4.19 PATPAD
The PatPad consists of a touch screen with an 
overlay that divides the touch screen into separate 
areas. The small areas are virtual buttons and the 
long areas are displayer scroll bars. 
The touch screen can be operated with either your 
finger or a stylus such as those available for hand 
held computing devices. The scrolling bar areas 
act like control wheels and can be either moused 
(scrolled) or they can be tapped. 
The PaTPaD is used to control the
parameters of moving fixtures and to “store” their 
parameter settings into the memory of the 
playbacks. The PaTPaD is also used to access 
“groups”, “palettes”, “presets”, “filters”, “effects”, 
“fans” and fixture patching. The PaTPaD is 
extensively described in the “BASIC FIXTURE 
PROGRAMMING” and “ADVANCED FIXTRE 
PROGRAMMING” sections.
