External AES50 synchronisation

If you want to connect AES50 audio between two Midas digital consoles the slave
console must be set to external AES50 synchronisation, irrespective of the
synchronisation source of the master console.

A valid connection can be a tie line between the stage routers or the secondary port
(Bx/By) of a mic splitter that has its primary port (Ax/Ay) connected to the master
console.

Security (locking mode)

If you need to leave the control centre unattended, but you want to preserve its current
state of operation, you can lock it via the GUI menu. This will prevent unauthorised
adjustment of its settings. When locked the GUI displays the 'splash' screens (shown
during the start up sequence) and none of the controls on the control surface will
function; the control centre will be totally locked out.
>> To lock the control centre
At the GUI, choose home
>> To unlock the control centre
At the GUI, click UNLOCK. This button is in the lower-left corner of
both GUI screens. For security, this button has been designed to blend
in with the background to disguise it. When unlocked, the control
centre will revert to the state it was in the last time it was locked.
