14.11 The Graphics Tablet Screen
The Graphics Tablet Screen is displayed on Screen 13.
Half of the Screen displays the Attributes of the Selected Fixture alongside
the Graphic Tablet Attribute Select button used to access each Attribute.
The other half displays the contents of a selected Table when accessed. See
Section 9.2.13 Screen 13 - GRAPHICS TABLET INFORMATION.
14.12 Tables
A Table is a palette of pre-programmed colours or gobos preset onto the
spare Attribute Select buttons not used by the Preset Banks.
ie. buttons 13 - 15 and 28 - 30.
The Tables are stored in the Personality File of a Fixture, and are only
editable by editing the Personality File. Not all Fixtures have Tables.
Some Tables contain useful presets like the colour values for matching your
Fixture to a particular colour of Gel.
To access a table,
• Select your Fixtures.
• Click on one of the Table Attribute Select buttons listed above.
If it has a Table stored on it, the Display will automatically switch to
Screen 13 (the Graphics Tablet Screen) and a list of Table values will be
displayed on the normally empty half of the Screen.
• Do not remove the stylus, but slide it to move the arrow up and down the
Table.
• When you remove the stylus, the Table value that the arrow pointed to is
output to the selected Fixtures.
14.13 Future functions of the Graphics Tablet
14.13.1 Set Stage Height
This function will not be available until a later software release.
• When available clicking on this button, followed by clicking on a position
on the Fader will allow the tracking stage height to be set.
• Until this feature is available, if you wish to track Fixtures at head height
they should be trained at this height, by for instance using a mic stand to
train them.

These buttons are for future development.
