corded step. Pressing "enter" when on the last recorded
step will add an additional step to the end of the show.
If you press "enter" while the step number is not at the
end you will advance to the next step number the same
as if you incremented the step number using the data
wheel.
At any time while recording the show you can enter a
name for the show. Use the right cursor switch to move
the cursor on the display to the right, continuing past
the hold time numbers. The screen will change showing
the show name on the top line and the loop status on
the bottom line. Edit the name by putting the cursor un-
der each character then using the + or - switch or the
data wheel to change the character. Setting the loop
status lets you to program the show to loop continuously
or play once through and stop. After you have finished
recording the steps, save the show by selecting a page
and number where you want to store it. Make sure that
the "scene" LED is off. If you select a show number that
is already lit, a message will appear asking if you want
to write over the existing show. Press "yes" or "no".
Note: It can take up to 30 seconds to overwrite or erase
a show depending on how much of the memory is cu-
rrently filled.
After you have saved the show, NAVIGATOR PLUS re-
mains in record mode allowing you to continue to edit
the show. To exit record mode, press "record", the LEDs
will stop flashing.
9.2.RECALLING SHOWS
To run a show, press the "show" switch, and then select
the desired page and number switch. You can only run
one show at a time and shows can only call one scene
at a time. The name of the show will be displayed along
with the current step's scene and hold time. If the show
is set to loop, it will restart after the last step's hold time
has counted down. If loop is set to "off", the show will
end after the last scene has been called.
Press the "black" switch to pause a show and to black
out the fixtures. Press "black" again to resume the show
and turn the fixtures back on. If you press black and
hold it for 1 second the show will be turned off. If you
press the number switch of the show that is currently
running the show will be turned off. If you select a new
show while one is running it will replace the current
show. If you select a new scene while a show is running
it will also turn off the show. If at any time you need to
see the show display for a show that is running you can
restore it by pressing the "show" switch.
Press the left arrow switch to pause a show then press
the right arrow switch to continue. Press the right arrow
switch to advance a show to the next step if it is not
paused.
9.3.ERASING SHOWS
To erase an existing show, press "record" then "show"
then "erase". As when recording a show, all LEDs that
contain a show will be lit. Next select the show to era-
se. That show name will appear in the LCD. The mes-
sage "Erase this?" will also appear. Press "yes" or "no".
If you press "yes" the show will be erased. Erase show
only works when there is no show currently being edi-
ted. While editing a show, "erase" is used to erase show
steps. You can abort show erase at any time by either
pressing "no" or by exiting record mode by pressing the
"record" switch.
Note: It can take up to 30 seconds to overwrite or erase
a show depending on how much of the memory is cu-
rrently filled.

9.4.EDITING SHOWS
To edit a show that has already been recorded, press
"record" followed by "show". Instead of entering steps
for a new show, press the show number of the one you
want to edit. The message "Edit this existing Show?" will
appear in the display. Press "yes" and the show will be
called up and you can add to it or modify it by selec-
ting steps and changing any value. You can use the
erase switch to remove a step. You can also insert addi-
tional steps by pressing "add". You will be prompted
whether or not to add an empty show step here. Press
"yes" to insert an empty show step at the current step
number. All following show steps will be moved up one
number. After the empty step is added you can record
a scene or time value there.
After editing, a show can be saved at the same or at a
new location by pressing any number switch. The sce-
ne LED must be turned off. You can use this method to
copy a show to another memory location by calling it
for edit and then saving it without making any changes.
10.MIDI
NAVIGATOR PLUS allows you to use MIDI note com-
mands to call scenes and shows using a MIDI sequencer
or MIDI keyboard so that you can synchronize lighting to
a MIDI performance. Six pages of scenes and one page
of shows can be called using MIDI note commands on
any MIDI channel. This gives you access to 96 scenes
and 16 shows per MIDI channel. MIDI note numbers
0-95 are used to call scenes and note numbers 96-111
are used to call shows. MIDI only provides 128 notes per
MIDI channel so there is a limit to how many scenes and
shows can be called from one MIDI channel. NAVIGA-
TOR PLUS must be set to the same MIDI channel as the
MIDI device you are connected to.
NAVIGATOR PLUS will also send MIDI note commands
whenever a scene or show is called using the front pa-
nel switches. This allows you to use the NAVIGATOR PLUS
as the source when recording a MIDI performance.
You can call more than 96 scenes with MIDI by using
extra MIDI channels. When you select the MIDI channel
from the setup menu you can also enable additional
MIDI channels by setting "Extra Channels" to a value of
1 - 9. When "Extra Channels" is set to 0, you will only re-
ceive on the selected MIDI channel. When set to 1, you
will receive on the selected MIDI channel as well as the
next MIDI channel. You can use up to 9 additional MIDI
channels. Each channel will address six additional pa-
ges of scenes. If for example you are using MIDI chan-
nel 1 and you have enabled 2 extra channels, scene
pages 1-6 will use MIDI channel 1, scene pages 7-12 will
use MIDI channel 2 and scene pages 13-18 will use MIDI
channel 3. Note numbers 0-95 will be used by each
MIDI channel.
When a MIDI note is received it will call a scene or start
a show that corresponds to that note number. If the
same note number is received again the scene or show
will be toggled off. If a different note number is recei-
ved, a new scene or show will replace the one that is
running.
10.1.MEMORY BACKUP WITH MIDI
You can also use MIDI to back up the memory to a MIDI
recording system that is capable of receiving MIDI sys-
tem exclusive messages. Most PC based MIDI sequen-
cers offer this feature.
