The 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 programming
memories, submasters and palettes. This is particularly important in Tracking-
Advanced mode, to determine what will be programmed.
To display the Program Window, if it is not already active, press the PGM WIN
key.
As dimmer levels are changed or fixtures selected and their parameters
adjusted, the corresponding information is shown in the Program Window, for
example:

Dimmer Section
The Dimmer section of the Program Window is displayed as a table „docked‟
at the top of the Program Window and shows the channel number, it‟s output
value and tag status. The colour coding for this section is as follows:
The Dimmer Numbers are always displayed and are black text on yellow
background when selected and cyan text on a black background when not
selected.
The Dimmer Values are displayed in red text if tagged, white text if untagged,
and not displayed at all if they are not in the Program Window.
Fixtures Section
The Fixtures section of the Program Window is displayed below the Dimmer
section. The fixtures and their parameter values are shown as a table. The
currently selected fixtures are highlighted in yellow. Fixture parameters which
are tagged have a light blue background.
