Unison Mosaic Designer User Manual
Mac OS X users:
Pressing the File Transfer button in the Network pane will launch an FTP client on Mac OS X. By default, this cli-
ent is Finder, and Finder doesn't allow write access to FTP servers. In order to send files to a Controller from Mac
OS X, you will need to install another FTP client. We recommend Cyberduck
which is free.
When you first run Cyberduck, you should be prompted to make it the default FTP client. You should choose to
do this. If you are not prompted, or Cyberduck is not used as the FTP client when attempting to perform a file
transfer to a Controller, go to the Preferences in Cyberduck and under the FTP tab, there is a 'Default Protocol
Handler' option. Set this to Cyberduck.

Output Live
Check this box (the default) if you want the Controller to participate in Output Live (see

Disabling Output Live
While all the other columns give status feedback, the Output Live cell is editable and allows you to stop a Con-
troller from participating in
. This is useful for soft openings where you may have multiple Controllers
in various geographical zones, some of which are open to the public and so need to be protected from your pro-
gramming and testing efforts in another zone. Uncheck this box to disable.
