Chapter 5 – Selecting Screens
Screen Controls
You have a choice of using the onboard LCD or a
connected VGA display as your main screen.
Main Display Key
The
MAIN DISPLAY
key selects between the SX-1’s
onboard LCD screen or an external VGA monitor as
your main display. The LCD always follows the
selection keys in the
MAIN DISPLAY MODES
sec-
tion.
To have an external VGA follow these keys, press
MAIN DISPLAY
and make the associated
<EXTERNAL>
LED light. The LED indicator set-
tings are as follows:
<INTERNAL>
When the
<INTERNAL>
LED is illu-
minated, the screens recalled by the keys in the
MAIN
DISPLAY MODES
section appear on the LCD . If an
VGA screen is connected, its display will not follow
the
MAIN DISPLAY MODE
keys.
<EXTERNAL>
When the
<EXTERNAL>
LED is on,
the screens recalled by the
MAIN DISPLAY MODES
keys appear on both the LCD and the external VGA
display at the same time.
TIP
VGA screens can also be changed, independently of the
LCD, by pressing ALT and a number key on a connected
PS/2 keyboard.
This option is available regardless of the
MAIN
DISPLAY
key’s setting.
The LCD also has its own set of dedicated controls in the
LCD ACCESS
section.
Main Display Mode Section
The controls in this section recall different screens.
These screens appear on both the LCD and a con-
nected VGA display (when the
MAIN DISPLAY
key
is set to
EXTERNAL
).
TRACK
The
TRACK
key recalls the
TRACK
screen,
where tracks are created and edited.
MIXER
The
MIXER
key recalls the
MIXER
screen,
which shows a full console view on the VGA, along
with a channel-at-once view on the LCD.
CHANNEL
The
CHANNEL
key recalls the
MIXER
CHANNEL
screen, which shows all of the parameters
for a selected channel.
