Octaire Control Panel Operation

Defining & Executing Global Presets

Global presets are predefined sets of switches that can easily be executed at one time. The Octaire Control Panel supports up to 64 global presets. A global preset number can be assigned to a routing state during runtime and stored by the system, allowing you to replicate an entire system state. (The system state includes audio volume/gain settings and all signal routings.) That system state can be restored at any time by selecting the assigned global preset number. Global presets can be defined or recalled using either the Octaire Control Panel or BCS commands interchangeably.

Defining Global Presets

A global preset is a snapshot of an entire system’s state which enables that system state to be recalled at a later time. Before defining a Global Preset, route the system to the desired state (including audio settings if applicable).

All 64 global preset numbers are displayed in the Global Preset submenu, even if not defined. Be aware that there is no indication to distinguish a Global Preset number that has been assigned to a routing state from an undefined Global Preset.

Caution: We strongly recommend keeping track of the number and the system state routing used for each global preset. If a previously used number is assigned to another system state (using either the Octaire Control Panel or BCS commands), the former state will be automatically overwritten.

The example below defines Global Preset 3, and the example on the next page executes Global Preset 3.

Important: Wait approximately ten seconds for the system to permanently store the global preset setting before performing another operation.

To define a global preset:

1.Route the system to the desired state.

2.Press the Function Key. The Function menu appears.

3.Locate Global Preset by scrolling with the Control Dial.

4.Press the Select Key.

The Global Preset submenu appears.

5.Scroll the Control Dial to Define Global. Press Select Key.

The Define Global list appears.
