Solution & Solution XL Quick Start Guide
Welcome to the Solution & Solution XL Quick Start Guide. This chapter is intended to get you started using your new
desk – for full information, please see the relevant chapters of this User Manual.
Getting Started
Before you power up the desk, it is essential to attach all the peripherals you will be using. The desk has support for
USB peripherals such as a Keyboard and Mouse and a VGA monitor (or touch screen). In addition, you should connect
the DMX or Ethernet cables for controlling your lighting rig.
These must be connected before powering up, as subsequent connection could result in software or hardware
malfunctions.
Once you have connected all the peripherals you require, power on the desk using the switch on the rear panel. If you
see no immediate response, check that the power switch is set to ON, and that the IEC lead is rmly attached to the
external power supply. The desk will boot up and you will be presented with the desk software.
Selecting Operating Mode
There are three operating modes for the Solution & Solution XL desks. These operating modes are designed for operators
with different skill levels to ensure they get the maximum out of the console. For the purposes of this Quick Start Guide,
we will select Non Tracking Mode. In this mode, everything that is output from the desk is recorded into each cue, and
changes made in one cue will not affect other cues. As you progress your knowledge of the Solution & Solution XL you
may want to experiment with the other modes. Details of these modes can be found in the full user manual, see page
75 for full details.
