System Configuration ~ G-Ware Screens

G-Ware Screens

G-Ware has three modes: Configuration, Preset, and Macro Recorder. Configuration is used to configure the unit and is the default mode. The Preset and Macro modes are discussed in Chapter 4: Advanced Configuration. You can switch between modes by clicking on the corresponding toolbar button. The current mode is displayed on the status bar.

There are two main configuration screens, the Flow Screen and the Matrix Screen. All unit configuration and audio routing is accessed through these screens.

The G-Ware Flow Screen is the main access window for G-Ware’s features and functions. Using the menus and toolbar at the top of the screen, you can access general configuration windows. Unit specific configurations are accessed through the buttons and labels on the Flow Screen itself. If you have multiple units, click on the unit icon in the Site pane to access that particular unit’s Flow Screen.

The Flow Screen shows a detailed block diagram of the path of the audio signal, presenting a graphical explanation of each stage of audio processing. Mic and line inputs, outputs, telco receive and transmit, expansion buses, and processing block configuration windows can all be accessed from this screen. The XAP 400 Flow Screen has eight icons and buttons at the bottom of the Flow Screen which open the following unit programs: Dial, Telco Config, Remote Builder, Gating Control, Preset Mode, Macro Editor, Telco Meters, and GPIO Builder.
