1. QUICK START

This section is a quick guide on how to do most things on Avolites Titan consoles. Each section
has a link to take you to the appropriate manual section for more details.
Softkeys (the A-G menu buttons next to the screen) are shown in square brackets like [This].
Physical labelled buttons on the console are shown like <This>.

1.1 PATCHING FIXTURES

Press <Patch>, [Dimmers] or [Fixtures].
For Fixtures, from the softkeys choose fixture manufacturer (type on keyboard to filter the list)
then fixture type, then fixture mode.
Set [DMX Line] and [Address]. Console will automatically set these if you don’t change them.
Press buttons in the Fixtures window to patch the fixture, or patch fixtures on faders (except the
main playback faders) by pressing the blue select button (Section 4.1.3, p83).
1. Quick Start - Page 17
To patch a number of dimmers or fixtures at once, draw a selection box over buttons on the
screen, or on physical buttons hold down first select button and press last in range. Or
[Quantity] in the patch menu.
To change DMX address or line, use [Repatch Fixtures]. (Section 4.2, p88).
VIEW FIXTURE PATCH
To see an overview screen of how the console is patched, press <View/Open> then <Patch>
(Section 4.2.1 , p88).
SETTING FIXTURE OPTIONS
Press <Patch>, [Edit Fixtures], or use the Patch View screen.

1.2 CONTROLLING FIXTURES

Select fixtures for control by pressing select buttons.
Press <Locate> to “home” selected fixtures with lamp on. If fixture is patched on a fader, the
fader controls the dimmer. (Section 5.1.2. p102). Hold <Locate> and press attribute button to
remove that attribute from the locate (e.g. to locate without changing pan/tilt, hold <Locate> and
press <Position>).
, set
Select attribute to control using attribute bank buttons (labelled Intensity/Dimmer, Colour, Gobo
etc), then turn the wheels to set fixture. Display shows which attribute each wheel is controlling.
(Section 5.1.5, p105).
Open Attribute window onscreen (<View/Open> then one of the attribute bank buttons such as
<Position> or <Intensity>) to select attributes from buttons and to control subfixtures of
battens/arrays. (Section 5.1.6, p107).
Use Palettes to store often-used colours, positions etc. for instant recall, see next page.
TitanUniversal_v10_1_d.doc 13 April 2017
Page 18 – 1. Quick Start
FIXTURE GROUPS
Fixtures may be grouped for quick selection, press <Group>, [Record Group], select fixtures for
group, set legend using [Provide a legend], press a handle to store. If the handle has a fader it
becomes a master fader for the group. Order of fixture selection is remembered for use with
shapes. (Section 5.3.1, p123).
Shapes / effec
Titan can use preset shapes, patterns you create yourself (key frame shapes) or pixel mapped
patterns.
Select fixtures. The order of fixture selection is used by shapes.
At top menu press [Shapes and Effects], [Shape Generator], [Create]. Select attribute of shape
then select a shape to run. (Section 7.1.1, p142).
Or from the Shape Libra
Library]) you can select a shape directly. Filter the list of shapes using the attribute buttons.
Use the wheels and [Adjust Speed, Size and Phase]/[Adjust Phase, Spread and Offset] to configure
the shape. Spread distributes the shape across a number of fixtures.
Key frame shapes are similar to a chase but you can spread the sequence across fixtures (Section
7.2, p146).
To use Pixel Mapper, save fixtures to a group, select the group. Use Layout Editor to set the real-
world layout of the fixtures. Then use Effects Editor to create effects on the pixels. (Section 7.6,
p158 ).

1. Quick Start - Page 19
TIMINGS
All times (cue times and fixture attribute times) are stored in the programmer and are saved
when you store a cue.
To edit times in the programmer before saving, press the <Times> button (previously labelled
<Set> on Quartz/Titan Mobile/Sapphire Touch/Tiger Touch and <Next Time> on Pearl
Expert/Tiger Touch mk1).
For chases, speed and fade can be set with wheels A and B when the chase is running.
To edit times in a saved cue, at top level menu press [Edit Times] then the select button for the
playback. Timing options are set from softkeys.
[Fixture Overlap] sets each fixture to fade in sequence (100%=all together, 0%=fixture waits for
previous one to complete).
[Attribute times] sets individual fade times for different attributes.
[Fixture order] changes sequence for shapes and Overlap. (Section 9.5, p209).
CUE LISTS
Cues may be stored in a Cue List which allows a full show to be run from a Go button. C
can be included using Autoload. Cue lists can run in tracking or non-tracking mode, set from
[Playback Options].

