 This includes selected (or all) devices, their Device
|
||
|
|
Presets and Parameter Presets for selected Parameter Preset
|
||
|
|
Groups. Venue Presets are useful for system wide changes
|
||
|
|
in set up across multiple boxes.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>To create a Venue Preset press the red '<span class="hcp1">V'</span>
|
||
|
|
button in the Preset toolbar. This opens the Venue Preset
|
||
|
|
window where these presets can be created, configured,
|
||
|
|
renamed, recalled and deleted.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Start a Venue Preset by pressing the '<span class="hcp1">New'</span>
|
||
|
|
button. You are then prompted to type a name, use something
|
||
|
|
that describes the purpose of the preset, e.g. for a stadium,
|
||
|
|
'Pitch set up' and 'Track set up'. Continue with the 'Next'
|
||
|
|
button where you can now select which devices you want
|
||
|
|
to change settings in.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The following screen allows you to select Device Presets
|
||
|
|
to recall when the Venue Preset is selected; click in
|
||
|
|
the Device Presets boxes to engage drop down lists of
|
||
|
|
any pre-stored Device Presets. If the current set up of
|
||
|
|
the devices is what you want to go with then use the 'Snapshot'
|
||
|
|
facility to create Device Presets automatically.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Next a list of pre-configured Parameter Preset Groups
|
||
|
|
can be selected for use with Parameter Presets (in the
|
||
|
|
next screen along if ticked here) to further change settings.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Note that if the required settings have been achieved
|
||
|
|
through a Device Preset selection earlier then there may
|
||
|
|
be no need to use these groups of settings. Conversely,
|
||
|
|
if the Device Presets are not configured, i.e. left blank,
|
||
|
|
then the Venue Preset can be used to exclusively change
|
||
|
|
certain parameters based on predetermined control groups
|
||
|
|
using Parameter Presets.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Device Presets are perhaps better for easy box based
|
||
|
|
overall changes that might include Configuration changes
|
||
|
|
or other hardware settings that cannot be accessed through
|
||
|
|
Parameter Presets. Parameter Presets are better for more
|
||
|
|
focused actions within certain devices.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The final screen shows a summary of the setting that
|
||
|
|
has been created for the Venue Preset; check this carefully
|
||
|
|
to make sure that the preset will have the desired result.
|
||
|
|
You can go back through all the settings to change assignments
|
||
|
|
as necessary. The 'Finish' button in this screen closes
|
||
|
|
the window and returns back to the Venue Presets window.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The settings for a Venue Preset can be edited at any
|
||
|
|
time by clicking on the Venue Preset name in the list
|
||
|
|
and pressing the '<span class="hcp1">Configure'</span>
|
||
|
|
button, this runs through the process described above
|
||
|
|
again.</p>

<h1>Venue Preset recall and the HiQnet Node object</h1>
|
||
|
|
<p>Venue Preset recall is part of the HiQnet protocol and
|
||
|
|
its functionality is available on all HiQnet devices.
|
||
|
|
In a Soundweb London system, Venue Presets can be triggered
|
||
|
|
from a PC running HiQnet London Architect software and/or
|
||
|
|
from a BLU network device. This section will deal with
|
||
|
|
Venue Preset recall from a BLU network device.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>By default, a BLU network device sends the Venue Recall
|
||
|
|
command (across the Ethernet Control network) to all the
|
||
|
|
BLU network devices and Crown PIP modules in the design
|
||
|
|
file. This functionality can be extended to other HiQnet
|
||
|
|
network devices by adding the HiQnet Node object to your
|
||
|
|
design, solely for the purpose of recalling Venue Presets
|
||
|
|
from a BLU network device.</p>
|
||
|
|
<h2>Preparing Venue Presets</h2>
|
||
|
|
<ul type="disc">
|
||
|
|
<li class="p"><p>The Venue Presets must exist inside
|
||
|
|
your non-Soundweb HiQnet device. They must be created
|
||
|
|
and loaded into the device using System Architect</p></li>
|
||
|
|
<li class="p"><p>Equivalent Venue Presets must be created
|
||
|
|
in London Architect. Each Venue Preset will be assigned
|
||
|
|
an ID number incrementally, starting from ID 1. If
|
||
|
|
a Venue Preset is deleted, its ID will be released
|
||
|
|
and used for the next Venue Preset created.</p></li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<h2>Adding and setting up a HiQnet Node device</h2>
|
||
|
|
<ul type="disc">
|
||
|
|
<li class="p"><p>Drag the HiQnet Node object from the
|
||
|
|
Hardware View onto the Main window. Alternatively
|
||
|
|
the object can be added by right-clicking and selecting
|
||
|
|
it from the drop-down context menu.</p></li>
|
||
|
|
<li class="p"><p>In the Properties, enter the HiQnet
|
||
|
|
Node address of the device.</p></li>
|
||
|
|
<li class="p"><p>Go online and load the design into
|
||
|
|
the BLU devices.</p></li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<p>The HiQnet Node address of the non-Soundweb device will
|
||
|
|
now respond to a Venue Preset recall from the BLU network
|
||
|
|
device. The Venue Preset can be triggered by using a logic
|
||
|
|
circuit, network wall controller, Control Input ports
|
||
|
|
or 3rd party Serial controller. (eg: AMX, Crestron)</p>

|
|
 
|
||
|
|
<p> When going online, a BLU network device (except
|
||
|
|
the BLU-8) will hold a list of HiQnet node addresses of
|
||
|
|
the network devices in the design. The Venue Recall messages
|
||
|
|
will continue to be sent to those devices until they are
|
||
|
|
removed from the list. To stop the BLU network device
|
||
|
|
sending Venue Preset recall messages to the HiQnet devices
|
||
|
|
represented by the HiQnet Node objects, follow the procedure
|
||
|
|
below.</p>
