Just before clearing the palettes, the desk will first search all memories and
submasters for references to those palettes. If any references are found, then they
will be removed and replaced with the value from the palette before the palette is
cleared. Once cleared, the link between memories / submasters and palettes on
which they were built is permanently broken.
Resetting the Desk
If you wish to clear
ALL
memories, submasters, palettes, the fixture assignment and
DMX patch, and all Setup options; use the cursor buttons to select <Reset Desk>.
Press ENTER. The desk will ask you to confirm the action – use the cursor buttons
to select <OK>, and press ENTER. The desk will be returned to factory defaults, and
you will be returned to the main Setup menu.
Updating the Fixture Library
The JesterML has a comprehensive built-in library of over 1700 different fixture types
from 125 manufacturers. This library is regularly added to and updates are available
from the Zero 88 website. To see which version of the library is installed on the desk,
select <Update Fixture Lib> and press ENTER. The version number of the library will
be displayed on the Main LCD. If no library is installed (this may happen if a previous
update failed for some reason), then V--.-- will be displayed.
If you wish to update the library with a newer version from the Zero 88 website, then
download the file and unzip it to the root directory on a USB Memory Stick. The USB
Memory Stick must contain the
.IFT
file – the JesterML is not able to unzip a
.ZIP
file
itself, nor navigate subdirectories. Plug the USB Memory Stick into the desk, then
use the cursor buttons to select <Update Library> and press ENTER. Now choose
the correct
.IFT
file using the up and down cursor buttons. With <OK> selected,
press ENTER, and the new version of the fixture library will be installed on the desk.
Once complete, press ENTER, and you will be returned to the previous menu and
the new library version will be displayed.
The JesterML also stores User Fixture Type files internally when they are used from
the <Assign Fixtures> menu. This allows them to be easily used again in the future.
To remove any unwanted files that are stored on the desk, select the <Delete User
Files> option under <Update Fixture Lib> and press ENTER. If there are any User
Fixture Type Files on the desk, these can be browsed using the up & down cursor
buttons. Select <OK> and press ENTER to delete the selected file from the desk.
You will be returned to the previous menu.
To leave the <Update Fixture Lib> menu and return to Setup, select <OK> and press
ENTER.
Setting Memory Recovery Mode
Recovery mode determines whether the JesterML stores the current & next
memories when restarted. If Recovery Mode is On - the desk remembers which of
the memories was current, and which was next, and on restart these memories will
automatically be selected. If Recovery Mode is Off - the desk will start in the first
programmed memory, and the next memory will be selected as the second
programmed memory.
