# Scenes and User Profiles

> Scene and access profile management

The user and scene management screen allows:

* Changing the active user
* Changing the current scene
* Using advanced channel organization functions

Access it by pressing the **SCENES** option, available in the contextual buttons when the console shows the **main screen**.

## USERS

The **USER LOGIN** area (1) shows the currently active user and allows switching to another user by touching the corresponding option.\
There are **three user levels** with different preset permissions. Restrictions apply both to console screen operation and remote web interface.

### BASIC User

Most restricted profile:

* No password protection
* No access to advanced configuration options (SETTINGS)
* Can change scenes but cannot save changes or create new scenes
* Can view processor settings and status but cannot modify or turn them on/off
* Can temporarily modify basic channel options (**GAIN**, **NAME**, **PAN**, **CHANNEL ACTIONS**) but cannot save changes to the scene

### EXPERT User

Profile with intermediate restrictions:

* Password protected (default: `expert`). Only ADMIN user can change it
* Like BASIC, no access to advanced configuration (SETTINGS)
* Full access to audio processing
* In **CHANNEL** screen can change **gain**, **pan**, **name**, **input assignment** and **channel mode**, but cannot access SETTINGS
* Can save current scene, except if protected
* Can create new scenes, even from a protected one

### ADMIN User

Profile with full access:

* Password protected (default: `admin`). Can change all passwords from **SETTINGS** screen
* Can create protected or read-only scenes that are operational for BASIC and EXPERT but only editable by ADMIN

<Note>
  Passwords are defined in the **SETTINGS - USERS** screen.
</Note>

#### Startup User

On power up, the console starts with a predefined user profile (factory default: ADMIN) and never requests password.

In **SETTINGS → USERS** you can:

* Change the startup user
* **Change passwords** for ADMIN and EXPERT

## SCENES

A **scene** stores all console configuration, except system settings (network, streaming, startup user, etc.). It includes:

* Input and output configuration
* Channel and bus assignments
* Gains
* Audio processor settings

Scenes allow quickly loading a preset configuration according to each show's requirements; for example, reassigning inputs, changing channel order or adjusting microphone processors.

<Warning>
  The scene must be saved after modifying any parameter (gain, equalizer, channel name, etc.) for the change to be permanently stored.
</Warning>

### Available Scenes

The list (see 2 in image) shows 12 user scenes.

* Navigate by turning the encoder and confirm by pressing it
* Active scene is highlighted in **light blue**
* Selected scene (but not confirmed) is highlighted in **orange**

### Protected Scenes (Lock)

* Only **ADMIN** profile can create them
* Identified with a padlock icon
* BASIC and EXPERT users can load them but cannot modify or delete them

### Scene Manager

Presents two option groups: for the **selected scene** and for the **active scene**.

**LOAD**: Loads the selected scene. Can be done from touchscreen, contextual button or encoder.

* Requires confirmation (cancels after 8 seconds if not confirmed)
* All profiles can load any scene
* If channels are on-air, they remain active even if position changes, maintaining bus assignments
* If the new assigned channel has a different fader level, previous digital level is maintained and indicated by flashing OLED
* **Audio cuts if previously on-air input is not assigned** to a channel in new scene
* Cannot change scenes with telephone line on-air or on hold

**RENAME**: Changes selected scene name.

* Disabled for BASIC

**COPY CURRENT**: Copies active scene over selected scene.

* Requires confirmation
* Disabled for BASIC

**SET TO DEFAULT**: Restores active scene to factory configuration.

* Disabled for BASIC

**SAVE**: Saves current configuration of:

* Input assignment to 24 channels
* Signal assignment to outputs
* Specific input/output configuration (phantom, MIX-MINUS modes, etc.)
* Input and output gains
* Channel labels and actions
* Audio processor settings
* Assignment status, including VBUS

<Warning>
  Scene does **not save** status of **ON-AIR** or **CUE** buttons.
</Warning>

### Factory Scenes

Any of the 12 scenes can be reset to a default configuration. Additionally, UNIDEX comes from factory with scenes designed with different configurations and UDX expansions, intended as base or example for creating new configurations.

### Export and Import Scenes

Scenes can be exported and imported from the **WEB control interface**.\
From the scene management option in web control, each scene can be exported as a disk file. And later imported into any of the 12 available positions.

## Channel Map

The **CHANNEL MAP** function shows all channel configuration and allows easy reordering.\
There are two operation modes: **SWAP 2 CH** (swap two channels) and **ORDER CH** (reorganize channels).

### SWAP 2 CH

Allows swapping position of two channels.

**Procedure:**

1. Press **SWAP 2 CH** to enable option
2. Select the two channels to swap from the list
3. Press **APPLY** to execute swap
4. Press **SAVE** to store changes in current scene

## ORDER CH

Allows assigning new positions to one or more channels.

**Procedure:**

1. Press **ORDER CH**.\
   A dropdown menu appears right of channel number, allowing new position assignment
2. Touch screen menu and choose new position for channel.\
   Multiple channels can be relocated at once

<Warning>
  If assigning a channel to an occupied position, destination channel information will be overwritten when applying changes.
</Warning>

3. Press **APPLY** to confirm
   * **APPLY** applies changes temporarily (not saved yet)
   * Changes are lost if scene is abandoned without saving
4. Press **SAVE** for changes to be permanent in scene
5. To cancel, deactivate **ORDER CH** by touching option again or press **BACK** contextual button
