dot2 User Manual
Now you might be presented with a window that tells you that there already is a show with this name. Then you can
choose to overwrite the existing file/show or tap Cancel to give it a new and different name.
Now the console will create the new show.
Save show
If we ignore everything on the screens for a second and just focus on saving your new (but still empty) show.
This is also handled from the Backup Menu. Please press the Backup key once more.
Besides the New Show option there's three more options. One of them is to Save Show .
Save Show as... is used if we wanted to save with a new name.
But as you can also read in the text on the Save Show button, you could just have pressed the Backup key like
double clicking a mouse. We can't do this when the Backup Menu is open. So now you have two choices: Press the
Save Show button or press the Backup key three times (one to close the menu and then twice to do the save
show command).
Remember to save your show often. There's no inbuilt power backup in the console and if you turn it off or looses
power then the console shuts down (without saving).
You should also save your show on an external device like a USB memory stick. Please insert one in the last USB
connector. And then save the show. Now it's saved both on the stick and in the console.
Ok? Let's move on to the next chapter.
2.4. Getting Started Guide - Adding and patching dimmers
So we have a new empty show. We need to add some lights for it to be fun (without it, then console is just a rather
expensive paper weight).
