PM1D System Software V1.6 Supplementary Manual
This supplementary manual explains the functionality that has been added or changed in PM1D system soft­ware V1.6. Please use this manual in conjunction with the existing manuals.
*In cases where the console (CS1D) display differs from the screen of the PM1D Manager application program, expla-
nations that apply only to the PM1D Manager are distinguished by an indication of [PM1D Manager].
Additions and changes in V1.6
The additions and changes made in PM1D system software V1.6 are summarized below. For details on each function, refer to the corresponding page.
Improvements to functions that were added in V1.5 (
Of the new functions that were added in V1.5, “Panel Assign” and “Unit Name” have been improved.
Channel name area added to the EQ CH and LCR screens (
An area that displays the channel names has been added to the EQ CH screens of the IN EQ function, and to the LCR screen of the PAN/ROUTING.
DCA Auto Naming function (
The DCA [NAME] indicator in the DCA GROUP block can now be made to display the channel names of the two last-assigned channels.
Input Channel Auto Naming function (
p.11)
You can now make the INPUT block INPUT [NAME] indicator always display the port name.
Pan Nominal Position (
You now have the option of specifying that paired input channels (or ST IN channels) will be at nomi­nal level (0 dB) when panned to far left or right.
DCA Unity (
When cue-monitoring a DCA group, it is now possi­ble to always monitor the unity-level signal regard­less of the state of the DCA fader or DCA [MUTE] switch.
Scene Link Event (
You can now cause a pre-programmed string of MIDI events to be output from the desired MIDI OUT connector when a specific scene is recalled.
Selective Recall (
A Selective Recall function has been added, allowing you to specify for each scene, parameters/channels that will be excluded from recall when that scene is recalled.
Extended functionality for Recall Safe (
p.21)
The Recall Safe function has been extended, resulting in slight changes to the Recall Safe screen, and add­ing parameters that can be set to Recall Safe.

p.9)
Clear Library (
A CLEAR button has been added to each library screen, allowing you to erase a library as desired.
Extended functionality for the attenua­tors (
p.23)
The functionality of the input channel attenuators has been expanded to allow cut/boost in a range of –96 to +24 dB.
Global Channel Copy (
Now you can choose desired parameters from the currently selected channel, and copy them to multi­ple channels of the same type in a single operation.
Input Meter Bridge (
The levels of input channels and ST IN channels can now be displayed in the meter bridge.
Parameter Lock/Console Lock (
By specifying a password, the user can prevent cer­tain parameters from being edited until the correct password is input, or prohibit console operations.
Surround panning (
Surround Pan functionality has been added, allowing sounds from an input channel to be placed in a two­dimensional space when a multi-channel playback system is used.
Multi-band dynamics processor (
A multi-band dynamics processor that includes an independent compressor for each of three bands has been added as an effect type for the internal effects.
File transfer mode (
Data saved on a computer in which PM1D Manager is installed can now be uploaded to the console, and CS1D settings can be downloaded to the computer.
Additional preference items (
The following items have been added to the UTIL­ITY function PREFERENCE screen.
PROHIBIT DCA ASSIGN ON SELECTED CH BLOCK
SKIP CONFIRMATIONS FOR MIX MINUS SHORTCUT
LIBRARY PROTECTION

Improvements to functions that were added in V1.5
Improvements to functions that were added in V1.5
The following improvements have been made to the new functions that were added in V1.5.
Panel Assign in the ST IN block
In V1.5, a PANEL ASSIGN screen was added to the UTILITY function, allowing the combination of input channels and ST IN channels reflected in the panel to be specified for each individual block.

However for ST IN channels, the combinations that could be assigned to the panel were limited to the following four possibilities.

This limitation has been removed in V1.6. For example, any two ST IN channels of consecutive number such as ST IN channels 1/2 and 5/6, or 1/2 and 7/8, can be combined freely. Also, if necessary, you may assign combinations of the same ST IN channel to upper and lower ST IN blocks; e.g., ST IN channels 1/2 and 1/2, or ST IN channels 5/6 and 5/6.

Improvements to functions that were added in V1.5
Panel display of the unit name
In V1.5, the UNIT NAME screen added to the SYS/W.CLOCK function allowed you to assign a name to each port of each input/output unit or card. In addition, if you turned on the UNIT NAME button in the NAME MODE area at the bot­tom of the screen, the name of the port assigned to that channel would be displayed instead of the short name of the input channel shown in the screen.
In V1.6 when you turn on the UNIT NAME button in the NAME MODE area, the INPUT [NAME] indicator in the INPUT block will also show the name of the port assigned to that channel.

Channel name area added to the EQ CH and LCR screens
An area that displays the channel name of each channel has been added to the EQ CH screens (CH 1-24, CH 25-48, CH 49-72, CH 73-96, ST IN 1-8) of the IN EQ function and to the LCR screen of the PAN/ROUTING function.
Channel name area
If the CH NAME button located in the NAME MODE area at the bottom of the display is turned on, this area will show the short name of the corresponding channel.
EQ CH screen
LCR screen
Short name of the input channel
When the UNIT NAME button is on, the name of the port assigned to that channel will be displayed.

DCA name
DCA Auto Naming function
DCA Auto Naming function
Normally, the DCA [NAME] indicator in the DCA GROUP block will display the name assigned to each DCA group.
In V1.6, the channel names of the last-assigned two channels can also be displayed in the DCA [NAME] indi­cator. (This is called the “DCA auto naming function.”)
DCA auto naming procedure
The auto naming procedure is as follows.
1. Access the IN PATCH/OUT PATCH function NAME screen.
