System Procedures
Power-up Procedure
For best performance, power-up your system in the following order:
Step 1:
Turn on the hub(s) and/or switch(es).
Step 2:
Turn on the Server and monitor(s). Wait for the Emphasis application to start up
completely before proceeding to the next step.
N o t e :
In a network with multiple Emphasis Control Systems online, allow one Emphasis Server
to fully startup before starting the other Emphasis Servers. This will ensure that your
network configures correctly.
Step 3:
Turn on the Facepanel(s) and monitor(s).
Step 4:
Turn on any ETCNet2 Nodes.
Step 5:
Turn on accessories such as Remote Focus Units.
N o t e :
When you power-up your Emphasis Control System, the system will default to opening
the last valid show file. If the show file is no longer available in the Shows directory,
Emphasis will open a new show called “Untitled”. You may setup the system to open a
new show on startup if you wish. See Create a Default Show in the Emphasis
Visualization User Manual for more information.
