Lock (Password Protection)
This function allows you to password protect console elements.
For example, to avoid accidental operator error during a live
show, or when leaving the console unattended for tea break!
You can lock the following elements:
• The active File and all its Pages – prevents the active
File from being overwritten or deleted, and any Pages
being updated.
• Output processing – prevents modification of all output
processing.

from being overwritten or deleted, and any Pages being
updated.
3. Once you have made your selections, press OK.
