500ML Lighting Control Console
QuickStart Guide
Figure 4: Programmer Window
Opening Screens and Dialogs
The 500ML console provides easy and logical ways to open the context sensitive screens. As an example, pressing
[SETUP] will show the Setup Screen, which is used for general configuration of the console, such as adding Fixtures
to the Show or setting the IP Address of the Network Interface.
All of the Pool Windows containing Fixtures, Groups, Presets or Cuelists as well as the Fader Page Directory may be
opened by issuing a long press on the [Open] key, followed by the key of the Pool Window you would like to open:
• [OPEN] + [FIXTURE] will open the Fixture Pool Window
• [OPEN] + [GROUP] will open the Group Pool Window
• [OPEN] + [PRESET] will open the All Preset Pool Window
• [OPEN] + [I] will open the All Preset Pool Window
• [OPEN] + [F] will open the "Intensity" Preset Pool Window
• [OPEN] + [C] will open the Color Preset Pool Window
• [OPEN] + [B] will open the Beam Preset Pool Window
• [OPEN] + [CUELIST] will open the Cuelist Pool Window
• [OPEN] + [PAGE] will open the Fader Page Directory Window
Pressing the [OPEN] key provides you with the Open Toolbar, which may also used to open the different Pool
Windows. Additionally the Open Toolbar may be used to open the Output Window, indicating the currently output
values.

In addition to that, the Command keys found on the Keypad like [RECORD], [LOAD], [EDIT], [DELETE], [COPY],
[MOVE], [OFF] and [ASSIGN] will, in a similar fashion to the [OPEN] button open up Pool Windows as well if they
are pressed while striking any of the Object keys, whilst keeping the initial command in the command line. This is
very useful to quickly navigate around the console during programming. As an example: Holding [RECORD] while
pressing the [GROUP] button opens up the Group Pool and keeps the Record Keyword in the command line,
allowing to directly record the Group.
Command Line Syntax
In general the Command Line Syntax needs to be entered in "Action - Source - Target" form. When no Action is
specified, the source Item will be selected. See
Table 1, "Command Line Syntax," on page 10
for more information.
