Enabling the AWS Logictivity features on your console
NOTE: The following only applies to AWS consoles that currently do not have AWS SE software.
1) Find the console’s serial number. The serial number label is located on the rear of the console adjacent to the
mains inlet connector. The serial number starts with the letters AWS followed by a numerical number. Make a note
of the numerical number for the registration process (e.g. if the serial number is AWS293, note 293).
2) If you have not registered your console on-line (or you have forgotten your username), complete the on-line
registration:

3) Navigate to the on-line registration page and enter your activation code and the numerical element of your
console’s serial number previously noted. The activation code can only be used once. Please ensure that you enter
the correct serial number:

4) After a successful activation, you will be invited to download and install the latest version of software. Follow the
link to the download page.
Using Physical MIDI Ports to Connect your DAW
Optionally the AWS 900 can use a standard MIDI connection between the AWS 900+ SE console and your DAW
using a multi port MIDI interface. In this mode only one DAW layer can be configured. To select this mode navigate
to the
SSL/Misc/Setup
menu and set
MIDI communicates via: MIDI Ports.
The console communicates with the DAW via the MIDI ports located on the rear of the console:
MIDI ports should be connected to your DAW MIDI interface unit – three available ports are required (one port
includes an IN and OUT socket). To connect a port, the output of the MIDI interface unit port 1 should connect to
the MIDI 1 input port of the AWS 900+ SE and the MIDI output of the AWS 900+ SE port 1 should connect to the
input of your MIDI interface unit port 1. Repeat for the other ports using the diagram above as a guide. Port 4 is
used both for archiving Total Recall and Automation data and to receive MIDI Timecode (MTC).
Follow the instructions on configuring your workstation but use the physical MIDI ports rather than the virtual MIDI
ports when selecting MIDI ports.
Note that ports 5 and 6 are currently not implemented and are reserved for future expansion.
Please note that the recommended maximum length of MIDI cables is 15 meters.
