Setup
3. Dead Black Out (DBO)
The Dead Black out has multiple functions. Whenever it is enabled, it is like pulling the Grandmaster slider down to
0% in zero time. There are macros that allow you to control this feature programmatically.
• Disabled - Select this option if you don't want to accidentally plunge your stage into darkness by pressing the DBO
button.
• Momentary - If you select this option, pressing the button will black out the stage only while you have your finger
on the button. Use this if you want to 'bump' the stage out for effect.
• Toggle - If the DBO is set as a toggle, pressing it once will black the stage out and pressing it again will restore it.
While the DBO is on, the red LED will flash rapidly.
Note: The red LED on the [DBO] button will flash slowly if the level of the handle is between 1% and 99%.
4. Console Setup
QWERTY Keyboard Cue List Control
By default, the QWERTY keyboard will control the displayed Cue List. For example, the [Spacebar] executes a Go;
the [Z] key executes a Pause or Halt; and the Slash [\] will Release the Cue List. (For the full QWERTY mappings,
refer to
"Processor Keyboard Shortcuts" on page 31 ).
If you uncheck this option, any method of controlling the cue list from the keyboard will be disabled (including
pressing [EDIT] in the first column of the Cue List). To run cues, you either need to press the dedicated buttons on the
console or use the Cue List Toolbar buttons using the Windows UI console personality with the mouse.
