Dolby has now discontinued the Dolby decoder module, however if you have the module for
the original Blackmagic Audio Monitor and would like to install it, please follow the instructions
on this page.
NOTE Blackmagic Audio Monitor 12G does not support the optional
Dolby decoder module.
WARNING
Ensure that power is disconnected from your Blackmagic Audio Monitor before
installing the Dolby decoder module, as installation requires the removal of the chassis
lid to access the motherboard. This process should only be performed by qualified
individuals. Precautions should also be taken to reduce the risk of electrostatic
discharge while installing the module.

Installing the Module

By installing a Blackmagic Dolby decoder module you can monitor Dolby Digital or Dolby E
audio used in modern film and television productions. Dolby 5.1 surround sound is encoded
with front left and right channels, rear surround left and right channels, a center channel, plus
one channel for low bass frequencies.
The Dolby decoder is a 72 pin SIMM module that is easily installed into the empty SIMM slot on
Blackmagic Audio Monitor's motherboard.
To install the Blackmagic Dolby decoder module:
1 Ensure Blackmagic Audio Monitor's power is unplugged.
2 Unscrew all Blackmagic Audio Monitor's 21 lid screws using a Phillips head screwdriver.
Remove the lid.
3 Hold the Blackmagic Dolby decoder module with its contacts facing the empty SIMM
slot. The SIMM's keyway needs to be aligned with the slot key or the SIMM will not seat.
4 Gently insert the module into the SIMM slot until the contacts are firmly seated.
5 Lean the module towards the rear of Blackmagic Audio Monitor until the metal clips
fasten to each side of the module.
6 Replace Blackmagic Audio Monitor's lid and screw in the 21 lid screws.
After installing the Blackmagic Dolby decoder module, place the supplied Dolby sticker
on Blackmagic Audio Monitor's back panel near the warning label so you can easily see
the Dolby module has been installed.
