The LCD display, together with the

setup, editing and running the show.
The size of the main LCD is 4 x 20
characters.
Most of the LCD screens consist of a
title, editable fields and soft buttons.
Some LCD screens contain error
messages, warnings, instructions or
information.
Editable Fields
On the LCD display, editable fields are
indicated by angled brackets (<…>).
The value of a field can only be edited,
using the + and - keys, when it is
highlighted (ie. the angled brackets are
displayed as flashing).
In this manual, the highlighted field on
the LCD is shown in
bold text .
The up and down arrow keys are used
to move through the editable fields,
options and soft buttons on the LCD.
It is possible to move from the last item
on the LCD screen to the first and vice
versa using the up and down arrow
keys.
Example - Memories screen:
Current: 1 s
Next:
< 2 s>
Fade Up: <00:03.0>
Fade Down:<00:03.0>v
The Current field is not editable. The
Next, Fade Up and Fade Down fields
are editable.
The Next field is highlighted (flashing),
so the + and - keys will adjust the next
memory number.
Pressing the down arrow key will move
the cursor to the
Fade Up field.
Editing Fade Times
Fade times are displayed on the LCD
in minutes, seconds and tenths
(mm:ss.t).
Each field within the fade time is
editable using the + and - keys, or
using an external keyboard, if fitted.
The minutes and seconds fields
rollover automatically when adjusting
the seconds and tenths.
The up and down arrow keys move the
flashing cursor between the fields.
For example, the flashing cursor is on
the minutes field of the
