OmniSistem Q Scan - Manual (Page 9)

The Fast Pad button enables a small black window. When the mouse is inside this window, the 2nd and 3rd
faders are forced (fast) to a setting relative to the x/y coordinates inside the window.
The Bottom sections are Page and Record. Click on Pages button in the help menu for more detailed
information.
The very bottom has a blue bar for scripting a show. It basically allows you to record a series of mode
configurations and play them back in a timed sequence. Click Scripts button in the help menu for more
detailed information.
FADERS:
Faders have several active parts to them.
The End Tabs have a small arrow and, if mouse clicked, move the fader by one notch in the direction
indicated. If Mouse button is held down over these then the fader will creep quickly in the direction indicated.
The Center TAB element can be grabbed and dragged using the mouse button. Only when released does
the fader actually adopt the new value setting.
The Travel Bar can be mouse clicked to jump the fader in larger increments than the End Tabs.
Note: You may Mouse Click a fader and then use left & right arrows on your keyboard to change that fader.
PRESETS:
The select buttons 1 to 8 simply set fader #1 to 1 of 8 choices for those modes that have only 8 choices.
You may also set fader #1 AUTO active and the 8 available choices will be activated one at a time for a few
seconds each.
It is often easier to operate a system when the theory behind it has been detailed.
Scanning
The Display Unit has 3 scanning mirrors.
The first mirror is used for blanking (shutting the laser on and off) by re-directing the Laser beam away from
the next 2 mirrors.
The second mirror sweeps the beam up and down (only) on to the 3rd mirror.
The third mirror sweeps the beam from left to right (only) and out the front glass window.
