Page 42 – 2. Setting up and using the console
TitanUniversal_Man_v10_QU.doc 15 March 2016
The Tiger Touch and Sapphire Touch simulators show
the touch screen display separately from the Virtual
Panel.
The Virtual Panel works exactly the same as the real panel; to hold a
button down so you can press a second button, right click it using the
mouse.
2.5.3 Using Virtual Panel with a console
As well as its use with the simulator, you can also run the Virtual
Panel on a console. This could be handy to keep things going if you
are suffering hardware problems with the real console controls.
To show the Virtual Panel, click the Tools menu on the toolbar, then
select Other Programs, then Virtual Panel. The Virtual Panel controls
will work in parallel with the real controls.
2.6 Loading and saving shows
You can save any number of different shows on a USB drive or the
console’s internal hard disk. The console will also autosave the show
periodically.
Shows created on the Quartz can be loaded into any
other Avolites Titan console, but not to older non-Titan
consoles as the showfile format is different.
Showfiles from newer versions of Titan may not load
correctly into consoles with older versions of Titan.
Although your show is safe on the console’s internal hard disk, it’s a
good idea to also save it to a USB pen drive which you can take with
you in case something bad happens to the console or if you want to
transfer a show to a different console.
2.6.1 Saving the show
You can save your show at any time either with its current name or
with a new name. If you save your show with its current name, a new
version of the show will be created. This allows you to go back to
previous versions of your show if needed.
To save your current show:
1> Press the Disk button.
2> Press [Save Show].
3> If you have a USB drive connected, use the softkeys to select
whether to save on [Removable Disk] or [Internal hard drive].
4> If this is a new show, enter a name for the show on the
keyboard. If this is a new version of an existing show you can
enter a tag to help identify the version, which will be shown on
the Show Browser screen when you load shows.
5> Press Enter or [Save] (or [Overwrite] if the show already
exists). The show will be saved.
6> Press Exit or [OK] to leave Disk mode.
