Users Login page 

Open this page to log in as a different User. 
 

 

 
The system Administrator can set up to 9 User Profiles to 
protect settings and reduce operator error by restricting 
access to certain functions for different users. 
 
The list shows available Users. These can be configured in 
the 

Setup / Config / User Profiles

 

screen. The Admin User 

is always displayed. Only other Users that have been made 
‘Active’ by Admin will display in the Users page. The list 
displays if the User has a password or User Scene set. 
 

Password

 – If one is set it needs to be entered using the 

screen keypad when: 

 

The User logs in using this screen 

 

The GLD is powered up 

 

The User locks or unlocks the surface 

 

User Scene

 – The folder icon in the list shows if a User 

Scene is set. The window on the right displays which Scene 
is set for the User highlighted in the list. 

Note

  The User Scene, if one is set, is recalled 

automatically on login when the User is changed. It does 
not recall when the same User logs in, or when the system 
is powered down and up again while the same user is 
current. 
 

Permissions

 – Access to selected functions and 

parameters can be restricted for each User. These are 
configured by Admin.

Quick Start page

Touch Help Menu to open the list of additional Help topics. 
 

 

 

 

Quick Start Mixing Guide
