Creating a New Desk Setup

A new Desk Setup is created, or an existing Desk Setup is changed with the Desk Edit utility in
Encore. This is a multi-paged application, that opens with the Config page used to define
quantities of paths. The exact appearance of the screens may vary between software releases.
When Desk Editor is opened, it dispays the Desk Setup that is currently loaded on the console.
To create a new Desk Setup
Select the NEW button at the bottom of the screen.
In the Name box the system will display a default name and the date (e.g. Desk - 22/03 14.33).
The name can be left as is or changed to something more useful, up to 28 characters long.
To create a new version of an existing configuration
There are two ways to achieve this:
1. Before launching Desk Editor, load the existing configuration (on which you want to base
the new configuration) onto the console from the Encore Start page or from the Filing utility.
Edit the Desk Setup using Desk Editor. After changes have been made, use the SAVE AS
button to save the configuration with a different name.
2. (This is the recommended method). Before loading Encore, use the Filing utility to create a
new copy of the configuration with a different name. Load the copy of the configuration on to
the console and use "Load and Save" to save the modified configuration after editing.
To copy a configuration using the Filing utility
Launch the Filing Utility. This can be done using the hot key on the Libra surface.
Alternatively, from Encore's Home page, click on the MORE icon, then on the
HOUSEKEEPING icon and then on the FILING icon.
Select the configuration to be copied from the list of Desk Setups. If the required Desk Setup
is not visible, you may need to use the USER, STUDIO or TECH tabs to select alternative
filing locations, or you may need to set the dialog box above the list to view ALL DESKs
instead of just USER'S DESKS.
