Mem Left (kb)
Tells you how much free memory is left in the console.
Full Cues Left
This will give you an idea of how many full cues can be stored in
the remaining free memory. Note: a full cue is a cue with all
channels programmed – much larger than a typical cue – so the full
cue number will always understate the number of cues left.
AutoExec Macro
This is a “comment macro” style sequence of commands. This will
be executed after warm starts and show loads. Note: The autoexec
macro should NOT have a ‘
>
’ character at the start.

parameters at half the normal rate. At 200% the mouse changes

Controlling the LCD Backlighting
To set the brightness of the LCD screens, go to the Control Panel window (press

then
panel
), and
move the cursor to Menu Lvl (to adjust the menu palette LCD brightness) or Main Lvl (to adjust the main
LCD brightness). Enter the brightness level (0 to 3) or rotate the left parameter wheel to change the value.
Unfortunately, the backlighting on the LCDs will not last forever and will die out after a certain amount of
use. If the LCD screen is dark, and setting the contrast and brightness makes no difference, the backlighting
has expired and needs to be replaced. Contact your local dealer.
To make the backlighting last as long as possible, you can set them to turn off when the console is on but
hasn’t been used for some time. This is done by setting the “
Stay on
” time. This is like the screen saver
on a PC.
Stay on:
Set the time after which the backlighting turns off if the console hasn’t

add an

press if you don’t want anything else to happen.
