The Tablet is now ready to use.
If you have any Fixtures patched you can immediately select them by clicking the
stylus onto the appropriate Fixture select button. The Preset LED’s on the desk
should light up showing that they are selected.
If they don’t, click on the  [FIXTURES or MIMIC] button (bottom right of Tablet). Now
the Preset LED’s light up to show which Fixtures you have selected, rather than
showing the Dimmer levels.
15.4 Using the Tablet
To click on a button on the Tablet, press on it with the Stylus. The button on
the side of the stylus doesn’t do anything.
For the most part, the Tablet simple provides an alternative way of
performing desk functions. Apart from the few features exclusive to the
Tablet, this section of the Manual will not explain what the functions do, only
how to access them.
You can use the index if necessary to remind yourself of any functions you
have forgotten.
As the Tablet mimics the desk, the desk should behave as if you were
performing the functions in the usual way, changing Attribute Banks, lighting
LED’s etc. You may find it easier to do some functions partly on the desk
and partly on the Tablet. The effect should be the same.
The only exception to this is the Instant Access features listed above, which
provide quick access to Attributes and put them in the Programmer, but do
not change the Attribute Bank.
15.4.1 Selecting Fixtures with the Tablet
 Click the stylus onto the button of the Fixture you wish to select.
15.4.2 Showing which Fixtures are selected
 Click on the Fixtures OR Mimics button to toggle the Preset Channel
LED’s to show either the Dimmer level, or which Fixtures are selected.
15.5 Controlling Attributes from the Graphics Tablet
15.5.1 The Attribute Select Buttons
These are the first 30 Select Buttons, and are coloured blue. They mimic the
Attribute Bank buttons on the desk. The top row of buttons 1 - 15 access the
upper Attribute of any given Attribute Bank, normally controlled by Wheel B.
The bottom row of buttons 16 - 30 access the lower Attribute of any given
Attribute Bank, normally controlled by Wheel A.
eg. Attribute button 3 controls Pan and button 18 below it controls Tilt.
You can either use the buttons to enter an Attribute Bank as normal (the
Attribute Bank selected will be mimicked on the LED’s on the desk) or you
can use them to actually control the Attribute.
15.5.2 Working with Attribute Select buttons
There are some occasions when you may wish to address an individual
Attribute of a Fixture, in the same way that the Attribute Bank buttons and
Wheels allow this on the desk.
To adjust the level of a single Attribute :
