2. Installation
In order to install MagicLights, you will need at
least version 1.9 of the system software or ver-
sion 2.1 or higher of the SMART EDIT software.
You can look up the system version in the infor-
mation field located in the “System Settings”
menu (bottom left).
Leave your Casablanca switched on and, in
“System Settings”, select the “Install Product”
button to open the corresponding window.
Now insert the SmartMedia installation card
into the Casablanca’s drive. When you insert it,
make sure the gold-colored contacts are facing
downwards and the beveled corner is on the
left pointing towards the front (i.e. towards the
Casablanca).
Push in the card so that only around half a centi-
meter remains protruding from the unit and you
feel some resistance.
You will now see the “MagicLights” software
listed in the window. Select it in the list and click
on “Activate” (SMART EDIT) or “License”. A nu-
merical keypad appears. You can use it to enter
the license code that you purchased from your
dealer. A message will then inform you that the
installation process has completed. You can now
remove the SmartMedia card.
If you want to install this program as a demo
version under SMART EDIT, click on “Cancel”
in the numerical keypad window (which ap-
pears after you select the program and click on
“Activate”). You will now see the word “Demo”
appear after the program name.
You can install MagicLights as the demo version
under the Casablanca system software (version
1.9 or higher) by inserting the SmartMedia card
and clicking on “activate”. Now wait until you
see the word “Demo” appear after the program
name.
Close the window by clicking on “OK” and then
remove the SmartMedia card.
MagicLights is now installed as the demo ver-
sion.
Notices regarding other products:
MagicLights supports the Power Key Option.
Separate instructions are not provided for the

3. What is MagicLights?
MagicLights contains numerous effects covering
many aspects of light, e.g. lighting, rays of light,
brightness.
You can illuminate your scenes, switch on a
simple spotlight, and make colored lights move
across the picture or insert flashes and lens
reflections.
You can also create beautiful effects using vari-
ous transition effects. These kinds of image-con-
tent effects are now available on the Casablanca
for the very first time.
MagicLights includes 5 transition effects and 12
image processing effects.
