• Description:
Enter a description of the project here (8190 characters maximum). Any
alphanumeric character (including punctuation) can be used. Each new

Job Name

.
• Lighting System:
Click the down-arrow to open a drop-down list of lighting systems
supported by DXP-PRO. Select the lighting system you are using, or select
No Lighting Control
(at the top of the list) if your project does not include
any lighting control.
Additional fields may be displayed depending upon the device configura-
tion requirements of the selected lighting system. For example, the
LiteTouch 5000LC displays a combo box to select the baud rate for com-
munications with the LiteTouch controller. However, the AMX Radia sys-
tem does not have a Baud Rate combo box because it communicates via
AXlink.
In addition to selecting the lighting system, DXP-PRO will automatically
select the default baud rate if applicable. You can manually set the baud
rate for non-standard systems.
