This button launches the Hilo Remote Main Menu, where these additional controls and menus are available:
Connection:
This page reveals the method that Hilo Remote communicates to the Hilo hardware. In the rare case that both a Thunderbolt Hilo
AND USB Hilo were connected to the same computer, then the user could select which unit the software controlled. The TCP/IP
selection would be used when Hilo Remote is installed on a computer other than the computer that is streaming audio to the Hilo. For
instance, you can use an iPad or portable computer to run Hilo Remote while a desktop computer has the Hilo connected to it. Details
about how to configure such a system are at the end of this section.
Restore Defaults:
This returns the Mixer (and Hilo hardware) to its factory default state. Routing, Sync Source, state of the Adapter and LSLOT panes,
all can be impacted.
Restore defaults is an excellent troubleshooting tool. When things are not going as expected, this is a good first step to try.
Open Scene:
This feature allows user-defined mixer scenes to be restored. Mixer scene files can be saved to any directory on the computer’s hard
drive. After clicking “Open Scene” navigate to the directory where the desired scene file has been saved, highlight the file and click
“Open”. Please note: scenes saved from the Hilo Remote app are independent from the scenes saved on the Hilo touch screen.
Save Scene:
This feature provides the ability to save all user-selectable parameters. “Scenes” that contain the state of all device settings can be
saved to a file on the computer hard drive. Recalling Scenes is a very quick and efficient way to revert Hilo to an appropriate state for
different contexts of use.
Scene memory is global to all users on a single computer and is initially empty. There is no limit to the number of scenes that can be
stored. After “Save Scene” is selected, A FILE NAME will need to be created and a directory selected for the mixer scene file to be
written to. The current Hilo Remote parameters will be stored into scene memory. Selecting an existing scene name and clicking the
Save button will overwrite that scene with the current parameters.
To delete a scene simply delete the mixer scene file from the hard drive. Please note that scenes saved from the Hilo Remote app are
independent from the scenes saved on the Hilo touch screen.
When the computer is shut down, the current state is saved. When the computer is restarted, the previous state is restored. This
function is independent of Mixer Scene operation.
