Program Window
The Program Window is central to the programming functionality on the
Solution & Solution XL desk. It is recommended (but not mandatory) that the
Program Window is displayed on the monitor screen when setting up
memories, submasters or palettes.
To display the Program Window on the monitor press the PGM WIN key. As
you adjust dimmer levels, select fixtures and adjust their parameters with the
control wheels, or by other methods, the corresponding information is shown
in the Program Window.
The dimmer and fixture parameter data displayed in the Program Window can
then be recorded to memories, submasters or palettes as required.
The top part of the Program Window shows the dimmer channels. Tagged
dimmer channels are shown in red text, untagged dimmer channels in white
text.
The currently selected fixtures are highlighted in yellow. Fixture parameters
which are tagged have a light blue background, those that are untagged have
a dark background.
