High End Systems HandShake Quick Start Manual

Overview
The High End Systems® HandShake™ controller for Palm OS® hand-helds provides show creation and playback along with
DMX diagnostics and remote communication to fixtures supporting TalkBack™ protocol.
The HandShake™ controller utilizes the Palm™ handheld as its user interface. The HandShake application will run on Palm OS
versions 3.3 and later. The HandShake module is meant to connect directly to the Palm™ III series and Palm™ VII series of Palm
handheld computer family. Form elements such as pick lists, scrollbars, menus, and direction arrows follow the Palm desktop
conventions.
The HandShake controller implements the Flying Pig Systems™ fixture library as a series of Palm OS databases, one database
for each of 39 supported manufacturers.
