Lightning 1000 Installation Guide
Welcome to Lightning
Pinnacle’s Lightning is an advanced still store that allows you to record and
play stills, organize them into sequences, create transitions between
channels (from the “Preview” channel to the “Air” channel), and create
basic
layouts with your stills. You can also create your own transitions using
third party plug-ins.
Note
