Selecting the fan speed
In the Fan Speed section of the Configuration tab you
can select the speed of the internal cooling fan of the PRO2
Control Centre according to the operating conditions. If
you are operating the PRO2 in a warm or hot environment
we recommend that you select the Fast option. If the
noise of the fan operation is causing a problem, select the
Slow option.
Remote control server
In the Remote Control Server section of the
Configuration tab, you can enable remote control of the
console by the Midas software for Apple iPad. To do this
carry out the following:
1 Connect your console to a secure wireless network.
2 Do one of the following:
• Enter an appropriate IP address for your network using the up/down spin
buttons of the IP Addr. section*
•Tick the DHCP box so that your router automatically assigns an IP address to
your network**
3 Click Start. The server will take several seconds to start up. Once up and
running, the status will confirm the IP address.
You can stop the server at any time by clicking Stop. This will disable external control
of the console.
Important:
We recommend that you do not connect the console to an unsecured or public
network, as other users could potentially take control of the console.
* Avoid using addresses in the range 192.168.20.x, as they are reserved for console
internal communication. Netmask is predefined as 255.255.255.0.
** In DHCP mode, if the address you are assigned is in the range 169.254.x.x this
indicates the console could not find a DHCP server (and the server will not function).
Check connections and consult the manufacturer's instructions for your router.
Configuring the channels, groups and internal units
You can change the default name and colour of the input and output channels, groups,
internal rack units and GEQs of the PRO2 that appear on the control surface (LCD select
buttons) and GUI. This is done via the ‘Sheet’ screen of each item, which is accessible
via the GUI menu.
The procedure for configuring the VCA/POPulation groups is shown in “Configuring VCA/
POPulation groups” on page 75, and this is principally the same for each of the above
items.
