General Information
™
complements a wide array of home theater signal sources,
video displays and audio systems. It performs selection of up to six input sources by infrared control, by a
unique AutoSelect™ process, RS-232 signals, or by manual selection. These inputs may be DVI (1166 only)
or component video and digital or analog audio, or combinations of these signal types, all delivered to the
viewer with their original vividness, brightness and clarity. A special feature of the Model 1166 is its built-in
Component-to-DVI converter, which enables the DVI output to be active regardless of the type of video available at the selected input.
NOTE: This manual addresses Model 1166 and 1156 generally but also includes references to DVI capability
which is available only on the 1166. If you are installing a Model 1156, ignore any references to DVI.

corner of the back of the Model 1166. Apply power, go to the SETUP menu, choose SAVE/LOAD
FILE, and follow the instructions on the screen.
2. Stacking. Follow these steps if you are installing Models 1170, 1172, 1176 or other Audio Authority
stacking models with your 1156 or 1166. Disconnect power before performing these steps.
a. Lay the Model 1166 upside down on a protective surface, such as a terry cloth towel.
b. Remove the four feet and the bus port cover and save them and their attaching screws for later use.
c. Plug one end of the bus cable (purchased separately) into the port visible through the case openpletely seated. This bus cable carries component video, digital audio, and analog audio signals from
the 1166/56 to the other products in the stack.
d. Turn the next product to be stacked upside down (e.g. Model 1170 or 1176), thread the bus cable
through its bus ports, and engage its four threaded studs with the four threaded holes in the Model
1166 formerly occupied by the feet.
e. Tighten the hex head screws in the bottom of the stacking product in sequence a few turns each, until
they are all snug.
f. Carefully plug the bus cable into the port. Continue this stacking
procedure until all units have been stacked. Always plug the last
connector of the bus into the bottom unit, pushing any excess cable
into the empty space inside the unit. View the bus through the bus
port to be sure all plugs are fully seated. To disconnect a bus plug,
squeeze the side latches.
g. Install the bus port cover and feet you removed from Model 1166
onto the bottom unit and turn the stack right side up.
h. Set the Address dial on each Model 1172 and/or 1176 (Model 1170
does not require addressing)–set the upper-most Model 1176 address to “A”, the next one to “B”, and so on.
i. Temporarily plug in the power supplies of all units to a plug strip
so that you can turn them all on at one time. The opening screen

Audio Authority AVAtrix, 1156 and 1166 User Manual
g. If a source has HDMI but not DVI output, connect Audio Authority Model 1312 between the source
and its DVI and digital audio jacks on the Model 1166.
h. Connect the television monitor and audio system to the Output jacks, using DVI only, or both DVI
and component video ports if desired. Use either optical or coaxial digital audio outputs, but NOT
BOTH. Use the analog audio output only if the audio system lacks a digital audio input. If the TV
monitor requires HDMI, connect an Audio Authority Model 1311 DVI-to-HDMI Converter. NOTE:
Some HDMI displays will not work correctly with a DVI signal converted to HDMI after a switchon, contact the factory for assistance.
6. Model 1170 or 1176 Wallplate Hookup. If Wallplates are a part of this system, connect them to the stack
now. Caution! Do not connect A and B cables incorrectly. Do not apply system power until cables
are tested and A and B connections are verified.
a. Pull two lengths of good quality Category 5e or 6 UTP cable from the main system to each Wallplate
location. Carefully mark cables of each pair A and B; if they are connected incorrectly, damage to
the Wallplate may result. It is best to use a different cable jacket color, or label each end for A and B
to ensure proper connection.
Pair 3
b. Install an RJ-45 plug on each end, using EIA-568B pairing (pins 1-2,
3-6, 4-5, 7-8). Check each cable with a professional network cable
tester before plugging it into the 1100 Series system. Continuity testing is not adequate! The twisted pairs must be properly matched for
balanced line transmission.
c. Plug the pairs of cables into the output jacks on the Model 1170s.
Carefully plug cables A and B into the correct A and B jacks.
d. Plug a pair of cables into each Model 9878 Wallplate. Be sure to
plug cable A into jack A and cable B into jack B. Do not mount the
Wallplates permanently yet.

