Locking Functions
6.9.1 Overview
MA Netcontrol functions may be locked to prevent unauthorized or inadvertent changes to either the
currently loaded configuration or to the operating status of amplifiers on the network.
Two different Lock modes are provided:
Configuration lock – This mode locks all Edit functions. No changes to the currently loaded
configuration are allowed. Operate functions (power on/off, solo and mute) remain enabled when MA
Netcontrol is in the Online state and Operate mode.
Operations lock – Both Edit and Operate functions are locked. MA Netcontrol essentially functions
in a "monitor mode". All status, warning and fault indications remain available, but no changes are
allowed to the configuration or to any operational function.
6.9.2 Selecting lock mode
To select the desired Lock mode, open the View menu and choose Lock Settings. Select either Use
Operations Lock or Use Configuration lock. Operations Lock is available only when MA Netcontrol is in
Operate mode.
6.9.3 Locking and unlocking
Use the toolbar Lock icon to lock or unlock Device-Control. Alternatively, you can click on Lock Device
Control in the View menu, or use the keyboard command Ctrl+L.
6.9.4 Password protection
You may require a password to unlock MA Netcontrol when locked in either mode. To access the password
protection feature, select Lock Settings from the View menu and click on Password Protection. To select a
Password, select Lock Settings from the View menu and click on Set Password.
Note: Password may not be changed while in a password protected lock mode. You must exit lock mode by
entering current password before a new password can be selected.
6.9.5 Keep lock state
When closing the Device Control application while in Configuration Lock, the application remains locked
when restarted. If password protected, the password must be entered to unlock Device Control.
