202 PRO X User Manual
Chapter 32: GUI Menu
The GUI is a very powerful multi-functional tool that forms the core of the
PRO X Control Centre. It gives you total control and monitoring of the operating
environment, enhances control surface operation (you can even operate the
PRO Series by GUI-only) and allows the use of internal and external devices.
To facilitate this the GUI incorporates a simple-to-use GUI menu.
The GUI menu presents you with a list of options from which to choose,
depending on your requirement. The following lists some of the functions that
the GUI menu provides:
• Conguration Congure the routing, associations and the names and
colours of channels, groups, graphic EQs and internal eects, set up for
multi-console operation, set up the connected devices etc.
• Navigation Select the channels, buses and groups you want, go quickly to a
GUI screen display, go to recently opened screens, move through the scenes
in a show and go to the patching screens you want.
• Management Manage show les (internal and external), automation and
the monitoring system.
• User and operating preferences Adjust GUI screen brightness and
contrast, select delay compensation, select fader ip etc.
• Information View current software information.
• Overcoming a faulty GUI screen Should a GUI screen fail, you can re-map
it to a dierent bay.
• Security Lock the screens to prevent unauthorised access.
• Shutdown sequence Shut down the control centre properly.
• Upgrading the software Install the very latest version (or any previous
version) of PRO X software.
For details of how to use the GUI menu, see “Using the GUI menu” in chapter 6.
