About [About]

Pressing [About] puts the console in “about” mode, which allows you to examine “about”
information indefinitely, simply by selecting the element you are interested in.

When in about mode, selecting a channel will reveal information about that channel. Below are
examples of the “Current Values” view (see below) of information that is presented when selecting
conventional or moving lights.

The buttons on the right side of the about screen alter the information that is displayed for the
selected channel. The selected button is highlighted in gray. The buttons are:

{Current Values} - this shows any current information that the channel is receiving and

following.

{Background Values} - this displays any information that is being sent to the channel, but not

adhered to since another source has ownership of the channel.

{Patch} - this displays patch information about the channel.

{Advanced Control} - this displays any parameters associated with the channel. If the

channel is a conventional (intensity-only) fixture, no parameters will be displayed. If it is a
moving light, this key will access lamp controls.
