Revision 1 2012-13 CDC FOUR
Maintenance page
NOTE: Selecting the Maintenance page from the System Settings page stops
the CDC FOUR’s main operating program and starts a separate software routine.
Audio is muted in Maintenance mode, so this page should not be opened during
performance. Loading the maintenance page takes approx. 20 seconds.
The following options are available from the Maintenance page via the Softkeys:
Softkey 1 (Full Backup): This permits all settings, parameters and firmware in
the CDC FOUR to be saved to an external memory device connected to the
USB port in the Central Control Module. It effectively creates a full “image” of the
console for security purposes.
A full backup creates a zip file cdc4-update.zip in the root folder of the
memory device. The size of the file is approx. 2MB.
Softkey 2 (Scene Backup): This allows the current Scene List to be backed up
to external memory. A zip file cdc4-scene.zip is created in the root folder of
the memory device. Note – any subsequent Backup will overwrite the previously-
saved file, as the filename is unique.
Softkey 3 (Full Restore): Selecting this option will allow all the CDC FOUR’s
settings to be restored in full to a previously-saved state. The Full Restore
procedure looks for a backup zip file on the memory device, and will automatically
restore all settings without further operator action.
Softkey 4 (Scene Restore): This option loads a previously-saved Scene List into
the CDC FOUR, thus allowing the “running order” of a show to be restored.
Softkey 5 (Net Update): Select this option to perform a remote software update.
The CDC FOUR will automatically download the latest software directly from
Cadac’s support server.
WARNING: Performing a Net Update will delete ALL console settings, including
all stored Scenes. Before proceeding with the update procedure it is strongly
recommended that either a Full Backup or Scene Backup is performed.
