Quick Start Tutorial
Getting Started
Prior to powering up the desk, it is essential to attach all the peripherals you require. The
desk has support for a PS2 or USB Keyboard and Mouse, two VGA monitors (or touch
screens) and a desk light (Littlelite) on 3 pin XLR. These must be connected before
powering up, as subsequent connection could result in software or hardware malfunctions.
Once you've connected all the peripherals you require, power on the desk using the switch
on the rear panel. The external power supply has a separate switch on it, so if you see no
immediate response, check you have both power switches set to ON, and that the IEC
lead is firmly attached to the external power supply.
When you power on the desk, the desk will run through its power up routine and after a
short while you will be presented with the Home Screen as shown in the picture below:
Setting Up the Desk
Before you start programming cues etc, you will need to set up the desk.
Press the SETUP key to display the Setup Window on the touch screen.
Setup is intended to give you access to the core settings for the Frog 2, and you shouldn't
need to enter the Setup area during a show. It is, however also used for saving and
loading of show files and updating the desk software.
