DSP Configurator Tools menu
Presets Allows you to mark all items, save a preset,
and clear marked items:
• Mark All Items Mark (select) all parts of
the current configuration (excluding presets),
including processors, created ties, and mic
mixes to save as a partial preset.
• Save Preset Save the currently marked
processors, ties, and mic mixes as a partial
preset.
• Clear Marked Items Unmark (deselect)
all parts of the current configuration (excluding presets), including
processors, created ties, and mic mixes.
Protected Configuration Allows a user (typically the installer) to save and recall
a protected configuration. The protected configuration is useful to establish the
MPX Plus 866 A’s configuration and all presets, mic mixes, parameters, variables,
and values (with the exception of the switcher’s IP address) in a known state,
either as a troubleshooting tool or as a baseline configuration. The protected
configuration, once saved in the switcher, is always present and cannot be
overwritten without entering a user-selected Personal Identification Number
(PIN) password. The configuration is restored without a PIN:
N
The default PIN is 0000.
• Save Save the current configuration (excluding presets), including
processors, created ties, and mic mixes as a password protected
configuration. The DSP Configurator program prompts for a PIN to save.
• Recall Recall the protected configuration.
• Change PIN Change the PIN associated with the protected configuration.
