OPERATION

Using the 6300 PC Remote Control Software

To set up a new connection:

example, in dual mono mode, setting T
but not to channel 2.
6300 PC Remote control software allows you to access any front-panel 6300 control
remotely. Moreover, you can access all of the Advanced Modify controls that are un-
available from the 6300's front panel. The software also gives you the ability to
backup user presets, system files, and automation files to your computer's storage
devices (hard drives, etc.) and to restore them later to your 6300.
The 6300 PC Remote software can connect to your 6300 via modem, direct serial ca-
ble connection, or Ethernet network. It communicates with your 6300 via the TCP/IP
protocol, regardless of how it is connected to your 6300.
PC Remote works best on displays of 1024x768 pel or higher. Scroll bars
will appear when using lower resolutions.
Before running 6300 PC Remote, you must have installed the appropriate Windows
communications services on your computer. By default, the installer installs a short-
cut to 6300PC.exe on your desktop and in your Start Menu under Orban\Optimod
6300.
6300 PC Remote can control only one 6300 at a time, but it can readily switch be-
tween several 6300s. 6300 PC Remote has a built-in "address book" that allows it to
select and connect to:

any 6300 on the same network as the PC,

any 6300 that can be accessed through a modem connected to the PC via dial-up
networking, and,

any 6300 that is connected directly to one of the PC's serial ports.
Before your PC can communicate with a given 6300, you must first set up a "connec-
tion," which is information that allows PC Remote to locate and communicate with
the 6300.
A) Launch 6300PC.exe.
B) Create a new 6300 connection by choosing N
menu or by right clicking on the A
