Note

Suite Prefs files should be saved as profiles for fast access, by saving them
to the Frame:C:\User\profiles\suite or Zip Drive:\profiles\suite default directo-
ries. The names of the files appear in the scrolling list in the Profiles menu,
so naming them for easy recognition is important.

7.

On a Menu panel of Suite 2 (either work on the actual panel, or Login
as the EIC to access that suite), go to the Acquire menu, set the desired
resources, and touch

Acquire Desired

to acquire those resources. Then

scroll through the list to ensure all the desired devices have been
acquired. If there are any resource conflicts, you can dynamically share
a resource between the suites by acquiring it when needed and
releasing it when done.

8.

Make any necessary adjustments to the Suite Prefs for Suite 2.

9.

Save this Suite Pref to disk, naming the file so you can identify it is for
the defaults for Suite 2.

Suite Prefs files should be saved as profiles for fast access, by saving them
to the Frame:C:\User\profiles\suite or Zip Drive:\profiles\suite default directo-
ries. The names of the files appear in the scrolling list in the Profiles menu,
so naming them for easy recognition is important.

Later, when you build the Suite Preference for a particular show, you can
add or remove desired resources to meet your individual requirements and
save that Suite Pref named with the show title and suite name.

Configure User Prefs for Use In A Control Surface

Up to two control surfaces can be defined for each suite. Each control
surface operates with its own User Prefs. The same User Prefs file can be
loaded onto any control surface, or different configurations can be defined
and saved for each control surface. Which approach is used depends on
your facility requirements and the individual operator’s working style.

1.

On a Menu panel of a control surface of Suite 1, go the various User
Prefs menus (accessed via

Daily Setups

,

User Prefs

) and set them as

desired. In particular, you may want to set different button mappings
on the Main panel and Local Aux panel buses for that control surface.

2.

Save this User Pref to disk, naming the file so you can identify it is was
defined for that suite and control surface.

Note

User Prefs files can be saved as profiles for rapid access, by saving them to
the Frame:C:\User\profiles\user or Zip Drive:\profiles\user default directories.
The names of the files appear in the scrolling list in the Profiles menu, so
naming them for easy recognition is important.
