Display Control and Navigation
Opening and Closing Displays
Displays can be opened and closed in different ways, depending on the display. Many displays are
accessible from the browser, while other displays are accessible from the LCD softkeys. The blind
displays of record targets (also called “lists”) can be quickly accessed by double pressing the record
target button (for example, [Preset] [Preset] opens the preset list).
From the browser
Open and navigate the browser as described in Using the Browser, page 29. When you open a new
display (such as the cue list index, group list, or patch), it will open on the primary display. If the
display does not open to a monitor (such as setup or the browser) it will open in the CIA.
Again, any time you wish to return to the browser, simply press [Displays].
From the hardkeys
You can open list views of any record target by double-pressing the key for the desired record
target.
From the LCD softkeys
To open any displays accessible from the softkeys, press [Displays]. The softkeys will repaint to
display:
• Effect Status
• Color Picker
• Patch
• Setup
• Curves
• Browser
Any of these softkeys will open the associated display with a single press.
Closing Displays
To close any display:
• Press the [Displays] key again to open a different display.
• Press [Escape] to close the active display. The screen will return to live or blind.
• Press [Live] or [Blind] to replace the display with the live/blind view.
To close a display in the CIA, press the [Displays] key and the browser will reappear.
