Locking Out PQ Controllers
Lockout From Console
The PQ Controller can be locked out by clicking the on-screen
Lockout From Console button in any of the PQ mixers. When
this Lockout button is engaged, the PQ controller cannot ad-
just PQ mixer controls. The performer using the PQ Controller
cannot override this lockout from the controller.
Lockout From Controller
Users can lock their PQ Controllers by pressing the Lockout
switch on the controller to prevent inadvertent changes to
controller settings. When this is done, the on-screen Lockout
From Controller indicator lights in the corresponding PQ
mixer. This function does not lock out control of the PQ mixer
from the console.
Troubleshooting
PQ Rack Communication
If the PQ Link Fault indicator lights on a connected PQ Rack,
or if the PQ Rack does not appear in the Devices tab of the Op-
tions page, try the following:

Make sure the length of the PQ Link cable does not exceed
15 ft (4.6 m).

Check power connections to the PQ Rack.

Power cycle the PQ Rack.

Disconnect and reconnect the PQ Link cable from the Stage
Rack or from the PQ Rack.

Substitute a different PQ Link cable.
PQ Controller Communication
If a PQ Controller Fault indicator lights on a connected PQ
Rack, or if the PQ Controller does not appear in the Devices
tab of the Options page, try the following:

Make sure the length of the PQ Controller cable does not ex-
ceed 100 ft (30.5 m).

Check power connections to the corresponding PQ Rack.

Power cycle the corresponding PQ Rack.

Disconnect and reconnect the PQ Controller cable from the
PQ Rack or from the PQ Controller.

Connect the PQ Controller to a different port on the PQ
Rack.

Substitute a different PQ Controller cable.

To test a PQ Controller unit independently, plug the PQ
Controller directly into the Personal Q Rack port on the Stage
Rack, using the short PQ Link cable. (A PQ Controller cable
longer than 15 ft (4.6 m) will not work.)
If the PQ Controller is working properly, it should appear in
the Devices tab of the Options page as “PQ 1-1” and properly
operate the controls on PQ mixer #1.
