Touch the YES button to open the presets operation screen.
PRESET PAGE
The preset operations screen is opened by default when the pendant boots up and the operator touches the
Accept? YES button on the bootup screen. The preset operations page may also be opened by touching the
PRST PAGE function key (F3) on the pendant.
The preset page opens to a list of the first eight presets and cues from the currently loaded show. To load a
preset or cue, the operator touches the preset or cue name in the list at the left of the screen. The active cue
name will be highlighted in yellow, and the appropriate indicators will appear in the upper right of the screen,
showing the sequencing status of the cue. If, for example, the loaded preset or cue is set up so the next cue
will load automatically when the current one completes, the Auto Load indicator will appear. If the loaded cue
or preset is set up so that the subsequent cue will automatically follow 10 seconds after the current cue starts,
the Auto Follow, 10 sec, and After Start indicators will appear.
There are two indicators that will appear at the lower right of the screen if they are needed. ESTOP FAULT
indicates that a system Emergency Stop button has been pushed. MOTOR FLT indicates that a system
motor is in a fault condition. Use the main console screen to obtain details about which motor is in a fault
condition.
When a preset or cue has been loaded, the GO TRGT button (F8) is pushed and held to execute the move.
(Note that the GO UP (F2) and GO DOWN (F4) buttons are not active while on this page.) Remember to
Watch the Piece while the move is going on!
There may be more than eight presets
in the current show. Pressing the
NEXT function key (F12) will advance
from the current page of eight to the
next full page of eight presets and
cues. Pressing the INC (increment)
function key (F11) will advance the
entire list by one entry. Similarly,
pressing the PREV (previous) function
key (F9) will display the preceding
page of eight presets and cues, and
pressing the DEC (decrement) function
key (F10) will back the list up by one
entry.
If a preset or cue has been selected,
but the operator does not wish to
execute that move, the CLEAR SLCT
function key (F7) is used to de-select that choice. If a preset or cue has been selected, this selection will also
be cleared if the operator advances the list to the point where that preset or cue is no longer displayed on the
screen, or if the operator switches to another page.
MANUAL PAGE
The MANL PAGE function key (F1) is used to switch to the Manual page for operation. This page is used to
run an individual set in deadman operation.
This page opens to a list of the first eight sets that are active in the current show. The operator may select
one of the sets for operation by touching the set name. The selected set name will be highlighted in yellow.
