Using the RECEPTOR VIP Graphical User Interface

The RECEPTOR VIP graphical User Interface (gUI), lets you see what is happening inside your

RECEPTOR VIP, as well as letting you use a keyboard and mouse to make edit the factory presets or

make new ones. To view the RECEPTOR VIP gUI, simply connect a standard computer VgA monitor

to the VgA output on the rear of the unit, and a USB mouse and USB QWERTY keyboard to the USB

Port. You can also see this interface by connecting your RECEPTOR VIP using Ethernet to your Mac

or PC, installing the included "Receptor Tools" application, and then using the supplied "crossover"

network cable to connect your RECEPTOR VIP to your computer. For more information on how this

is done, please view one of our tutorials on our website, you'll be glad you did.

. The graphical User Interface will appear on your screen like this:

Exploring the GUI: The PRESET Menu Tab

In the top left-hand corner, you'll see the PRESET Tab. Here you can create a new empty preset, or

save an existing preset that you've edited, or use SAVE AS to save your changes as a new preset.

You can also rename, or delete an existing preset using the menu items in this tab.

Exploring the GUI: The TAG Tab

Next to the Preset Tab menu is the TAg Tab, which lets you Add a new TAg, Remove an existing

Tag, or Rename a Tag as something different Note that to Add a new Tag to your preset, simply

select an existing Tag from the drop down menu, or type the name of a new Tag and click OK. This

menu is also how you enter into LIVE MODE (see chapter on LIVE mode for more information)

On the left hand side of the screen you'll see a column with the heading Tags/Presets. These are

your RECEPTOR VIP, except here you can see ALL the Tags and Presets at once!
