SETUP
CONFIGURATION OPTIONS SCREEN
The Configuration Options screen is used to select options which customize the operation of the MG2500. At the top of the Configuration
Options screen, the Serial Number and Firmware Version of the MG2500 will be displayed. MG2500 software can operate ‘off-line’ (with
no product connected) by opening a ‘new’ file. The Serial Number and Firmware Version are not displayed for ‘new’ (‘off-line’) files.
Device Name allows a custom name to be given to the particular MG2500, by entering up to 30 characters of text. The Device Name will
be stored in the MG2500 memory, and will be displayed on the title bar of the Main screen whenever that MG2500 is accessed with the
software. Device Number allows a device number (0~63) to be assigned to the currently active MG2500. This allows multiple MG2500 (or
other ATLAS SOUND
® programmable products) to be individually controlled when linked together. Unique device numbers must be
assigned to each device before the devices are linked together. Temperature selects the desired air temperature to be used in calculating
Velocity of Sound (seen below). Temperature, and the resultant Velocity of Sound, are global parameters which affect distance/delay
calculations for the Delay section. Set Password allows the MG2500 to be assigned a password (up to seven characters), which will then
be required before any future software communication with that unit is allowed. NOTE: When multiple programmable products are
connected in a system configuration (via Serial & Link Ports), it is strongly recommended that only one unit in the system be assigned a
password. A single unit having a password will prevent software communication with all units in the system. Communication with other
units will still be possible, but only by first dis-connecting them from the unit which has been assigned a password. Help provides
additional instruction. Close will close the Configuration Options screen.
