Launching the P1-M in Every Day Use
Every time you launch the P1-M, you should launch the controller first, the
iMAP second and the DAW/s last.
This will allow the iMAP to communicate to the hardware directly. The iMAP
communicates directly to the hardware only and does not communicate to other
software - this ensures that the speed of communication is fast and unhampered by
secondary factors.
Additionally, the iMAP acts as a kind of 'bridge' between the P1-M main unit and any
P1-X extenders you may be using and ensures cohesion. The 'Lock' function, when
used in conjunction with a P1-X extender unit for example, will work as expected. If
the iMAP is not connected, it won't.
Of course, if you are expecting to make any changes with the programming of
functions, the iMAP will need to run concurrently with the P1-M hardware.
Lastly, the reason for using the sequence of Controller, iMAP, DAW is because
MIDI port 4 is used by the iCON Pro Audio software, iMAP
TM
to change the three
DAWs you use, to update firmware and to program the 16 panel touchscreen
with the functions of your choice. You cannot use this port to connect your device.
Unfortunately, some DAWs will automatically try to occupy Port 4 when launched
and this will prevent the iMAP from functioning properly. The iMAP, therefore, needs
to be turned on before the DAW/s and after the controller to make sure it occupies
that MIDI port and is connected properly.
