11.1 Purpose of User Modes
The console is used in different studios with different working practice
and different personnel structure. A large part of users in broadcast studios
is not technically oriented. A mixing console meeting their requirements
must be simple to use, reliable and free of “unnecessary” controls and dis-
plays. Setting of a wider range of console parameters, saving of console
settings (snapshots), and modifications of the console configuration have
to be left for technically more competent users (studio technicians, chief
engineer). It is also necessary to protect parts of system data and give the
permission to change them only to a restricted number of users. In order to
satisfy these needs, the OnAir 2000M2 console supports individual user
access rights.
Three classes of users are defined for the OnAir 2000M2; these are:
Default User: • No password required;
• Private snapshots and mic settings;
• User channel routing;
• Function access rights according to the configuration.
Normal User: • Password-protected;
• Private snapshots and mic settings;
• User channel routing;
• Function access rights according to the configuration.
System Administrator: • Password-protected;
• User channel routing;
• Unlimited access rights to all functions;
• Defines new users;
• Defines access rights for all users;
• Stores global snapshots, global mic settings, and global channel rout-
ings.
• Stores private snapshots, private mic settings, and user channel routings
for all users.
The table in chapter 11.2 shows the functions to which access is configur-
able in the OnAir 2000M2.
