5.2.2 Eagle Startup and Configuration
To use Eagle with the Status console, you must first connect the console via the serial
cable to a COM port on the PC equipped with a 16550AF high-performance UART.
Eagle will not be able to communicate with the console if you do not have a 16550AF
UART on the connected COM port. 8250 and 16450 UARTs are not acceptable
replacements for the 16550AF. When you have confirmed the presence and location of
the 16550AF equipped COM port(s), proceed with the startup instructions below:
1.
Select the COM port on your PC that you will use for console communication
and plug one end of the serial cable to it, using the proper cable adapters if
required.
Plug the other end of the serial cable into the connector labeled
AUTOMATION PC
situated on the back of the Auxiliary Panel.
2.
Power down the Status console and remove the existing console Master
Disk. Insert the new Status console Master Disk for Eagle Automation and
repower the console. Allow the console to bootup completely, with the Recall
menu visible, before continuing.
3.
On the PC, click on the
Start
button on the taskbar and select the
Programs
icon from the
Start
Menu. Click on the
Eagle
icon that appears in the
Programs
menu.
This will launch the Eagle application.
(Alternately, you may open the folder “
C:\Program Files\Otari\Eagle
” and
double-click on the file “
Eagle.exe
” to start Eagle Automation.)
4.
When Eagle has finished starting up, you may see a message box saying that
the mix and console time code settings differ. Click on
OK
change the setting
on the console to match Eagle for now.
You will reset the time code to the proper setting later on.
5.
Click on the
Edit
menu and select the
Automation Preferences
item from
the bottom of the list.
The
Display Options
tab will be displayed when the Automation Preferences
window opens.
6.
Change the
Number of Modules to Display
item to match the number of
modules installed in your console.
7.
Click on the
Mix Options
tab to see the next page. Set the
Auto Archive
value to the number you prefer.
Auto Archive will automatically save your mix file to hard disk after the specified
number of mix passes have been completed.
A setting of “1” will save every pass to disk, whereas a setting of “0” will prevent
Auto Archive from saving mixes automatically.
You may still save mixes manually at any time.
