In an RM4200D you can store 7 Mixer Setups and 250 Channel Setups. These setups are stored in the Flash memory of the RM420-850 Communication Controller. You can increase the number of Mixer Setups to be stored by using an RM420-013 Central Overbridge Module with card reader and respective memory cards.

Except for the Default Mixer Setup (0), all Mixer Setups (1..6) can be overwritten with the aid of according key functions of the control desk. The same applies to Channel Setups 1..250. The Setup Manager is also the right tool if you want to save different states of individual or all Mixer Setups or of individual or all Channel Setups outside the RM4200D, in order to be able to repeatedly restore them to the Device (Backup Functions).

Even if it should be necessary to replace the RM420-850 Communication Controller, you have to ensure that the Mixer and Channel Setups stored in this module can be read out and transferred into the exchange module. Using the Setup Manager, you can easily organize this data transfer.(See “Backups” on page 130.)

The Setup Manager enables you to save all setup data of an RM4200D in a file on a PC (Backup) for restoration purposes. The software also allows storage of individual Mixer Setups or individual Channel Setups in files on a PC. With the aid of the PC, you can archive the setup data and, if required, copy them to the same or to another similarly configured RM4200D System.

Furthermore, the Setup Manager can show the data stored in setups, and give the user information about which parameters affect certain channels.
