CHAPTER NINE

9. The graphics tablet

In this chapter: using the graphics tablet with the Pearl

• Using the tablet

• Functions available on the tablet

The graphics tablet is an accessory to the Pearl. On “Touring” versions

of the Pearl it is fitted to the right of the console in the flight case. It

allows you to use a pen to select fixtures, groups, colours, and position

the fixtures by simply drawing with the pen. You will be amazed how

much easier your programming and show operating becomes when you

use the graphics tablet.

The graphics tablet needs to be plugged into the serial port of the unit,

and User Setting 7 (press AVO and Softkey C) needs to be set to “G

Tablet.

9.1 Using the tablet

To use the tablet, you simply 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 pads which simulate various

buttons on the Pearl. 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 displays 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.
