From the {Clear Targets} screen you can select which record targets you wish to clear. The buttons at
the center of the CIA represent all of the record targets that you can choose to clear. By default all
components are selected (gray) and will be cleared. To withhold any targets from being cleared,
simply deselect them in the CIA by clicking the respective button. To deselect all of the targets, click
the {Deselect All} button.
To reselect all targets, click the {Select All} button and all buttons will return to gray (selected). To
stop the process, click the {Cancel} button.
When you have selected or deselected all of the record targets you require, click {OK}.
After clearing, the CIA will return to the browser. If you want to perform additional clear functions,
you must select {Clear} from the browser again.
To exit the clear functions screen without clearing, press the [Displays] key at any time or select a
clear button and then select {Cancel} from the confirmation screen.
Reset System vs Clear Show
Using {Reset System} will open a new show file and reset the Setup options to their defaults. Using
{Clear Show} will only open a new show file.
Patch 1 to 1 vs Clear Patch
Using {Patch 1 to 1} will clear your patch and set it to a 1-to-1 patch. Using {Clear Patch} will only
clear out the patch.
Locking the Facepanel
It is possible to lock out the facepanel, which prevents any actions from the command line or CIA. To
lock out the facepanel, press [Shift] & [Escape]. To unlock the facepanel, press [Shift] & [Escape]
again.
Note:
This will also lock any wings or USB connected peripherals.

Softkeys

Some of the features and displays in Ion are accessible from the softkeys, which are located under
the Browser. Softkeys are indicated in documentation with bold {braces}.
The softkeys are context sensitive, therefore they repaint to display softkeys relevant to the display
or command you are working with. The white labels on the bottom row indicate the active softkeys.
The gray labels in the top row indicate the second page of available softkeys, available by pressing
the [More SK] button.
Those softkeys correspond to buttons [S1] - [S6] and [More SK] on the facepanel.
Changing Softkey Pages
When there are more relative softkeys than the six available buttons, both gray and white softkey
labels will be visible. The white labels on the bottom row of the label window indicate the active
softkeys. The gray labels in the top row indicate the second page of softkeys.
