Care of Your Console

To keep your console in best condition please observe the following recommendations:

 Keep liquids away from the console. Drinks spilt over a console may cause irreparable damage.

 Keep the console out of direct sunlight – place the console in the shade. Excess heat from the sun may cause

damage to the touch screens and to overlays.

 Do not use sharp objects on the touch-screen. If you wish to use an object other than your finger, then use a

blunt object that will not damage the surface.

 Do not block the ventilation grills on the rear panel, side and underneath the console.

 Do not use the console outside its operating temperature range.

 Handle the console with care when moving or transporting it. The console contains components that may be

damaged by shock such as a hard drive. Always use a padded flight case wherever possible.

 Do not use solvents or cleansers to clean the console. Do not rub firmly on the metal or plastic surfaces – this

may cause the paint or lettering to be removed. Gently use a damp cloth to clean the panels. Do not put
water on the touch screen as this may get inside it and make it unusable.

Safety Notes

 Do not open the console unless you are a skilled person authorised and trained by ChamSys in console

maintenance and repair. The console contains components with voltages that may shock.

 CAUTION: QuickQ consoles incorporate a replaceable CR2032 processor battery. These batteries can cause a

serious burn hazard if ingested. Do not place battery into the mouth. Keep out of reach of small children. If
accidentally ingested the battery it is imperative to seek immediate medical help.

 Do not use the console if the power cables are damaged in any way.

 Repairs should only be undertaken by authorised service representatives. There are no user serviceable parts

inside the console.

 If liquids are spilt over the console then remove power immediately, and seek advice from your authorised

service representative.

 When transporting the console ensure that there are sufficient people to carry the console.

 Ensure safe installation of the QuickQ Rack and Consoles, so that the unit cannot slip off or fall from it

operated position.

Glossary

Below are a few commonly used terms to help with getting started with QuickQ programing.
DMX or DMX512: an acronym for Digital Multiplex and is a standard for digital communication networks that are
commonly used to control stage lighting and effects. Today, we can transmit DMX data over both direct DMX
cables and via Network. QuickQ has connections for both.

Fixture: A fixture is the name used by the console to control a device. Each Fixture has its own number. A Fixture
can be a lamp operated by a dimmer, an LED, a Moving Light or any device that can be controlled via DMX. Other
consoles may refer to this as a Lighting Instrument, Instrument, or Head, and may be referred to by a channel
number or head number.

Fixture Mode: Most fixtures have different modes that can be selected on the physical fixture itself. It is
important that the mode set on the fixture matches the mode selected during Patching. The Fixture mode
defines the number of DMX Channels a fixture uses.

DMX Channels: DMX512 has 512 individual DMX channels per each Universe of DMX.

DMX Universe: A collection of 512 DMX Channels is referred to as a Universe of DMX.

Patching: Telling the console what fixtures are connected to the console and connected via DMX.

Start DMX Address: Often shortened to DMX address as in “what is the DMX address of that fixture?” Each
fixture has its own starting DMX address, which is different for every fixture.

Fixture Number: Each fixture is given a number during patching. Fixtures 1 to 20 or 1 to 40 on the QQ30 can also

be controlled from the fixture faders with the corresponding number. These may also be referred to as the
Channel Number if it is a simple dimmer in a theatre.

Group: A collection of more than one fixture of the same Type and Fixture Mode, but could also be a collection of
all the Fixtures of one gel colour.

Cue: A recorded collection of values of levels and Attributes for one or more fixtures.

Attributes: QuickQ has 4 attributes categories used to describe and control Fixtures. Intensity, Colour, Position

and Beam. Beam includes many functions that are simply not the other 3, for example – shutter, prism and gobo
wheels!

FX: Shortened from Effects. The automated application of changes to one of the 4 attributes. There are Intensity
Effects, Colour Effects, Beam Effects and Position Effects built into QuickQ.

MIDI: MIDI is an acronym that stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface. It is a way to connect devices that
make and control sound. It can be used to trigger lighting from an audio device such as a digital keyboard.

Multifunction Faders: Are found on the left side of the console. The QQ10 and the QQ20 have 20 faders and the
QQ30 has 40 faders.

Multifunction Fader Mode: The faders on the left side of the console can operate in one of 3 modes using the
mode buttons on the console above the COL MIX encoders or on the bottom left of the touch screen:

Fixture: each fader controls one fixture as assigned during patching.
Group: each fader controls a group or collection of fixtures recorded to it
Cue: each fader can have one cue recorded to it for playback in this mode.

Cue Stack: One or more cues, either taken one after the other by pressing the go button or taken automatically
one after the other in a Chase.

Theatre Style Cue Stack: a numbered sequence of cues in a cue stack, typically run one after the other in the
same order and fader in and out with a Fade Time.

Chase: an automated sequence of cues taken one after the other.

Fade Time: the time taken for a cue to change. Fade in and fade out can be the same or different.

Playbacks: are the faders on the bottom right of the console:

QQ10 has one theatre style cue stack and two chase cue stacks
QQ20 and QQ30 each have 10 playbacks

Palettes: a collection of fixture attributes of one type — i.e. colour, that can be used as building blocks when
recording cues. They are then referenced by cues and many cues can contain the same palette. The advantage is
if for example, you had 500 cues all referencing the colour palette named “yellow” and you wanted to change the
particular shade of yellow you had used in all 500 cues — re-recording the colour palette “yellow” would achieve
this in one action. Palettes are found towards the top of their respective parameter windows.

