Quick Start Guide
Once the Axis10 is powered on and connected to the network, it will automatically be dis-
covered on the network using the Dante Controller software
1. Connect the Axis10 to power, either by connecting the RJ-45 port to a PoE enabled port
on a network switch, or by connecting the provided USB-A to USB-C cable between the
power supply and the Axis10’s USB-C power input, and connecting the power supply to
a suitable power outlet.
2. If not utilizing PoE, connect the Dante port to a network using a CAT5e (or better) cable.
3. Connect the Ethernet port to a network using a CAT5e (or better) cable.
4. Connect the eARC source device via HDMI cable to the eARC input of the Axis10.
5. On a computer, open the Dante Controller software. The Axis10 will automatically be
discovered, and audio streams can then be routed to their desired endpoints.
6. Access the Axis10’s web interface for additional configuration (see Network Setup).

Network Setup
Once connected to the network, the Axis10 will automatically obtain an IP address for web
GUI access and Dante if a DHCP server is available. If an IP address is not automatically
obtained, will fall back to an automatic IP (see the Internet Connectivity section for more
details).
The Axis10 will display its current IP address on the front panel LED screen.
To set a static IP address, open the web GUI by entering the current IP address into your
favorite web browser. Navigate to the Network settings tab, turn o DHCP, enter your
desired IP information, and click Apply. The device will restart, and be accessible at the new
address.
A static IP address can also be set for the Dante port on this page.
Digital Audio Input
Though there are two ports, there is only 1 digital input on the Axis10, utilizing either the
optical TOSLINK or coax S/PDIF input. If both inputs are connected to a source, the Axis10
will default to the coax input. The coax would need to be disconnected to allow audio to
play through the Axis10 from the TOSLINK input.
Digital audio inputs have priority over the eARC input. When audio is detected on the
digital input, the Axis10 will automatically switch to that input. After 10 seconds of no audio
streaming to the digital input, the Axis10 will switch back to eARC input.
Dante Output Channels
The Axis10 outputs 10 Dante streams: 8 individual speaker channels, and 2 stereo downmix
channels. The front left and right speaker channels and the stereo downmix channels are
always enabled, and the other speaker channels can be enabled or disabled.
This allows for dierent configurations depending on the speakers being used in the install.

Below is a guide detailing the dierent speaker layouts possibilities on the Axis and how
certain audio formats will output audio with those layouts.
All listening modes are compatible with every speaker layout, but some speakers may be
silent depending on the format. For example, in a 5.1.2 system, Dolby Digital (DD) content
will play perfectly fine, but the two height channels will be silent because standard DD

We at AudioControl understand that warranties can be scary, but fear not! This warranty
is designed to make you rave about us to your friends. It looks out for you, and keeps you
from taking your AudioControl product to a friend who’s “good with electronics” for repairs.
Our warranty covers products purchased from all authorized AudioControl dealers,
installers, and direct purchases. Products are guaranteed to be free from manufacturing
defects. This 5-year warranty period keeps you covered under the following conditional
conditions:
1. You must keep your sales receipt for proof of purchase showing when and from whom
the unit was bought. Always keep a physical or digital copy handy.
2. The product must have originally been purchased from an authorized AudioControl
dealer. You do not have to be the original owner, but you do need a copy of the original
sales receipt or invoice.
3. You cannot let anyone other than (A) the AudioControl factory or (B) someone
authorized in writing by AudioControl to service the product. If anyone other than A or B
messes with the receiver, this voids the warranty.
4. The warranty is void if the serial number is altered or removed, or if the product has
been used improperly.
Improper, unwarranted use of the product includes: physical damage (do not use the
Axis10 as a step stool or a coaster); improper connections (120v into the eARC input can fry
the poor thing); sadistic things. This is the best product we know how to build, but if you use
it help you practice ax throwing, something will break.
Assuming you conform to the rules listed here, we get the option of fixing your original unit,
or replacing it with a new one.
