Background information

4-2 GC Operation
In order to activate the automatic import of your device labels from the device
label file, two conditions must be met:
• There must be a preset file named '
current session configuration and holding your device label names.
• The 'User Device Labels' option in the SysAdmin/Device Labels menu
must be activated.
This will automatically show the device labels in the General Patch window
when switching to the corresponding label mode.
As you know, these labels are normally not changed for a specific session,
but will stay constant in a studio installation. This is why they are saved in a
preset ( ) file, being valid for a whole session configuration, rather than
*.pre
just a snapshot or title. If you make a new session configuration or edit an
existing one using the Session Configuration Tool, you will need to import
the '
__DeviceLabels.pre
If you create a device label file from scratch or overwrite an existing one with
a new one, you may proceed as follows:
• Enter the device labels into the USER LABEL field of the patch (input
ports and output ports). Do this in the USER LABEL field.
• Enter SysAdmin mode in the GC by clicking the padlock icon on the
toolbar, and enter the system password.
• Go to the SysAdmin/Device Labels menu and select 'Save and Apply User
Labels as Device Labels'.
Since the device labels are saved in a regular preset file, you just log in as
the system administrator and recall the '
see the device labels again in the patch (USER LABEL field). Now you may
edit them; then either click UPDATE, or go to the SysAdmin / Device Labels
/ 'Save and Apply User Labels as Device Labels' menu.
If you are using the device label functionality (option SysAdmin/Device
Labels/Use Device Labels), you activate an automatic and repetitive import
of these labels from the '
create any snapshots, the current device labels will be part of the snapshot.
However, if you recall older snapshots that have been saved at a time when
no device labels were active, that snapshot on the disk will not be changed at
all. The snapshot will be loaded onto your console, visualized as it was saved
in your General Patch screen; but an instant later the current device labels
of your console will be copied into your patch. If you now choose to update
your snapshot or make any new ones, these will contain exactly the labels
you see on your General Patch screen.