QuickQ Software User Manual

1. Introduction

This document is intended to enable you to get up and running with QuickQ console or Rack mount product. It is
designed to introduce the layout of the console along with programming instructions and the key functions.

This manual covers QuickQ software version 2.0 and onwards.

QuickQ Consoles

The QuickQ range of consoles includes the QuickQ10, Quick 20 and QuickQ 30 consoles. All consoles run the same
QuickQ software – they just vary in number of faders, encoders and buttons and number of universes output
from the console.
QuickQ consoles use the same operating system utilising the same installer .cdq extension files.

Connections

The picture below shows the connections on the QuickQ 20 console. The QuickQ 10 and 30 consoles have similar
layouts, with the QuickQ 10 having only 1 DMX port and no Midi connectors. The QuickQ 30 has 3 DMX ports.

Plugging Up

DMX Connections

The QuickQ 10, 20 and 30 consoles have either 1, 2 or 3 direct DMX outputs respectively on the rear of the panel
so you can connect your DMX cables direct to the console.

Alternatively, you can use Ethernet and an external Ethernet to DMX converter box such as our range of SnakeSys
Ethernet to DMX Interfaces or Chauvet Net-X range. Connect the Interface to the console Network port via a
network cable.

Console Layout

All QuickQ consoles layout are very similar — the programming interface is consistent across the entire range of
consoles.

One of the main areas of QuickQ consoles is the large 9.7” multi-touch display. QuickQ consoles feature an
intuitive smart phone based, app-based user interface making them extremely user friends.

Other key areas of the QuickQ physical hardware, is the Multi-function fixture/Group/Cue faders to the left of the
display and the Playback section below the multi-touch display.

QuickQ consoles have a grand master fader located on the lower right side of the console – this fader must be at
full to enable connected fixtures to output from the console.

QuickQ Rack

The Rack runs the same QuickQ software as QuickQ Consoles – The rack is aimed as an installation product –
instead of the having the faders/encoders of QuickQ consoles, it fits into a standard 1U 19” Rack size and has 10
Scene trigger buttons on the front of the unit.

QuickQ rack use the same operating system as QuickQ Consoles utilising the same installer .cdq extension files.

Connections

The picture below shows the connections on the QuickQ Rack

Plugging Up

DMX Connections

The QuickQ Rack has 2 direct DMX outputs on the rear of the unit so you can connect your DMX cables direct to
the console.

Alternatively, you can use Ethernet and an external Ethernet to DMX converter box such as our range of SnakeSys
Ethernet to DMX Interfaces or Chauvet Net-X range. Connect the Interface to the console Network port via a
network cable.

QuickQ User Interface layout

The QuickQ user interface is based around a smart phone style interface, with familiar buttons similar to those
used on phones/tablets such as the home and menu keys.
The top menu bar of the interface remains consistent with its buttons in all windows on the console.
From Left to Right the functions here are:

Back, Clear, Home, Record, Action and Menu as pictured below.

Below this a ‘soft’ toolbar of options specific to each window can be found.
For example in the ‘Home’ window buttons on screen to open controls for Intensity, Position Colour and Beam
can be found.

The Central section of the screen area shows the current open window – for example the fixture layout view on
the ‘home’ window and the Colour picker in the ‘colour’ window.

At the bottom of the display legends can be found for each playback on the console. The legends for each
playback also show handy feedback such as the current cue of the playback if a multi-cue stacks such as a chase.

Settings Menu

To access the QuickQ settings menu, click the main menu button on the top right of the display and press the
“Settings” option. Within the Settings window, you are able to adjust network, DMX and user interface options.

Also found within the QuickQ Settings window are a selection of global options that can be applied to the console,
these can be found below the “Network”, “DMX”, “User Interface” and “Update” buttons. Changing the way the
console playbacks, cue stacks and chases behave, QuickQ consoles can be run in 2 different modes, live mode and
theatre mode.

Theatre mode, unlike Live mode, defaults all future cue recordings to cue stacks, enabling the user to step
through the cues one at a time. In addition to this, Theatre mode also enables the use of move when dark and
playback crossfades, converting playback 2 to a dedicated crossfade fader.

Access Levels

Access Levels can be used to prevent users from making unwanted changes to the show files and console settings.

There are 3 access levels, Admin is the default and allows unlimited control of the console, patch and settings.
Programmer allows users to program shows but not to change the patch or settings. Operator prevents any
changes to the show file, but the show can still be operated as normal. When in the Operator level the home
screen changes to the Execute window.

The access level can be changed in the Settings window. The Admin and Programmer access levels can be
password protected, and passwords can be changed in the Settings window. The current access level and the
passwords are stored in the show file. The user must enter the current Admin password before they can change a
password.

DMX Settings

The DMX Settings window can be used to define the way the console outputs DMX. QuickQ automatically assigns
each console universe to a corresponding DMX port located on the rear of the console.

If you wish to output via the console’s network port, the output protocol and universe can be defined within this
window. With each available universe defined at the top of the window, within a universe tab simply select the
protocol required from the “Send Over Network” drop down and set the ArtNet universe below it.

The DMX Settings window also features a Test Mode for testing the console output and a Hot takeover mode for
responding to additional ArtNet data.

Once enabled, Test mode sends a 0-255 DMX ramp on the currently selected universes, outputting to all
connected fixtures irrespective of patch or address.

Hot takeover mode allows the console’s output to automatically be enabled and disabled based on the current

DMX traffic on the connected network. If for instance QuickQ detects another console outputting on the network,
QuickQ will disable its own output to ensure the other signal is received.
