Chapter One:
Manual Console Operation
Power Up and Down Sequences
The LP-3000 is a computer-based lighting console. The internal computer is a
conventional PC, with Microsoft
Windows
95 software providing the user
interface. For this reason, the Power Up and Down sequences are critical to correct
operation. Unexpected power loss can damage the current show file. The use of an
uninterruptable power supply (UPS) is strongly recommended to prevent sudden
power loss while the console is running. Also, the UPS system filters electrical noise
and spikes that could upset the LP-3000. A UPS system designed for use with
desktop PCs that has a capacity of 200 watts or more is acceptable for use with the
LP-3000.
Make sure that the power source used to power the LP-3000 is reliable and, if
possible, do not share the circuit with other equipment.
To Power Up the LP-3000
1.
Move the power switch to the On position.
The power switch is located on the back of the console above the power
cord jack.
After turning on the power switch, wait for the LP-3000 Stage View (Main)
screen to be displayed before attempting to use the console.
