Using the Function Buttons

 

 

 

 

The LCD is divided up into three viewing windows. 

  The centre window is the main display screen and will show relevant data. The patch, 

passwords, presets etc. are all configured here. 

  The left and right windows are the soft menu portions of the screen.  

 

The upper left menu “NEXT-->“ corresponds to button 1. Pressing button 1 will perform the 
function indicated by the menu. Similarly buttons 2, 3 and 4 correspond to the lower left 
(SET_UP), upper right (PATCH) and lower right (<--NEXT) menus respectively. As this is a 
soft menu system, the menus will change as their required function changes. 

 

As a further visual aid, if there is a menu option associated with a button, then the LED in the 
switch will glow. If no menu option is available then the LED will not glow.

DMXchange 

is fully user configurable. The recommended set-up configuration is as
