Using an optional pointing device
Expression and Insight 3 and ECS facepanels have a dedicated port to which a serial
pointing device such as a mouse, trackball or trackpad can be connected. The device must
be Microsoft-compatible. This pointing device is used specifically for controlling pan and tilt
of moving light fixtures and cannot be used to access screens on the Emphasis Server.
Installation
Switch off the power to the facepanel. Connect the pointing device to the RS 232 Mouse
connector at the left side of the facepanel rear panel (see Emphasis Facepanel Rear Panel
Connections, page 268 ).
Device check
The pointing device should be ready for use when the system has completed boot-up.
Verify normal operation by patching fixtures as explained in the Emphasis Visualization
User Manual . Movement of the pointing device should control pan and tilt levels; its buttons
should reselect fixtures in the Fixture Box window.
If the device doesn’t function as described above:
Step 1: Verify that the pointing device is Microsoft compatible.
Step 2: Verify that the pointing device works normally in another system, such as with a
computer.
Step 3: If you still have a problem after making the verifications, see Help from ETC
Technical Services, page 3 .
