D-Control Name Page

The Name page is used to view and change D-Control unit

names. These names appear in the Pro Tools Peripherals dia-

log, and must be unique so as to identify each D-Control unit

correctly. This is especially important if your system is on an

Ethernet network with multiple controllers connected to it.

To display the Name page for a D-Control unit:

1 Put the unit you want to name into Utility mode. Fader

Modules must be put into Utility mode independently. (See

“Entering Utility Mode on a Fader Module” on page 137.)

2 From the Utility Setup page, press the Soft Key (Main Unit)

or the encoder Select switch (Fader Module) that corresponds

to “Name.”

The Main Unit name appears in the Soft Keys section. The

Fader Module name appears in its encoder displays. The first

character of the name flashes to indicate text entry.

To change the unit name:

1 Turn the Scrub/Shuttle wheel (Main Unit) or any encoder

knob (Fader Module) to change the selected text.

2 To move forward and backward through the name field,

press the flashing Soft Keys (Main Unit) or encoder Select

switches (Fader Module) that correspond to the “<” and “>”

symbols.

3 When you are finished entering text, do one of the follow-

ing:

• Confirm the new name by pressing the Soft Key (Main

Unit) or the encoder Select switch (Fader Module) that

corresponds to “OK.”

• Clear the name field by pressing the Soft Key (Main Unit)

or the encoder Select switch (Fader Module) that corre-

sponds to “Clear.”

• Cancel the new name by pressing the Soft Key (Main

Unit) or the encoder Select switch (Fader Module) that

corresponds to “Cancel.”
