"License" section (that appears only for CPU version 1.32 or higher) allows you to activate the 
following functionalities: 

 
 

•

 

"Visual  Radio",  that  allows  you  to  send 
vumeters  of  any  of  the  inputs  of  the  unit  to 
different IP addresses. See section 3.2.2.5 of this 
manual. This option and the associated submenu 
appear only for NETBOX 8 and NETBOX 32 with 
CPU versions 1.xx. 

 

•

 

"Netbox  RTC",  that  allows  you  to  turn  the 
NETBOX 8 or NETBOX 32 unit into a mixing and 
distributing  audio  matrix  and  to  control  these 
units  and  the  NETBOX  DSP  by  means  of  "AEQ 
Netbox  RTC"  application  (see  the  user's manual 
of  that  application).  This  option  appears  only  for 
NETBOX  8  and  NETBOX  32  with  CPU  version  2.25  or  higher  and  for  NETBOX  DSP  with 
any CPU version. The IP address of the Netbox server is also shown. 

 
In order to activate any of this 2 options, you must purchase a user license.  

 

When you press the padlock associated to any of the 2 options, a window will appear allowing 
you to introduce the key that activates the corresponding functionality. 
 

 

     

 

 

In case your order includes any of those functionalities, the unit is supplied from Factory 
activated.  If  you  want  to  activate  it  a  posteriori,  you  must  copy  the  "Serial  Number"  by 
means of the associated button and send it to AEQ in order to generate the associated 
"Key" and send it back to you (you must paste it by means of the associated button). 

 

 
The  "Unlock"  button  allows  you  to  confirm  the  key  and,  when  it’s  correct,  activate  the 
functionality.  

 

 

 
 
 
 
 

 

 
In  case  the  key  is  not  the  right  one,  a  warning 
message will appear:
