When 10Scene Wall Mounts are first connected to MagiCQ, QuickQ or GeNetix interface the front panel LEDs of each 10Scene Wall Plate will flash briefly indicating the unit is powered and connected.
10Scene Controls
The front panel interface contains 10 10Scene buttons, these have dual colour LEDs used to indicate when a Scene has been stored to a button and when a Scene is active. When a button LED is Blue this indicates a Scene has been stored, but is not active, when in Red this indicates the Scene is active.
Buttons can be labelled using the provided paper legends on the v1 and v2 10Scene Wall Plates.
10Scene Programming
10Scene Wall Plates do not hold any programming themselves; they are a remote trigger for ChamSys control system they are connected to. 10Scene Wall Plates can trigger 'Scenes' when connected direclty to a GN5, GN10, GN10P and GN10R GeNetix Node or trigger Playbacks/Executes when connected to a MagicQ / QuickQ control system.
