Password Protection
A Pro64 network can be password protected from the Control Master only.
Once protected, the front‑panel interface on all modules is locked, preventing
changes to A‑Net Slots, sample rate, clock source, channel activation, stereo
links, and Virtual Data Cable assignments. Hardware switches, such as gain
settings on input and output modules, and rear‑panel DIP switches are in the
analog domain and are not affected. Password protection remains in force
even when a system is power cycled.
All Pro64 hardware I/O devices except console interface cards ship with a
default password. The 6416Y2 card can be used to lock the network, but no
password is available.
To lock the Pro64 network, move switch 9 in the front‑panel DIP switch block
to the
down
position. Changes to the network lock status will be instantly
reflected on other network modules. No edits are possible until the network
is unlocked. When the 6416Y2 card is Control Master, simply move switch 9
in the front‑panel DIP switch block to the
up
position to unlock the network
and allow changes to be made.
