Using the Design XPress Project Wizard

Launching the Design XPress Project Wizard

There are three ways to approach launching the DXP Project Wizard:
This invokes the first Project Wizard dialog: System Information, containing a summary of the
system information for this project. If you are starting a new project, the Created By and Company
fields are pre-populated with the information entered in the User Information dialog at startup.
Also, there are several default devices included and ready for you to configure (1 Audio Zone, 1
Audio Source, 1 DMS Keypad and 1 Touch Panel).
When you create a new project, the Wizard dialogs become available as selections in
the Jump To list only after they have been populated with the required data. In this
case of the sample project, all Wizard dialogs are available since the project is
complete.

Project Wizard Navigation Controls

At the bottom of each Wizard dialog is a set of navigation controls:
The results of the Design XPress project are placed in "Projects\Job Name\Rev #", in the
application directory.

Select File > New.
Click the Create New Project command button (in the lower-left corner of the Main
Screen).
Double-click on the sample project ("DXP Sample Project") in the Project Selection List.
At the lower-left corner of this and all Wizard dialogs is a drop-down list titled Jump To.
Click the down-arrow to open a list of all Wizard dialogs, and select any dialog from this
list to jump to that dialog.
Additionally, all of the dialogs in the Project Wizard have a set of Navigation Control
buttons along the bottom of the dialog to allow you move back and forth through the
wizard dialogs, and save or cancel your changes.
As dialogs in the Project Wizard are completed, those dialog names are added to the
Jump To list. Use the Jump To list to go directly to a particular dialog in the Wizard for
editing.
The Cancel button will cancel the current session and return to the Main screen.
You can also go to the previous dialog by selecting the <<Back button. The only time this
button is not active is at the System Information dialog.
Once all the required information is entered you can proceed to the next dialog by
selecting the Next>> button. When no additional dialogs are required this button will be
inactive.
When Design XPress has collected all the information necessary to program the project
the Finish button will be activated. When this button is selected you will be prompted to
save the project.
