S3L System Guide164

Authorizing Plug-Ins

A core set of plug-ins are installed on your S3L system. These

plug-ins do not require any authorization. Other plug-ins, such as

the S3L plug-ins downloaded from your Avid account and paid

plug-ins from Avid and our Development Partners, require autho-

rization.

The S3L system supports iLok USB Smart Key authorization. Li-

censes that authorize the use of a plug-in are transfered from your

iLok account to your iLok. This lets you take your iLok and your

plug-in licenses anywhere, to use your plug-ins on any system.

After installing a plug-in, the system re-creates the list of avail-

able plug-ins. Whenever the racks initialize, the system checks

for all installed plug-ins. If an iLok with a license for an installed

plug-in is not connected to the E3 engine, you will be prompted to

try a demo version, or authorize the full version of the plug-in.

To authorize a plug-in:

1 When a plug-in authorization dialog appears, do one of the fol-

lowing:

• To try a demo of the plug-in, click

Try.

– or –

• To have the system recognize the required license on your

iLok, click

Authorize. Insert your iLok into any available

USB port on the E3 engine when prompted.

2 Follow the instructions on-screen to complete the software au-

thorization process.

Enabling and Disabling Installed Plug-Ins

The Installed Plug-Ins list shows Disabled plug-ins in italics.

Plug-Ins can be manually disabled and enabled to manage DSP

resources, troubleshoot possible conflicts, and to manage plug-in

availability.

To globally disable or enable a plug-in:

1 Click to select the plug-in name in the Installed Plug-Ins list, at

the right of the

Options > Plug-Ins page.

2 Right-click the plug-in and select whether to disable or enable

the selected plug-in. If assigned to any rack slots, the plug-in

will be displayed as unavailable and inactive.

Automatically Removing Plug-ins During

Show Load

Plug-ins are verified during the Show file load procedure to

streamline plug-in lists and menus by automatically removing un-

used plug-ins (plug-ins that were once installed but subsequently

uninstalled or disabled).

In addition, the plug-in lists can be reset manually using the

Re-

move Unavailable Plug-ins

command. Plug-ins which are not

available and not in use in the rack are automatically filtered from

all plug-in menu lists when the show file is subsequently stored.

This filtered list is stored with the Show file.

Plug-ins which are not available but are in use will remain in the

rack and display a warning icon indicating the plug-in isn’t in-

stalled or is disabled. Such plug-ins appear as italicized entries in

the plug-ins menu lists.

Manually Removing Unavailable Plug-ins

from the Racks

Unavailable plug-ins can be easily removed from rack slots using

the Remove Unavailable Plug-Ins command.

To manually remove unavailable plug-ins:

1 Put the system in Config mode. Make sure the plug-in rack is

fully initialized (the Status indicator displays OK).

2 Click the Plug-In selector in any rack slot and choose Remove

Unavailable Plug-Ins

. This menu item is only available when

one or more unavailable plug-ins are present in the rack.

3 Click Remove to confirm the operation, or click Cancel.

If you proceed with the removal:

• All unavailable plug-ins are removed from the plug-ins

rack.

• The italicized entries for unavailable plug-ins are removed

from all plug-in menu lists.

• All references to unavailable plug-ins are removed from the

Insert Processing section of all affected channels, and the

insert point plug-in is set to

None.

• All references to unavailable plug-ins are removed from all

snapshots.

The new, updated list of available plug-ins is subsequently saved

to the Show file.

History File and Removing Plug-ins

A History file is written immediately before removing unavail-

able plug-ins from the rack, in order to provide a means of undo-

ing the operation.

For more information on using iLoks, refer to the iLok Usage

Guide on the Standalone Software CD or at the Avid website

(www.avid.com).
