Section 2
Getting Started
This section covers basic mouse and Graphical User Interface
(GUI) operations, and provides step-by-step instructions for
performing everyday tasks. If you have the Control Panel option,
see Section 6 – Control Panel for a discussion of its operation.
This section assumes that your Diskus system is installed,
configured, and timed properly. See the installation information
in the Technical section for details on installing and powering up
Diskus.
GUI Overview
Diskus introduces a new method of control for Abekas disk
recorders, the GUI.
You can use the GUI on the serial digital output, the analog
outputs, or both at the same time. As shipped from the factory,
the GUI appears on the analog outputs.
There is a menu item you can select to automatically clear the GUI
from the outputs when you put Diskus into record or play mode.
This prevents recording the GUI if the main output is the same as
the GUI output.
The GUI consists of windows superimposed on the video output.
You use a mouse to move a cursor around the screen, and select
GUI elements with the mouse buttons. The mouse cursor has two
shapes; each is responsible for different control functions.
