1.1 How to use this manual
The manual is designed to achieve two objectives; firstly to get the new user
of the Pearl or Sapphire up and running very quickly, and secondly to provide
a fast reference book for the more experienced operator.
If you are using one of the desks for the first time and are keen to get going,
save yourself the embarrassment of blowing the board up by reading section
1.2 of this chapter and then go straight to either Chapter 2 Getting started
with Conventional lights if you have only simple Dimmer-based lamps or
Chapter 3 Getting started with Intelligent Fixtures if you have other DMX
Fixtures, or a combination of the two. These will tell you how to patch and
control Dimmer Channels and Intelligent Fixtures, and build a simple Memory
and Chase. In some cases, the first three Chapters of this Manual will be
practically everything you ever need to read.
The other chapters are designed to be completely self-contained for dipping
in to or reading as a whole. The idea is that if you read the chapter on
Chases, for example, this should tell you everything in the world that there is
to know about a Chase, starting with the simple stuff and leading you on
through the more complicated aspects. This means there is necessarily some
material repeated from the ‘get you going’ chapters, so that the later sections
remain self contained.
Where appropriate there is a help and hints problem solving section at the
end of each chapter too.
Terms are defined in the glossary

The important stuff
⇒ IF YOU DO NOT READ ANYTHING ELSE PLEASE READ THIS
SECTION.
(Please see
Appendix 1. Diagram of the Sapphire and Appendix 2. Diagram of the Pearl.)
Before powering up the console ensure the mains voltage selector is set to
the correct voltage for your area.
Failure to do this WILL cause severe damage, probably destroying the
power supply.
The voltage selector is below the mains intake socket on the Pearl and
behind the cardframe door on the Sapphire. You access this by opening the
door which will require a medium flat blade screwdriver. The switch has two
positions, 120V and 230V.
If you have the VGA colour Screen option you should connect this to the
VDU socket before turning on. On the Pearl there is a power outlet near the
mains inlet, on the Sapphire a separate mains supply is required.
