Fader Page Indicator
The Fader Page indicator shown in the bottom left corner of the Internal Display shows which Fader Page you are on.
If no page name has been set it will be represented in the form of Current Page / Page Count or if a page name has
been set it will show the page name.
Command Line Interface
Whenever you enter commands on the console's front panel they are written into the Command Line Interface, which
will also check if the command entered is a valid command
If the command is invalid (or incomplete), the Command Line Interface will display a warning sign as shown in

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
Commands interacting with a visual object (such as a Pool Item or a Faders Pause/Back Button) will be executed
automatically once they are syntactically correct. However, commands that do not interact with visual elements need
to be executed by pressing the [ENTER] key.
