Full
Tracking Backup (FTB) allows you to connect two consoles, or one
console and a Lighting Playback Controller (LPC), using one as a backup for the other. This provides you with a working
console running your
current show even if something happens to your main
console.
Use the keyswitch on the back right corner of the
console’s
face panel to
switch from one
processor to the other. The LEDs labeled A and B indicate which
console is which, and which is the main
console.
Note: Only the main
console may be used to control outputs. The backup
console (or LPC) remains inert until either the keyswitch transfers control to it or the link between the two consoles is broken.
