USB Ports for iLoks
D-Show Profile provides three USB ports on the control sur-
face and three on the FOH Rack, any of which can be used to
connect an iLok. Multiple iLoks can connected at one time.
To access the internal USB port and attach an iLok:
1
Remove the front panel of the FOH Rack.
2
Identify the USB port location at the lower left.
3
Insert the iLok and use a cable tie to secure the iLok to the
interior support post.
4
Re-attach the front panel.
Enabling and Disabling Installed Plug-Ins
The Installed Plug-Ins list shows Disabled plug-ins in italics .
Plug-Ins can be manually disabled and enabled to manage
DSP resources, troubleshoot possible conflicts, and to manage
plug-in availability.
To globally disable or enable a plug-in:
1
Click to select the plug-in name in the Installed Plug-Ins list,
at the right of the Options > Plug-Ins screen.
2
Right-click the plug-in and select whether to disable or en-
able the selected plug-in.
If assigned to any rack slots, the plug-in will be displayed as
unavailable and inactive.
Overview of Plug-Ins
The Plug-Ins screen displays the plug-in Racks, where the ma-
jority of plug-in set up features are located.
To access the Plug-Ins page:
■
Press the Plug-Ins switch in the View Mode section (or click
the Plug-Ins tab). By default, the Plug-Ins page displays all four
racks, which are empty until plug-ins have been assigned. (See
also ““Jump To” Plug-Ins” on page 157.)
You populate the racks by assigning plug-ins in rack slots.
The following diagram shows an example of the racks with
plug-ins assigned.
During a performance, plug-ins assigned in the racks can be
inserted and routed on-screen and their parameters adjusted
from the control surface or on-screen.
The FOH Rack provides a total of three USB 2.0 ports (one
on the front panel, one on the back panel, and another in-
side the rack). Because the USB ports on the FOH Rack are
the faster USB 2.0 version, it is recommended that you use
the external USB port for large transfers to and from USB
storage devices; use the internal USB port to attach and se-
cure an iLok USB Smart key.
