User Guide AmpSrv2

AmpSrv2 is a software to connect the tuning tool to either to a physical target device or a virtual amplifier. It will be integrated in GTT for future versions.

To access these options, first select Message (Socket) from the combo box, and then select File > Options.

No all functions of AmpSrv2 are available for every user. If a functionality is grayed out / not available this is probably due to limited license. AmpSrv2 is shipped with a limited license: Customer.lic

Example

Customer.lic (limited access)	Full licensed

The license file is located in AmpSrv2 directory. To activate a new license file: Copy new license file (Xxx.lic) to AmpSrv2 directory and delete existing *. lic file.

In About dialog (Menu: Info – About) it can be checked, which license file is used by AmpSrv2.

For the purposes of this document, there are only a couple options to set up.

Starting AmpSrv2 via \yourInstallationPath\Harman\HarmanAudioworX\tools\AmpSrv2\AmpSrv2.exe gets the following Window. If not yet selected it is necessary to select ‘Message [Socket]’ from the combo box.

Select File > Options.

There are two pages requiring attention, Socket and ‘Tuning GATI’.

In Socket:

Be sure to change Protocol to GATI.

Port 8080 is very popular so if you get network conflicts choose a different one above 50000. Your choice has to be reflected in the VST client (probably AudioMulch).
