Expression/Insight LPC User Interface
The Expression/Insight LPC is a rack-mountable unit containing the control electronics for
the Emphasis Facepanel. It has an LCD touchscreen that provides limited programming
capability. You can also use a Remote Focus Unit to input commands to an LPC unit.
The Cue Playback and Macro Playback displays have a pair of arrow keys in the upper-
right corner that can be used to move from screen to screen. The Edit display has a single
up-arrow key in the lower-right corner that will return you to the Macro screen.
The Cue Playback Display
The Cue Playback display includes a numeric keypad for selecting cue numbers and [Go] ,
[Hold] , [Back] and [Clear] keys for the A/B and C/D fader pairs. The current and pending
cue numbers and their type and timing appear in the upper-left corner of the display. Use
the controls to playback cues as described in Fader Controls, page 144 .
N o t e :
Use the Fader Status area of the Playback display to view the contents of the fader pairs.
The Macro Playback Display
The Macro Playback display includes 24 keys dedicated to Macros 1-24 and a numeric
keypad for use with the [M*] key. See Macros, page 155 for information on macros.
The Edit Display
The LPC is designed to be a show playback device, rather than a programming tool. In
some cases you may need to edit show data, or create a show using the LPC as you would
a full Facepanel. To facilitate this, you can use a Remote Focus Unit for keypad entry, or
you can use the Edit display.
The Edit display includes all display keys, a subset of the Macro editing keys, all Softkeys
and navigation keys, and the entire numeric keypad and editing keys (except [Focus
Point] ).
The keys in the Edit display are rather small. To avoid pressing the wrong key, or multiple
keys, use a pencil eraser or a PDA stylus to enter data. Do not use sharp objects to press
keys on the touchscreen.
N o t e :
If you intend to do a lot of programming from the Edit display, create a macro for the
[Focus Point] command, if required.
