OK and Cancel
If there is a dialog window open on the Pro Tools DAW, the OK and Cancel switches on the Fader Modules flash. When the dialog
is on the currently focused workstation they flash green; when on a workstation that is not focused, the switches flash orange. Press
OK to confirm or Cancel to cancel the dialog.
