ACTION BUTTONS
The LX600 and LX900 both have 60 Action Buttons arranged in 6 banks of 10 buttons with 4
pages of memory. Each of these banks comprises a 3.2" LCD touch screen with 10 physical
buttons located around its peripheral.
LX600/LX900 Action Buttons
Any Action button can be configured to control either a:
Group
Preset
Freeset
Cuelist
You can put any type of action on any button in any bank, mixing and matching as you please.
You can press either the button or the touch screen to “action” the function.
The buttons are divided into 6 banks to assist you in organizing your shows. For example, one
bank might be used for selecting groups, another to select positions, another for colours,
another for effects or freesets etc.
Hint: When a cuelist containing a single cue is assigned to an Action button, setting the
“
Action button toggle
”
user preference allows you to play and release the cuelist using
the same button. The first press plays the cue. Pressing the button again while the cue
is active will release it.

Action Button Pages

Having a dedicated button for each page means that any of the 240 actions is no more than
two button pushes away.
