Home

When no screen mode is selected, the System screen displays a Home page with a System Status dashboard, real time clock and access to User login.

🛈 Press the Surface Home key to come back to this page and present a familiar state of the Surface controls. Pressing this key will exit from any screen mode or menu, unselect the currently selected channel, make the Main LR the active Mix, and Layer A active across all fader banks.

  1. System Status – Displays a list of system components. A green tick indicates the component is running correctly. A red cross indicates that an error is detected. A blue icon appears when a non-critical event is logged. Touch the component to display further information.

  2. System Info – Displays firmware version, current User, and the last Scene and Show recalled.

    When a system component is selected in the left column, further information on that component is displayed here, for example status of PSU, cable redundancy, Audio Sync Lock and the type of I/O modules fitted in a DX32 Expander.

    If an error is detected, touch Dismiss to clear the error from this screen, or open the Utility / Utility / History page to investigate the logs. Contact Support for assistance.

  3. Press Switch User to access the User login page.

    Press Lock Surface and confirm to lock all Surface controls and touchscreen. Parameters will not be changed if the Surface controls are moved while locked, for example when left unattended. Touch the screen again to unlock the Surface.

    🛈 If a password is set for the current User, then this must be entered when the User locks or unlocks the Surface.

    Press Power Down and confirm to safely power down the system before you switch power off. Failures to power down correctly may result in recent parameter changes being lost or under rare circumstances, possible data corruption.

  4. Clock – Shows the time in hours, minutes, seconds. Set using the Utility / Utility / Date/Time screen.

User login

The system Administrator can set up to 9 User Profiles to protect settings and restrict access to certain functions. Touch Switch User on the Home page to log in as a different User.

  1. Users list - Shows available Users. These can be configured and enabled in the MixRack / Config / User Profiles screen. The Admin User is always displayed. Icons indicate if the User has a password or User Scene set. Touch a User to select then touch Login to change User.

    If a password is set, it needs to be entered using the screen keypad when the User logs in using this screen, when the system is powered up, or when the User locks or unlocks the Surface.

  2. User Scene – If one is set, it is recalled automatically on login when the User is changed. It is not recalled when the Surface is unlocked, or when the system is powered down and up again while the same User is current.
