2. Working with Shows

Show files contain all of your show related settings like fixture schedule and patching, input settings, groups, presets,

cues, master assignments, etc. Multiple shows may reside on the console and the amount of shows is only limited by

hard disk memory. However it is advised to regularly backup old shows to a USB key and delete them off the

consoles memory.

When the Welcome screen appears, you are given two options:

• Create a New Show or,

• Load an Existing Show (via a saved showfile*)

Note: *Showfiles contain all of your show related settings like fixture schedule and patching, input settings, groups,

presets, cues, master assignments, etc.

On the console's 8-inch TFT touchscreen display, hit the Create New Show button on the Welcome Screen (refer

Figure

8).

This will open up a virtual keyboard on the console screen, as illustrated in

the show to be created.

You may also enter values by using an external USB keyboard (by others, sold separately) anytime the keyboard

dialog is shown. As soon as you hit the Enter button a show file with a name given is created.
