AEQ FORUM - DIGITAL AUDIO MIXER FOR BROADCAST APPLICATIONS

Chrono screen

3.2. LOGIN / LOGOUT Menu

This menu allows AEQ FORUM users / operators to register in the system, so that the

equipment recognizes their user level by the associated password, and assigns them an access

level for subsequent operation in the various console sub-menus.

AEQ FORUM enables up to four different user levels, each with its associated profiles and

passwords:

• LEVEL 0: users with no associated password. The operation is limited to raising and

lowering faders and opening and closing channels.

• LEVEL 1: These users may perform the same actions as the Level 0 users, and can

also activate equalizers and filters and modify audio channel input and output gains.

• LEVEL 2: Operators having this profile can carry out the same actions as Level 1

operators, plus operate, configure and control the rest of the parameters associated

with dynamics effects, phase, change the internal routing... in short, all of the

possibilities offered by the AEQ FORUM control surface and its associated internal

menu, except for changing the IP addresses of the two LAN and ETHERNET network

ports present in the rear panel of the equipment (action specifically reserved for Level 3

users).

• LEVEL 3: This is the highest level in the system, reserved for administrators. It enables

full access to all the equipment menus and configuration options, and, in addition, is the

only level enabling access to the Configuration Software. The same password is used in

this menu integrated into the control surface and in remote Configuration Software. For

more information, see section 4. CONFIGURATION SOFTWARE in this manual.

The LOGIN / LOGOUT contextual key has two possible uses: LOGIN to register yourself and

LOGOUT to de-register. When you register through the option in the LOGIN screen, six spaces

are displayed on screen associated with the six digits of the password. The password must be

configured in advance from the Configuration Software (see section 4. CONFIGURATION

SOFTWARE of this manual). If you lose your password, contact AEQ’s Central Technical

Assistance Service at sat@aeq.es or call +34 91 686 13 00.

The procedure for entering the password requires the use of the four contextual keys beneath

the display and the three associated encoders.
