Core Manager

Q-SYS Core Manager contains a set of tools for managing Q-SYS Core processors. Beginning with Q-SYS version 8.0, it replaces many of the configuration and management functions formerly found in Q-SYS Administrator and Q-SYS Configurator.

Accessing Q-SYS Core Manager

Q-SYS Core Manager is accessible from Q-SYS Designer or from a browser.

Note: If Access Control is enabled, a login username and password are required to log in to Q-SYS Core Manager. For more information, see Users.

View and configure how the Q-SYS Core connects to the network.

Date & Time

Adjust the Q-SYS Core's date, time, and time zone.

Services (Network)

Disable unused network services on a per-network adapter level. See a summary of all enabled network services and protocols.

SNMP

Configure SNMP access on the Q-SYS Core processor.

Certificates

Install device certificates on the Q-SYS Core processor to meet organization security requirements and allow web browsers to trust connections to the Core.

802.1X

Enable or disable 802.1X for each LAN interface to comply with network security requirements.

Multicast

Configure the IP address ranges used for multicast address assignment for the Q-SYS cameras, video endpoints, and AES67 transmitters in your design.

Users

Enable Access Control, add users, and assign user roles.

Roles

View role permissions and create custom user roles for Core management.

Licensing

Activate, back up, and restore QSC Feature Licenses on the Q-SYS Core processor.

Audio Files

Utilities

Download the Q-SYS log file (if requested by Q-SYS Support), change the Core 510i operation mode, and reboot the Q-SYS Core processor.

Reflect

Register the Core with Q-SYS Reflect Enterprise Manager and test your Core's ability to connect to the Reflect servers.

System Management

User Control Interfaces

Manage access to the UCIs contained in your design.

Softphones

Configure Softphone global parameters and individual Softphone parameters.

Contacts

Create Local and LDAP contact books for use by the Contact List component, which you can then use to feed dial strings into a Softphone.

Cameras

View and set properties for all Q-SYS cameras in your design.

Video Endpoints
