SF-16M Matrix Amplier Installation and Operation Guide 5
INTRODUCTION
The SonaFlex SF-16M is a unique blend of multi-channel amplication, exible input options, audio matrix switching,
signal processing and open control capability. Built and designed in the U.S. with sound and video integrators in mind, the
SF-16M offers a new approach to common commercial and residential distributed audio applications - one multi-purpose
matrix amplier that can be used in a variety of installations.
Key Features
• Audio matrix switching, signal processing and amplication in one unied system
• 16 analog RCA inputs combined with 2 Cat 5 “FlexPort” inputs allow for a total 20 mono/10 stereo inputs
• Optional Cat 5 FlexPort audio modules accept balanced line/mic, XLR, digital SPDIF and analog RCA audio sources
• 16 amplied outputs can be congured as mono, stereo or a combination of stereo and mono
• Up to four SF-16M units can be linked together to form a powerful 32 input x 64 output audio matrix (see p. 13)
• Class-D amplication provides a conservatively rated 45 watts per channel (all channels driven) or 60 watts (8
channels driven) at 8 Ohms - stable to 4 Ohms
• Linear power supply delivers the warmth and musicality of an analog amplier, combined with the responsiveness and
headroom required for dynamic music content
• Signal processing tools include hi and low shelf lters (Bass/Treble), hi and low pass lters and up to seven bands of
parametric equalization per output
• 10 preset sound scenes, a system-wide snap-shot of all volume and source settings, can be saved and recalled using
IR, RS-232 or IP commands
• 10 audio groups allow multiple outputs to be grouped together to share volume ramping, muting, source selection and
more
• Compatible with virtually any control system available today using RS-232, Ethernet or IR commands
• Commonly used settings are accessible via the front panel controls and VFD display; advanced setup is performed via
the PC conguration utility (free download) or Ethernet/serial commands
• Power saving features include automute and turn off per output channel, and a system trigger input so that power
management devices can put the SF-16M in standby when not in use
FlexPort Cat 5 Audio Inputs
• Four compatible FlexPort audio modules: FPM-U Stereo RCA, FPM-D Digital Coax/Optical Audio, FPM-X Mic/ 1/4” TRS
Audio and FPM-B Balanced Audio (See Appendix A for detailed information)
• Provides a mixture of consumer and pro audio sources such as MP3 players, audio streaming devices, microphones,
audio mixers, paging microphones and more
• FlexPort modules can be located up to 500 feet away from the SF-16M giving exibility in audio source placement
Control Interfaces
• Ethernet
• RS-232 Serial
• 2 contact closure inputs to trigger audio overrides and scenes
• Rear panel IR input (3.5 mm jack)
• Front panel IR sensor
• Front panel capacitive touch buttons and knob with VFD screen
