PASSWORD PROTECTION

There are two levels of password protection, User and Administrator.

User Level

User level provides access to the front panel controls and the fader controls in the DX-810-PC application.The MODE button on the front panel is used to disable the front panel controls by selecting LOCK. The LOCK LED blinks for about five seconds before it engages. When the LED lights steadily, the front panel controls are disabled.

To unlock the DX810 from the front panel, press the bottom “Down” buttons on the front panel in the correct numerical sequence. Use the following chart:

Input 1 Down = 1

Input 2 Down = 2

Input 3 Down = 3

Input 4 Down = 4

Input 5 Down = 5

Input 6 Down = 6

Input 7 Down = 7

Input 8 Down = 8

Low EQ Down = 9

Hi EQ Down = 0

Note: The default User Lock Code is “1234.” The buttons must be pressed in rather rapid sequence in order to unlock the front panel (no more than about 1 second between key presses).

Administrator Level

Administrator Level provides access to all of the DX-810-PC software application functions. When you click the On Line button in the application to begin communication between the application and the DX810, the Enter Pass Code window opens. Entering the four-digit User Pass Code limits you to fader control only. Entering the four-digit Administrator Pass Code (previously defined in the Set Lock Code window under the Advanced menu) allows you full access to the software controls.

Note: The default administrator code is “1234.”
