Managing the scenes
An automation section in the master bay (see item H in Figure 2 "Main areas of the
control surface" on page 7) supports the Automation screen by providing a number of
controls for scene navigation and management. A jogwheel and a next LCD button are
unique automation controls, while the store, ok, cancel, last and now buttons are
replicated on the Automation screen.
The four coloured, backlit buttons are context-sensitive and illuminate only when they
are available. Typically, three scenes in the cue list (Automation screen) will be
highlighted to match the button colours (red, yellow or green) to show which scene
each button will act upon.
The jogwheel quickly scrolls through the individual scenes in either direction. You can
even go to the empty scenes towards the end of the cue list and then wrap to the
beginning. Operation of the jogwheel does not change scene selection.
The next LCD button displays information on the scene you have just scrolled to.
Additional function buttons on the Automation screen allow you to copy scenes and
also to choose what is stored within each scene (store and recall scope buttons).
The eye icon
opens a Show window, which contains a list of filter options.
>> To navigate the scenes using the jogwheel
Place a finger in the indent in the jogwheel and move it in a
clockwise or anti-clockwise direction, as required (shown right). The
scenes will be scrolled, one by one.
When using the jogwheel the next LCD button will illuminate yellow
and will track the scene currently highlighted in yellow in the cue
list. In this case, pressing this button will only have an affect if a
non-empty scene is currently highlighted.
