2 Un-pack There are two v ariants of the V4 Logictivity upgrade kit. One for the original A WS900 Classic Console and one for the AWS900+ Console. Depending on the model of console y our V4 Logictivit.
3 Introduction Thank you for purchasing the A WS V4 Logictivity upgrade for your A WS console. After installation your system will benefit from the full range of AWS900+ SE V4 features.
4 1. Exchanging the Monitor PR OM The exchange of the CPU car d’ s Monitor PR OM is only necessar y on A WS 900 Classic consoles. The Monitor PR OM on the A WS 900+ CPU already incorporates A WS Logictivity support. The instructions on exchanging the M onitor PR OM are intended for technically competent personnel.
5 4) U sing the P ozidrive screwdriver , remo ve the four screws securing meter panel 17-24 in position. T ilt the panel forward slightly and lift the panel out of its slot. Lay the panel onto channels 17-24. I t is not necessary to unplug any of the meter panel’ s connections.
6 6) The A WS900’ s CPU card will now be visible. With the help of the picture below locate the car d’ s Monitor PR OM in PCB location CD. 7) U sing the supplied PLCC IC puller , remove the existing PR OM. Squeeze the tool to align its hooks with the slots in opposite corners of the socket.
7 8) N ote the key (angled corner) on the replacement Monitor PR OM. Align the replacement PR OM to match the key on the socket. Carefully ensure corr ect orientation of the IC then press in place. Ex cessive force should not be necessary . 9) F ollow steps 3, 4 and 5 in reverse to r eassemble the console.
8 2. Enabling the AWS V4 Logictivity features on your console 1) Y our update kit contains two licence strings, one for Logictivity and one for V4 software, both licences must be registered befor e downloading software. 2) F ind the c onso le ’ s ser ial nu mber .
9 3. Installing the V4 software update 1) After successfully activating both licences follow the link belo w and download the software .jar file, the r elease not es an d ei the r the Ma cin to sh or Wind ows su ppo rt f ile s, as re qui red . The sof twa re is p ack ag ed as a 3 MB (approximately) J ava archive file.
10 4) Doub le click on the AWS Softwar e U pdate file. Y ou should see the SSL AWS Software U pdate window appear . 5) Go to the I n MIDI P ort menu. F rom the drop do wn list, select the MIDI IN port which is connected to MIDI port 1 on your AWS co nsole.
11 7) Click on the ‘T est’ button. This will transmit a packet of data to the AWS console which then in turn should r eturn an acknowledge packet back to the computer . If the test was successful the message 'Comms test passed, now use send' will be displayed.
12 9) Once the code has been successfully transferr ed click on the ‘Save ’ button to stor e the new software – this takes appr ox imate ly 60 se conds . A pro gre ss bar al lo ws you t o obse rve th e savin g pro cess . Dur ing th is time i t is imp orta nt that pow er to AW S is not interrup ted.
13 4. Suppor t software installation (Macintosh) A WS Remote Mount the AWS924-948Remote.dmg disk image and open it. D rag the enclosed AWS R emote application to the Applications folder , then to the Dock or any other convenient location. ipMIDI Mount the ipMIDI.
14 5. Suppor t software installation (PC) A WS Remote Open the W indows support files package and copy the AWS924-928Remote.exe file to the Pr ogram F iles folder (or any other convenient location) then create a shortcut to it on your desktop and/or task bar .
15 6. Make and configure the network connection The A WS Logictivity software is designed to communicate with your workstation over Ethernet using the ipMIDI driver to emulate a multiport MIDI interface. The ipMIDI driver enables your workstation to send and receive MIDI control data via a network connection.
16 7. Direct network configur ation (Macintosh) Please note that currently OS X does not allo w two ports to be used for IP traf fic. As such, the connection to your main network will not be available while the AWS is connected.
17 N ext select the Ethernet port which is connected to the AWS and configure as shown below:.
18 If your Macintosh featur es multiple network ports, you should set the priority of these so that the E thernet port connected to your AWS is at the top of the list.
19 N ow drag the port connected to the AWS to the top of the list (in our example this port is E thernet 2): N ow click OK, then Apply . Alternatively , if you have already created a separate Location.
