LOCAL CONFIGURATION ONLY -
Using OCTO without Pathscape
The Pathport® OCTO has features that use unsecured protocols. You may not intend to use Pathscape, but “bad actors”
could potentially access the device and change the configuration. Therefore it is prudent to configure
Local Configuration
Only (Read Only) mode to protect your network if you want to use the OCTO, but are not using Pathscape to add your devices
to a Security Domain .
Enter Local Configuration mode by selecting Local Configuration Only from the Security Mode menu.
This menu is shown upon bootup when no Security Mode has been set, i.e. when first received from the factory, or when the
device has been factory defaulted or had its Security settings reset.

• From the Security Mode menu shown on the LCD, turn the encoder to select Local Configuration Only . In the
submenu, confirm by selecting Local Configuration Only again. You will then have full access to the menus.
• In Local Configuration / Read Only mode, Pathway ssACN (Secure sACN) is not available. To use other standard
(unsecured) protocols, you must manually enable them .
In the Protocol Support menu, select the Allow Unsecured RX and choose Accept the Security Risk to enable
unsecured protocols. NOTE : If you’ve disabled security (See Disabling Security below) the Allow Unsecured RX
option is not available.
• Enable RX on the protocols you want to receive.
• On each port, set
Port Direction to Input or Output and patch a standard universe (i.e., UNIV 1).
WARNING ABOUT UNSECURED PROTOCOLS
You are enabling an open protocol that does not use encryption or authentication. These protocols
could be eavesdropped or spoofed by malicious parties. You are strongly encouraged to use Pathway
ssACN, and secure access to your network, both physically and technologically. To use unsecured
protocols, you must acknowledge that you have read this statement and accept these risks.
If you do open Pathscape, any devices secured this way shown as Read Only .
If you want to configure or patch custom universes to this device or use a PC for further configuration, you must use the front
panel to
Reset Security settings, then use Pathscape to add it to a Security Domain.
