Assign PL remotes
PL Series remote control functions can be assigned:
Select the Surface SURFACE / PL-Anet Setup screen or Editor Setup menu to view and edit the assignments of any PL Series remote control devices currently connected.
Note - PL devices must be connected before assigning their controls. The system identifies each device by type, their location (MixRack or Surface) and order in which they are connected. Names may be applied to each PL location. These are stored in the iLive not the PL devices.
Several remotes may be connected by daisy chaining PL-Anet CAT5 cables between them. Make sure the last device in the chain has its terminator plugged in. If preferred, you can connect each with its own cable back to the iLive by using the Allen & Heath PL-9 PL-Anet hub for example, for on-stage personal monitor hookup. Check that all connected PL devices have their green Power LEDs illuminated. If the LED is off or red then check the cables and connections.
Select the Unit and Device from the screen. Use the screen selection boxes to scroll to the Control Type and Number you wish to assign. Use the drop down Function and LED Setting menus to assign the required functions. Press Apply to accept each change.
Each PL switch, LED, fader or encoder can be assigned in a similar way to the Surface Soft Keys. Plan your application before starting, and save your settings as a PL Library item or Scene when you are finished. Libraries can be transferred between systems via USB key.
Note - If you have assigned PL switches to recall Scenes
then these Scenes should be transferred to or set up in the same way on the other iLive.
