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.
