SECURITY ______________________________________________
Security is an optional feature that allows the installer, or other security administrator, to restrict the end user's
access to System Processor settings via the computer. The administrator is the individual who sets the device's
password and the access level at which it will operate after it is installed. There are three different user access
levels for the device:
Level One
When the device is set to level one, the user has unrestricted access to System Processor functions,
except for two functions that are always protected by the administrator password:
1. Setting the security level of the device.
2. Changing the administrator password.
Level Two
When the device is set to level two, the user has limited access, as defined by the security
administrator. The following System Processor access can be allowed for level two:
§ Preset changes via PC.
§ Changes to Matrix Mixer signal routing.
§ Access to modify processor settings for any blocks that are not locked by
the administrator (see the Individual Processor Security section on page 87 for
more information).
Level Three
This level permits read-only access to System Processor settings for the current live preset.
Note: Security only affects access through the software interface. It does not restrict
external device control via the control pins or MIDI.
Establishing Device Security
Establishing security should be the final phase in setting up the device. There are two primary steps in setting
the device security, as described below.
Create a Password
Before you can set the user access level in the device, you
must create the password that protects your access as the
security administrator.
To create a password:
1. Go into Live Mode with the device.
2. Select [Security>Set Password] from the main menu.
3. The Create Password dialog appears, as pictured
to the right in figure 58.
4. Enter a password in the [Administrator Password] field.
5. T
AB to the [Confirm Password] field and retype
the password.
6. Fill out the [Administrator Name] and [Phone or Contact info] fields.
Note: All entries in the Create Password dialog are limited to a length of fifteen
characters.