e. Adjust the Cable Length Compensation control on each Wallplate according to the distance of that
unit from the head end. Set the dial to the nearest number of hundreds of feet of cable distance. After
pensation setting.
f. Mount Wallplates after initial testing.
7. Initial Testing. Plug the power supply furnished with each 1100 Series product into its respective unit,
and plug the power supplies into a plug strip so that all units can be turned on at one time.
a. Power indicators on the Model 1166, all stacked units and all installed Wallplates should be on.
b. The opening screen on the Model 1166 display indicates that the unit is powered and how many expanders have been recognized. That number is zero if the
Model 1166 is used alone.
c. If you see an address error, enter the setup menu and
choose Diagnostics. The 1170/72/76 Diagnostics
screen allows real time address feedback. Make necessary adjustments to the 1176 and 1172 address dials
(see page 8) and exit.
d. Apply power to all associated equipment. Touch the
input selection keys to manually select sources to
verify video and audio signal integrity.

but all tasks may also be performed using the front panel controls or remote control. As a minimum, it is
To enter the Setup Menu, press and hold the knob, and touch the Menu key (or simply press Menu on the
remote). Use the knob to navigate to each setup option, press the knob to select it, then follow on screen
instructions (see page 15 for a Setup Menu Chart).
9. Remote Control Methods. Four different remote control methods may be used with the 1156/66.
a. Native remote; use Model 1105.
b. Source or universal remotes; commands can be learned by 1156/66 using the Learn IR Codes setup
screen (see section 10 below).
c. Home automation systems can learn the Model 1166’s IR codes along with the codes of the sources
and can output a macro containing source controls and Model 1166 selection controls. Follow the
manufacturers instructions to teach the automation system numeric 1 through 6 from the Model
1105, as needed. Some automation systems allow 1105 codes to be downloaded from the manufacturer’s website and then loaded into the automation system controller.
d. RS-232 commands. System controllers capable of RS-232 communication can be connected to the
serial port on the Model 1166. To program such controllers, refer to Appendix B in this manual.
10.Using Infrared Control.
a. If you are using standard handheld remote controls, ensure correct operation by eliminating sources of
b. If you are using a home automation system (such as Crestron, AMX, CQC, or Control4), provide a contact
emitter or blaster from the infrared system to stimulate the Model 1166’s optical IR receiver, or patch the
IR signal directly to the IR input port on the rear panel using a 3.5mm cable (see page 7).
11.Infrared Learning. In addition to using the Model 1105 remote, or using other learning remotes to send
1105 commands, the 1166 can learn to respond to existing commands from source remotes. This control
method offers versatility and precision in source selection with a small investment of time to teach the IR
commands to the 1166. Following are steps to learn IR codes from source remotes.
a. Use the Learn IR Codes setup screen to teach the Model 1166 one “key” code for each source unit.
For example, for a media player, let the Model 1166 learn its “play” key, then, when that key is
pressed to start the player, the Model 1166 will immediately select its output. On a set top box, one
might pick the “enter” key to prompt the Model 1166 to switch when a channel has been selected.
b. Audio Authority Model 1108 IR Router (included in AVAtrix) addresses the problem of controlling
multiple identical sources from a Wallplate. The Model 1108, when used with individual IR emitters
attached to the sources, routes the IR command from a Wallplate to the appropriate source only.
12. Remote Wallplates. The Cat 5 cables carrying audio and video to the Wallplates also provide a pathway
for infrared signals to be returned to the 1170 or 1176.
a. Plug an Infrared Control Receiver into the 3.5mm jack on each Wallplate used with a Model 1176
that is to have source selection capability. (Use only compatible receivers without power supply–see
Appendix A.)
12
Audio Authority AVAtrix, 1156 and 1166 User Manual
b. Infrared commands returned from a Wallplate to Model 1176 can immediately select the source to be
played on that Wallplate.
c. 1176: IR commands returned from a Wallplate to Model 1176 containing code intended for source
units or other equipment are repeated through the IR Output jack on the Model 1166. If a compatible
infrared control system is in place, and remote sensing of IR inputs from Wallplate locations is desired, patch the IR Output jack to an input of the IR control system. Do not use IR connecting blocks
other than Model 1108 (see “Using Compatible Infrared Products” in Appendix A of this manual).
d. 1170: All IR commands returned from a Wallplate to Model 1170 are repeated only through the IR
Output jack and perform no function within the switching system.

