OnAir 1500 Digital Mixing Console
5-6 Operation
Document generated: 06.08.14 SW V6.0
Window Size When the configuration tool is displayed on the external screen, the page
windows may be minimized, maximized, or resized, as commonly known
from standard Windows operation: By double-clicking on the window’s title
bar, or by clicking on the (minimize), (maximize), or (restore down)
buttons in the window’s upper right corner. Window size may also be con-
tinuously varied by dragging its edge or frame to the desired size.
External USB Keyboard
For the keyboard layout, the language settings made with the configuration
tool under User GUI... – Settings – Keyboard Layout are valid (for the
time being, English US , Danish and French (Belgian) are provided for
selection). This is independent of how the keyboard’s keys are labeled. Fac-
tory default setting: English US .
When using the external keyboard, some extended functionality is available,
such as expanding/collapsing items in the configuration menu tree with the
arrow keys, or the copy/paste function using the Windows standard keyboard
shortcuts Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V ; this is convenient when entering multiple, similar
labels or user names.
Please note that the

/Shift and Caps Lock functions of the on-screen key-
board and the one connected via USB are independent; this is particularly
important when entering passwords since these are case-sensitive.
Details For further details on console operation with external screen, mouse and
keyboard please refer to chapter 5.12 .
5.2 User Login
It is presumed that during normal operation neither screen nor keyboard/
mouse are connected to the OnAir 1500 system. Without them, user login
from the user GUI is not possible. The default user is automatically selected
when powering the console on.
Since SW V4.1 there is a second, convenient option available for users to
login using a USB memory stick.
Important
!
Not all USB sticks are recognized by the system if plugged in before or during
start-up. The USB stick shipped with the console permits start-up recognition;
it is recommended therefor that this stick is used for login.
In case two different login USB sticks are connected to the system, the last
one ‘wins’.
A USB stick intended for user login must contain a file named
Login.ID
.
For creating this file the Remote Config Tool is required, refer to chapter
5.17.5.6 .
Each time the USB stick containing the login information is plugged into
or removed from the
DATA / LOGIN
USB socket, the user is automatically
logged in/out. The user name and his last loaded snapshot are displayed for
a few seconds in the FUNCTION OLED display after logging in. If a default
snapshot was saved for this user, it is automatically loaded to the desk as well.
