1. Quick Start

If you are familiar with media servers, this section tells you how to

quickly get Ai up and running.

For more details about configuring the system see section

2 onwards.

At the top of the screen is the Avo Intuition panel which tells you

what each control does if you hover over it.

1.1 Setting up hardware

• Connect console monitor, keyboard and mouse (see section 2.1

on page

13 for connection details).

• Connect outputs to projectors/display hardware.

• If required, connect your controller (MSC-1 or Sapphire Media)

by USB (see section

2.1.3 on page 15).

• Connect ArtNet/DMX/MIDI if you are linking into another control

system (see section

7 on page 62.).

• Start Ai by double clicking the icon on the desktop or from the

Start menu.

1.2 Creating or loading a project

• New project: click door icon top left of the main user interface,

type in name for the new project and press the return key.

Note that it is often easier to load and modify a sample project

than starting from scratch.

• Load project: click Folder / Binder icon in the top left of the

main user interface, use the arrows or swipe the screen to

browse through projects, then click on the project image or the

folder icon to load the project. Recently used projects are

shown at the bottom. Template projects are shown at the top.

• All Ai files are stored in system drive:/Program

Files/Avolites/Ai/Distrib. Subfolders Projects, Models, Media etc

contain project-related files. Although not essential, it is

preferred that users store all project assets in these folders, this

will ensure that the entire system and all projects can be

conveniently moved from one machine to another machine by

simply copying the Distrib folder and putting it in the same

place on another system.
