It is not necessary to connect a USB mouse. A mouse is only required if the touch screen becomes damaged.
DMX Connections
The MagicQ consoles have 4 direct DMX outputs on the rear of the panel so you can connect your DMX cables
direct to the console.
Alternatively you can use Ethernet and an external Ethernet to DMX converter box such as our range of SnakeSys
Ethernet to DMX Interfaces. Connect the Interface to the console Network port via a network cable.
Powering Up
To power up the console press the power switch on the back panel. The
blue LEDs around the left and right of the display should light, after a
few seconds the screen will come to life and you will see the operating
system loading.