Naming the Sources
While naming the sources is not required, source names greatly enhance the usability of your entire system. It
the names can also be chosen using the 1166 front panel controls.
Each long name can be up to 13 characters, and the short names can be up to 4 characters. The text edit tools
are indicated along the bottom of the screen: Case/Number/Symbol, Skip Back, Skip Forward, Overstrike/Insert, and Delete. Touch the corresponding key to use an editing tool. The Case tool allows upper and lower
case letters, numbers, or symbols. Note: using all upper case generally yields the best results.
Customizing source names makes it easier to navigate your audio/video
system.
The text edit tools are indicated along the bottom of the screen: Case, Skip
Back, Skip Forward, Overstrike/Insert, and Delete.
Naming and Assigning Wallplate Zones
Professional mode allows the Wallplate outputs to be monitored and controlled from the 1156 or 1166 front
panel. The Zone View displays a list of up to six zones and indicates which source has been assigned to each
zone. This view makes it easy to monitor and manage the content being shown on video displays in different
rooms or areas from a central location. The number of zones is limited to six.
The Zone view allows the user to see the name of the locations and the
sources. Asterisk (*) indicates that one or more of the Wallplates in the zone
has been assigned a different source than the one shown.

To create custom zones, enter the setup menu and select Name the Zones. Choose names from a list or enter
custom short and long zone names for each zone. Exit the Name the Zones screen and select Assign Output
Zones. A view of the Assign Output Zones screen is shown above at the right. Any Wallplate can be assigned
to any or all zones, and the Main output can belong to any or all zones. Notice that each row of the grid represents one 1176 Matrix Router. To the left is the address letter of each 1176. Above is the output number of the
Wallplate output in each column.
To assign a Wallplate to a zone, use the knob or up/down/left/right keys on the remote control to highlight a
Wallplate. Touch the number key(s) of the zone(s) to which this Wallplate should belong. (Zones are numbered 1-6 as noted in th example above.) To remove a Wallplate from a zone, touch the number key again.
In the example shown above at right, both Wallplate 1 and Main belong to Zone 1 which is named LVRM.
Plate 2 belongs to BED1 (Zone 3) and so on. It is usually helpful to write down a list of Wallplates for each
zone before assigning zones, especially if your system is very large or complex.

Residential Operation
The Model 1166 or 1156 allows you to select which of up to six video/audio sources to play through your
home theater system. In addition, if you have an AVAtrix, the source being displayed at each Wallplate can
be controlled by the Model 1156/66 and, if the Wallplate location is equipped with an infrared receiver, the
source can be selected using an infrared remote control in the room where the Wallplate is located. You may
wish to use Professional mode if your system is an AVAtrix or includes 1176 matrix expanders. To switch
between Residential and Professional, press the MENU key, or the ZERO key on the 1105 remote control.
If your whole-house video distribution system uses Model 1170s, all Wallplate locations automatically display
the same program content as the Main Output of the Model 1156/66. Residential mode is appropriate for this
type of system.
In Residential mode, the normal screen displays the custom long name of the selected source, the six short
names of the sources, which of these sources is currently selected to the Main Output (highlighted short
name), which sources are currently active (overscored
short name), and whether Autoselect™ is On or Off.

and other 1176 Matrix Router Configurations
Multiple Wallplates may be connected to a Model 1166 with Model 1176 Matrix Routers. A single 1176 has
a capacity of six Wallplates. IR signals sent over Cat 5 through the 1176 are then sent through the 1166 and
retransmitted on the IR ouput jack. IR signals from the 1105 (or other enabled remotes) are interpreted by the
1176 and affect only the output of the Wallplate originating the IR. If the system has multiple sources sharing
the same IR code, a Model 1108 Multi-source IR Router should be used.
