Pearl 2008 Manual - 16th July 2007

9.1 Create

9.1.1 Connecting the tablet

The tablet is connected to the Serial port on the Pearl. It is powered

through the serial port. You must turn off the Pearl when connecting

the tablet. The pen or puck should also be plugged into its socket on

the rear of the tablet. Some tablets have an on/off switch on the rear.

The power LED on the tablet should be lit, and when you touch the pen

to the tablet surface, the status LED should light up.

User Setting 7 (Press AVO and Softkey C) must be set to “G-Tablet” to

enable the tablet. If the tablet does not respond, change the setting of

User Setting 7 a few times until it comes back to “G-Tablet”.

9.1.2 Using the tablet

To use the tablet, press the pen onto it (the button on the side of the

pen doesn’t do anything). A quick press is like pushing a button on the

Pearl. You can also draw on the tablet by keeping the pen pressed

down while moving it. This is used to move fixtures or change

attributes.

The tablet has a paper overlay on it, with printed pads which simulate

buttons or other controls. You can write your fixture names, group

names, attributes, palette entries and even draw your stage layout on

the overlay so that you know what’s what. Spare overlays are available

from Avolites.

The Pearl will behave as if you are pressing buttons on it in the normal

way, so the LEDs and the display will change as you use the tablet.

Many of the functions of the Pearl are quicker and easier using the

tablet. Sometimes you might find it easier to do part of the function on

the tablet and part on the console. The end result is the same.

9.1.3 Selecting fixtures on the tablet

To select a fixture, press the pen onto one of the “Fixtures” pads

marked on the tablet overlay. You will see the fixture Swop button on

the Pearl light up as if you’d

pressed it. The first 60 fixtures

which are patched are available

on the tablet.

You can select a group in a

similar way. Press the pen onto

one of the Group pads marked

on the overlay. You will see all

the fixtures in the group recalled

on the Pearl. Only the first 30

groups are available on the

tablet.

9.1.4 Changing the position of the fixtures

You can control the position of the selected fixture by drawing on the

Stage area of the tablet. The selected fixtures will move to the pan-tilt

position specified by the pen on the tablet. You can move the fixtures

to a particular position just by touching the pen to a particular place on

Fixture select pads
