>> To load (import) a show file from a USB memory stick
The procedure is similar to the export procedure, as detailed in “To save (export) a
show file to a USB memory stick” above, but select the file to be imported to the PRO2
from the Removable Storage panel and then click IMPORT.
External AES50 synchronisation
If you want to connect AES50 audio between two Midas digital consoles the slave
console must be set to external AES50 synchronisation, irrespective of the
synchronisation source of the master console.
A valid connection can be a tie line between the stage routers or the secondary port
(Bx/By) of a mic splitter that has its primary port (Ax/Ay) connected to the master
console.
Make sure that the DL431 Mic Splitter is set to synchronise from the master console.
Security (locking mode)
To preserve the current state of the PRO2 Control Centre and to prevent unauthorised
adjustment of its settings, you can lock it; this is a GUI-only function. When locked,
none of the controls on the control surface will function and the PRO2 Control Centre
will be totally locked out.
At a GUI screen, choose home
Lock.
>> To unlock the PRO2 control centre
At a GUI screen, click the UNLOCK button (lower-left corner of screen). The PRO2
Control Centre will revert to the state it was in when it was previously locked.
