58 Hog 4 Operations Manual
3.1.10 Shutting Down and Restarting the Console
To properly shut down or restart the console while running a show: Setup → Quit. The Quit
button is located on the right hand end of the Setup Toolbar. After pressing the quit button a
Shut Down dialog will appear with the following options:
Shut Down: Shutting down the console exits the software completely. All Art-Net,
sACN, and 5-pin DMX transmission from the console is completely turned off.
Processors attached to the show will stop transmitting Art-Net and sACN but will
continue to output 5-pin DMX at a low 2 Hz refresh rate until they are powered off.
Please note that shutting down the console does not power off the desk. To completely
turn off the console's power flip the power switch to the off position. For HedgeHog
consoles press and hold the power switch for 3 seconds. If the console is shutdown
while running in "processor mode" then it will return to processor mode when rebooted.
Restart Console: Restarting the console exits the Hog software completely, resets
the computer, and re-boots the console to the start window. All Art-Net, sACN, and
DMX 5-pin transmission from the console is turned off. Processors attached to the
show will stop transmitting Art-Net and sACN but will continue to output DMX 5-pin at a
low 2 Hz refresh until powered off or loaded into another show. If the console is
restarted while running in "processor mode" then it will return to processor mode when it
finishes rebooting.
Log Off: Log off closes the current show file and returns to the user to the start
window. If the console is in processor mode then logging off will return the user to the
start window. The contents of the programmer as well as any cuelists or scenes that
were active in playback will continue to output from the 5-pin DMX outputs of the
console and processors at a low 2 Hz refresh rate until you log onto another show or
until the console is powered off. Art-Net and sACN transmission is completely turned
off on the console and processors upon log off.
In all cases your show data is automatically saved to disk.
