Wireless Control
The Allen & Heath Qu-Pad, Qu-Control and Qu-You apps are available free from the Apple Store for iOS
devices including iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch. Qu-You is also available for Android devices.
Set up the Qu wireless network
- For best performance use a dual band (2.4 and 5GHz) wireless
router (wireless access point) with auto channel selection. Position it high up to avoid obstacles such as
people and equipment. Avoid locating it behind pillars or walls, near metal beams or on top of
loudspeakers. Go to the mixer
Setup / Network
screen and check that DHCP is enabled.
The Qu mixer firmware and app versions must be compatible. For example, V1.9
app will not run with V1.8 firmware. To avoid unexpected version mismatch we
recommend you turn off ‘auto update’ on your device. Download the latest Qu mixer
firmware from the Allen & Heath web site.
To prevent unauthorised control of your Qu mixer we recommend that you set a
router password to protect your wireless network.
The wireless device remembers the network settings. To prevent a guest
engineer using their own device on your network without password in future, select
your network in their device Settings Wi-Fi menu and use the 'Forget this network'
function.
Connect to the wireless network
– Power up the router. Wait a few minutes
for it to establish its broadcast. Go to your wireless device Settings screen, find and
connect to the mixer Wi-Fi network.
Start the app
– The app opens in its Login page. You should see your Qu mixer
in the list if it is recognised on the Wi-Fi network. Select this and touch Connect. A
login password is required if one has been set at the mixer. Read the app Help
Manual by touching the
?
button on its Login or Setup page.
Qu-Pad
is an engineer's mixing tool giving you the freedom
to walk the room or stage and control the sound where it is
needed. Qu-Pad follows the User Profiles and Permissions as
set in the Qu mixer.
Qu-You
provides personal monitor mix control for
musicians on stage. The engineer can still keep an eye on
and control each mix at the Qu mixer at any time. A
password for Qu-You users can be set at the mixer.
Qu-Control
is a customisable app with up to five screen
tabs and up to 15 control ‘widgets’ per tab. These can be
anything from background music source selection to a
master zone level or microphone paging. A password for Qu-
Control users can be set at the mixer.