20 8. Direct network configuration ( PC) Double click on N etwork Connections in Start/Control P anel. Right click on the network adapter connected to your A WS (likely to be called "Local Area Connection"). Select P roperties. Select Internet P rotocol (TCP/IP) and P roperties.
21 N ext, configure the adapter as shown belo w: Click on OK on both windows to save. B ack in your network connection list, right click on your adaptor and ensur e that it is enabled. If it is disabled, the enable option will appear in the list. Click on enable.
22 9. Enabling ipMIDI on your AW S In the SSL/MISC/SETUP menu, toggle the ’MIDI Connects V ia ’ setting to ‘N etwork ’. Y our console will now communicate with your workstation via Ethernet.
23 10. Finding the console using the AWS R emote application Launch AWS Remote on y our workstation. If you only hav e one AWS console on the network, A WS Remote will automatically locate the console.
24 11. Setting y ou workstation(s) to communicate via ipMIDI The AWS Logictivity software enables 12 MIDI port s which are pre-assigned as follo ws: N ote that there are no w two switchable workstation layers allo wing two independent workstations to be interfaced.
25 T o enable control of your wor kstation via HUI or MCU your workstation(s) must be configur ed to match the appropriate layer in the list abo ve. This is done using the MIDI Controller configuration page of your w orkstation.
26 If you have AWSomation, set the MT C generator port in the Synchronization tab to ipMIDI port 7:.
27 Also, set the MMC MIDI port in the Machine Contr ol tab to ipMIDI port 7:.
28 Logic P ro 9 When Logic is assigned to one of the two AWS wor kstation layers a Mackie Contr ol together with a Mackie Control Extender must be added to the Logic P ro Pr eferences/Control S urfaces Setup menu. A WS F aders 1-8 are mapped to the Mackie Control ports along with the M aster F ader and workstation Control function switches.
29 Fig 11.1 Logic control surface setup menu.
30 Fig 11.2 Click and Port MIDI port mapping.
31 If you have AWSomation, set the MMC midi port in F ile/P roject Settings/S ynchronisation/MIDI to ipMIDI port 7: F or other DA Ws, please refer to the program ’ s manual for details about configuring MIDI controllers. T o find out about the new V4 featur es and their operation download the Owner ’s guide fr om our website.
32 13. Network tr oubleshooting Most E thernet adaptor cards have two LEDs associated with each port. The first indicates that the link is connected and the second indicates network traf fic. Please note that some Macintosh computers do not hav e external LEDs to indicate status.
33 • U sing the fixed default IP address on the console, check that the workstation has basic communications using ‘ ping’. On W indows: Select Run under the S tart menu. In the resulting window enter cmd to launch the command prompt. In the command prompt window enter ping 192.
34 14. Larger networks T o ensure minimum latency the ipMIDI driver uses multicast UDP rather than TCP/IP . This means that: • The network connection should be as short as possible and should only use routers that can support high data transfer rates.
35 Configure the switch in the static multicast gr oups page to forward packets with a multicast mac address of 01-00- 5E- 00-00-25 to only the ports which the AWS900+ and the DA W computer are connected to. F or the Netgear GS108T , the configuration looks like this: In this configuration, ipM idi data will only be passed to ports 1 and 2.
36 15. Assigning the AWS IP address By default, AWS uses a fixed IP address of 192.168.1.2. Dynamic (DHCP) address allocation can be selected via the SSL/NET menu.
37 Set the terminal as follo ws: Baud rate 19200, 8 data bits, N o parity , No start bit, 1 stop bit, F low control Xon/Xof f P ress the ‘Return ’ key (<CR>) and the terminal window sh ould echo a ‘ > ’ if communication is established.
38 16. SSL Logictivity badge In the upgrade kit you ’ll find a small badge designed to show your console has been upgraded for Logictivity . Carefully attach this badge to the meter -bridge location illustrated below .
39 17. Soft ware licence agr eement S S o o f f t t w w a a r r e e L L i i c c e e n n c c e e A A g g r r e e e e m m e e n n t t : : Solid State Logic (‘SSL’) is willing to license this AWS sof.
