The workspace is a collection of files that contain all the program information for the show you are about to create. It also saves the Interface Manager and Input Output Patch. Four main files make up the workspace. They are,

Caption text
File Description File Extension
Workspace Contains reference to the other workspace files and information about the user interface setup .wsp
Fixtures Contain the definition of all your fixtures, Interface Manager and Input Output Patch .fix
Scenes Contain all your programmed Scenes .scn
Cue Lists Contains all your programmed show Cues .clt

To start your own Workspace, Start the Workspace wizard from Main Menu/Wizards/Workspace. See Workspace Wizard.

Use the default directory

Enter a name for your Workspace

Enter your name as the Programmer

Enter the Venue name

Click Next

Use the default Templates

Set the number of universes you are going to use. You can add more at any later time.

Click Next and review the summary.

Click End.

When the Workspace wizard is complete it will automatically run the Fixture Wizard. See also Installing Fixtures.

Get control of your fixture and check they are connected and defined correctly. See Fixture Control, Chase and Effects control.

You now have a new Workspace ready to be programmed.
