Palette II Lighting Control Console
Installation & Setup Guide
6. PaletteOS Control Panel
The PaletteOS software runs on a custom processor under the Windows® Vista operating system (OS). An OS
system means that only the software necessary to run the console is installed and no unauthorized software can be
installed by the user. There are no user-configurable applications that are included in the OS. This protects the system
and the operating software parameters, assuring that system integrity is never compromised.
Since the Windows Vista OS is used, other features are available, such as a web browser, media player and file
manager. The Palette II console can also be connected to a network to take advantage of services like DHCP
networking, mapped network drives, Internet connectivity, and more.
The Control Panel appears as soon as you exit the PaletteOS.
To access these special features, use the Control Panel (shown above) to launch applications, system configuration
and maintenance tools, and to view system information. The [S4] System softkey will access many features in the
control panel.
Note: You may have to press [Backspace] to access the main software menu. This will deselect, but not release any
captured channels.
