Operating Manual - FR-8 and FR-16 Remote Level Controller

Global Features

Device Name: Up to 20 characters can be used for the device name. The name appears in the network tree in the Proteane Software startup screen, as well as the main FR device screen.

Target Security: When target security is left unspecified or in its default state (user name

=“default” with no password), the FR remote will have full access to all available control parameters on the targeted DSP device. However, if an administrator wishes to limit control parameter access from a FR controller to a selected target device, they must enter the same user name and password on both the FR-8/16 target security fields and on the specified target’s device users section, under the general security tab. Think of it as creating a login requirement for each device before they can be assigned to work together, up to the level of parameter access granted by the target device. Note that even though “Default” and “Admin” are reserved system user names, any changes to these reserved FR name or password fields requires a corresponding entry on the target device. Also note that target security is completely independent from the general FR security section described on page 9, and that user names and passwords implemented there have no impact to or from those used for target security.

LED Brightness: The overall brightness of FR-8 and FR-16 LEDs can be adjusted to one of four levels to match ambient room lighting. The factory default is for the brightest setting.

Clear All: This button clears the control parameters of all faders in the configuration window and returns them to factory default settings. It also clears the FR device target security user name and password. Note: individual fader parameters can be cleared by clicking on any control for that fader and then clicking the pop-up “Clear Fader” button associated with that fader.
