The audio module (AUD) is an amplifier which is connected to the MOST network. It has the following functions:
- to carry the sound signal transmitted on the MOST network out to the directly connected loudspeakers
- to carry voice messages from the microphone, which is directly connected to the audio module (AUD), to the MOST network.
If a subwoofer module (SUB) is installed on the MOST network, the audio module (AUD) can process the incoming signal and transmit it to the subwoofer module (SUB).
There are three versions of the audio module (AUD):
- Performance (included after structure week 2004w46 in the Integrated Audio Module (IAM)). Has an output of 25W per audio channel. The control module has 4 audio channels, these produce a combined output of 100W.
- High Performance . Has an output of 40 W per channel. The control module has 4 channels, giving a total output of 160W
- Premium Sound (not C70) . Has an output of 70W per channel plus an output of 25 W for the channel for the centrally-mounted speaker. The control module has four channels plus the channel for the centrally-mounted speaker. This gives a total output of 305W.
Each version of the audio module (AUD) has a different number of loudspeakers and different loudspeaker models.
All versions of the audio module (AUD) have a microphone input. This is used by the phone module (PHM) for phone calls (handsfree) for example.
