Executors without faders
- There are two rows of extra executors above the ones with faders. They are
independent of each other. They are only executor GO keys -
. The functionality don't have to be Go. They
are also numbered from the Main executor and to the left. The top row begins with number 101 and the next
row begin with 201. If you press and hold the
key then you can see the numbers at the bottom of the
screen above them (number 11 - Screen 2). Moving forward I'll just use the executor numbers.
6.
Page keys
- Pressing these keys you can change the page numbers for your executors. This allows you to
organize your show onto different pages. Active executors are always visible and will stay "on top" when you
change page. We'll have a look at this later. You can't change the page for the Main executor.
7.
Grand Master
- The grand master fader allows you to pull down the intensity of your output. The
B.O.
key
will take the output to zero as long as it's pressed. If it flashes then, your grand Master fader isn't at 100%.
8.
Level wheel
- You can change the intensity of your selected fixtures using this level wheel.
9.
Menu keys
- These three keys gives you access to the three main menu sections of the console. A lot more
about this in the next chapters.
10.
Screen 1
- This screen changes content dynamically with your work. At the bottom of the screen you can
always see the function and values of the encoders below. There will also be a command line input. On the
right side of the screen you'll be able to select different functions for the fixtures (when we add some).
11.
Screen 2
- This screen allows you to view and select different things and functions. We'll talk a lot more
about this one.
If you have a dot2 XL-F or dot2 XL-B, you have some more executors and you have another screen (screen 3) on the
left side. Please press the
key to see the executors numbers.
Ok that's what it looks like. Let's start doing something - Next chapter please.
3.3. Getting Started Guide - Create a new empty show and saving it
Create new show
We should begin with a new clean show. Just to make sure we begin at the same point, please turn on the console
(if it's not already on).
When it's done booting, you should press the
Backup
key. This gives you the Backup menu:
