This manual aims to provide everything you are likely to need to know about how to install and configure the C10 HD
console, whether you are a new user with little operational experience, an operator who is familiar with SSL consoles, or
a system administrator who is in charge of the maintenance and configuration of the console.
This manual is divided into seven sections which progressively cover the details required to prepare the proposed location,
be able to install and commission the console and finally configure the software to achieve a basic level of operation – ie.

Section 2 7+5'7'9/43 – Covers the requirements for the intended location of the room/studio and then
lists the peripheral equipment that will be needed. Note that some items and services will need to

setup of the system network.
Section 4 43,/-:7'9/43 – Covers the first steps necessary to set up the console surface in order to

out!)
Section 5 *2/3/897'9/43 – The console can be configured in different ways depending on the degree of
control required by individual users (ie. access levels). This section covers these level settings and
also looks at maintenence and remote monitoring functions.
