12 Introduction
LP-X24 and LP-X48 Users Manual
A show file can and should be copied to floppy for backup and for portability between
boards. The LP-X saves one show per floppy disk.
Display Modes
The LP-X runs in two display modes—LCD Mode and Video Mode. In LCD Mode, there
is minimal output to the monitor. In Video Mode, there is minimal output to the LCD.
The console starts up in LCD mode.
To use the video feature of the LP-X you will need:
•
A VGA compatible monitor running at 1024X768 resolution
•
A keyboard with a PC compatible PS-2 connection
•
A Microsoft compatible mouse with a PS-2 connection
Connect the keyboard, mouse and monitor to the LP-X before turning on the console.
Touch Panel Monitor
Additionally, the LP-X series consoles are compatible with the ELO 1525 touch panel
monitor.
Operating the console with a touch panel monitor provides an additional way in which to
interact with the system. For example, to press a button you would normally point with a
mouse pointer and then click the left mouse button. With a touch panel monitor, you
literally press the button display on the monitor with your finger to activate it.
Every touch panel monitor responds a bit differently and, as a result, requires a few
minutes to adapt. The ELO 1525 monitor does not sense pressure or heat, so there is no
reason to press hard or to hold your finger in place. Simply press and let go—if the
monitor doesn't perceive the press, try it again. Within a few minutes, you will find the
right touch.
Switching Between Display Modes
To switch to Video Mode:
(1) Click or press the Switch to Video Mode button that appears on the video monitor.
The output to the LCD is minimized and the full video display appears on the monitor.
The image below is a sample LP-X Video Setup Mode screen. The screen that you see
will vary depending upon whether you were in Run, Record or Setup at the time you
switched to Video Mode.
