When Hog 4 PC opens the Start window will be displayed along with the splash screen. Once
a show file is loaded or opened, the two Hog 4 PC default screens will be displayed.
The Front Panel Interface
The front panel of Hog 4 PC looks and behaves very similarly to the front panel of the Hog 4
console. An image of the front panel interface is shown below. You can click on buttons to
simulate pressing keys on the console. You can also click and drag to alter the various
encoders or faders. In addition, when you right click on the trackball, it will illuminate blue
allowing you to then left click and drag on the trackball to adjust the pan and tilt of the
selected fixtures.
To hold down a single key and make another selection, simply press and hold Shift on your
computer keyboard when you click the key. As long as you are holding shift, this key (and
subsequent keys) will remain held down. You can then click on another key, button, cell, or
encoder to access further functions.
