User Profile Settings
The user profiles contain most of the settings relevant to the users. The programmer information, views, selected
elements, values, preferences, and much more.
Many of these elements are stored and selected by using the software. There are some settings that can be set in the
User Profiles menu.
Navigate to the menu:
1. Press the Menu key.
2. Tap the Settings button.
3. Tap the User Configuration button.
4. Tap the Profiles button on the left menu.
There are some settings here that can also be changed relevant places in the software. For instance, the Single Step
setting can be changed in the Encoder Bar.

DMX Readout:
This is used to change the readout of DMX values. This is useful when editing fixture types.
Normal Value:
This is the intensity value used when the Normal keyword is used - typically by pressing the At key twice. It is a DMX
value, so the DMX readout setting affects how to input a value in this field.
Value Readout:
This is the default value readout. Many sheets can be set to show a readout, this can be a specific readout type or it
can follow this default type. This setting can be changed in the Encoder Bar.
Speed Readout:
This is the default speeds readout. The options are Hertz, BPM, and Seconds. Speed is used in Phasers.
Preset Readout:
This changes the way presets are displayed in Fixture and Sequence Sheets. The preset can be displayed with the

Precise Edit:
This function is used when editing values in sheets. It can be difficult to hit a field precisely in a sheet with fingers.
Turning this Off makes it easier to select a field without accidentally creating a new selection. Learn more about this in
the Gesture topic.
Single Step:
This setting is also in the Encoder Bar. It is used when working with Phasers. It turns off the looping function of the
phaser to make it easier to edit a single step in the phaser.
