MagicQ User Manual 32 Version 1.4.9.0
Towards the bottom of the touch screen are two small windows, the Status Display and the Input Display.
The Status Display shows the current date and time, the ADD / SWAP status of the console and other
relevant status information.
The Input Display shows the data that has been currently entered through the keypad and the keyboard.
Note that text is not entered into the main Windows until ENTER is pressed. This allows the user to
choose whether the keyboard data is SET into fields in the windows or onto Playbacks.
After a command has been entered it also confirms that the command has been accepted and shows any
error messages when a command is not possible.

The area around the two large rotary encoders is referred to as the head control area. It is used to alter the

The NEXT HEAD and PREV HEAD buttons are
used to select an individual head to modify.
The other buttons control the selection mode;
LOCATE, HIGHLIGHT, FAN, SINGLE,
ODD/EVEN, and ALL.
