbars may be changed to fit the users preference. Tools Font Provides a drop-down menu of lettering styles for use in Component or Text Objects. Size Provides a drop-down menu of lettering sizes for use in Component or Text Objects. 12 Bold Changes the selected text to a thicker version of the chosen font. Italic Changes the selected text to an italicized version of the chosen font. Align Left Aligns the selected text to the left margin of the Component or Text Object. Center Centers the selected text between the left and right margins of the Component or Text Object. Align Right Aligns the selected text to the right margin of the Component or Text Object. 13 Back Color Provides a drop-down menu for changing the background color of the Layout, or of selected Component or Text Objects. Left-clicking the icon applies the color which was selected last. Text Color Provides a drop-down menu for changing the text color in selected Component or Text Objects. Left-clicking the icon applies the color which was selected last. Fore Color Provides a drop-down menu for changing the color of the lower and right borders, as well as any internal Hatching, of the selected Component, Line, or Text Objects. Left-clicking the icon applies the color which was selected last. Hilite Color Provides a drop-down menu for changing the color of the upper and left borders of the selected Component or Text Objects. Left-clicking the icon applies the color which was selected last. 14 Pen Width Provides a drop-down menu for changing the width of line used for the borders of the selected Component, Line, or Text Objects. Left-clicking the icon applies the width which was selected last. Hatch Style Provides a drop-down menu for changing the hatching style within the selected Component or Text Objects. Left-clicking the icon applies the style which was selected last. 15 Layout Toolbar The Layout Toolbar affects certain aspects of Layout, such as the grid, rulers, zooming, Object Inspector; Layers Sheet; Toggle Grid; Toggle Ruler; Birds Eye View; Zoom In; Zoom Out; Zoom 1:1; Zoom Level; Pack Objects; Align Edges; Center In View; Space; Make Same Size; and To Front Or Back. The Layout Toolbar may be opened/closed from the View Menu. The location and shape of all toolbars may be changed to fit the users preference. Tools Property Sheet Provides an editable table of attributes regarding the Layout and its associated objects. Only Display Attributes are shown for the Layout (and Lines). Both Display and DSP Attributes are shown for Component Objects. see Layout Property Sheet see Line Property Sheet see Object Property Sheet 16 Layout Property Sheet Provides an editable table of attributes regarding the Layout. Only Display Attributes are shown for the Layout. Most Display Attributes duplicate functions found in the Format Toolbar However, some exceptions are as follows: PrintScale is entered as decimal information, where 0.5 = 50% or 2.0 = 200%. ViewLayers opens the Layers Sheet. Tag is for user comments or other identifying text. The thumb-tack (upper-left) allows the Property Sheet to remain open while selecting other objects. 1By1 (upper-right) allows any group of selected components (multi-selection) to appear on the menu. Line Property Sheet Only Display Attributes are shown for Lines (component connections). Most Display Attributes duplicate functions found in the Format Toolbar. However, some exceptions are as follows: Object Code is a non-editable indentifier. Layer determines which layer the Line is assigned to. Tag is for user comments or other identifying text. The thumb-tack (upper-left) allows the Property Sheet to remain open while selecting other objects. 1By1 (upper-right) allows any group of selected components (multi-selection) to appear on the menu. 17 Object Property Sheet Both Display and DSP Attributes are shown for component objects. Most Display Attributes duplicate functions found in the Format Toolbar. However, some exceptions are as follows: Object Code is a non-editable indentifier.
