Page 22 – 2. Setting up and using the console

Do not use the power switch on the rear of the console

to switch off the console as this would not close down

the console properly and you will lose any changes to

your show.

2.2.4 Titan Healthcheck

When the console starts up, it runs a small utility called Titan

Healthcheck which checks the file system and the installed firmware

and software. If any problems are found, a warning screen is

displayed which offers the option to fix the problems.

Only run fixes if you have plenty of time as some fixes can take up to

an hour to complete.

2.2.5 Connecting DMX lines

The console communicates with lighting fixtures using the DMX512

system. The console itself can output 12 universes of DMX (each 512

control channels). If you need to output more universes, it is

recommended to network the console to one or more Avolites

TitanNet processing nodes. This off-loads the DMX processing,

allowing the console to control up to 64 universes of DMX in total (see

section

12.4.1 on page 205 for more details).

The console has 4 DMX outputs on 5-pin XLR for direct connection to

fixtures and dimmers, and can send DMX over Ethernet and wireless

Ethernet systems to allow connection to remote DMX Ethernet nodes,

media servers, and so on.

When you patch a dimmer or fixture you tell

the Tiger Touch which of

the 12 (or 64 with TitanNet) DMX universes it is on. Each universe

can be configured to come out of one or more of the standard DMX