1.4 PROGRAMMING PALETTES

Set up the attributes to be recorded. If attribute is the same for all fixtures of one type (e.g.
colour), only one fixture need be set up and palette will be “shared”.
Press <Record>, <Palette> (See also Quick Record below).
Use [Set Mask] to choose attributes to record/exclude. If you are storing in a palette touch
button the mask is automatically set.
Press a grey handle button to store (except on the main playbacks), or touch a button in one of
the Colours/Positions/Gobos windows. (Section 6.1.2, p128).
To
recall palette, select fixtures, select recall mask using Attribute Bank buttons, press palette
button.
To set a legend, press [Set Legend] then the palette’s button. Press [Picture] to draw a picture

window is masked for only position attributes).
BUSKING WITH PALETTES
To fade palettes when busking a show, select fixtures, type fade time on the keypad then recall
the palette (you have to do this each time). If no fixtures selected, palette will recall to all
TitanUniversal_v10_1_d.doc 13 April 2017
Page 20 – 1. Quick Start
applicable fixtures (called a Quick Palette. – Quick Palettes do not go into the programmer so
don’t use when programming).
To set fixture overlap, type 0-100 then press [Set Overlap], then recall the palette.
To set a fade time for all palettes, press Palette then [Master Time]. (Section 6.5, p138).

1.5 DMX / NETWORK SETUP

The console can output up to 16 universes of DMX (called DMX Lines) which may be routed to
the XLR sockets on the console or over Ethernet (The Titan One dongle is limited to a single
universe.) By connecting further Titan Network Processors (TNP) to the network using TitanNet,
you can control up to 64 universes.
Multiple consoles can be linked by Ethernet to provide a multi-user system, or to provide tracking
backup (Section 12.6, p255).
Switch to System mode (hold <Avo>, press <Disk>), press [D
Select a Node on the left (where the DMX is going to), click the blue arrow. On the right, select
the DMX line it will be fed by. The ‘i’ buttons set properties for Nodes/Lines. (Section 6.5, p282).

2. ABOUT THE CONSOLES

This manual is a reference guide to all the functions of Titan consoles.
We explain things in the order you’re most likely to use them, so we start with how to
set up the console, then look at patching lights, controlling lights and how to program
cues.
As this manual covers all types of console, this section has details about each individual
console design in turn; where the controls are and where the connections are.

2.1 SAPPHIRE TOUCH

Preset playbacks

Touch screens
Playback faders
Programming and setup controls
The Sapphire Touch has four main control areas:
The two Touch screens contains fixture, palette and group select buttons. They also
shows legends for the playback faders and shows the current menu page and softkey
buttons on the top right of the right hand screen.
The Playback faders select and control cues and programs
The Preset playbacks are used for patching fixtures or for additional playbacks.
The Programming and setup controls configure and program the console and the
macro/executor buttons allow storage of frequent key sequences, screen layouts,
groups or programs.

The main controls
The Workspace windows on the touch screens contain touch buttons for fixtures,
palettes, groups, playbacks, macros and more. You can also set fixture attributes and
show information windows.
The System display area of the touch screen is the nerve centre of the console and
shows you what is going on. This part of the display shows various screens of
information depending on what you are currently doing.
The Menu Softkeys (labelled A – G) are used to select control options. The options
for each key change depending on what the console is doing. Softkey commands are
shown in the manual with square brackets like this: [Edit Times]
The Preset Playbacks at the top are used to patch fixtures, and store and play back
cues or chases. The Preset Page Select buttons in the centre of the faders let you
change to a different page.
The Macro Buttons store frequently used sequences of keypresses which can be
replayed with a single button press. Playbacks can also be stored here. The display
immediately above the buttons shows legends for the buttons

Control wheels Attribute information Attribute select buttons
Function buttons
The Control wheels are used to set control values (attributes) for the fixtures, and to
set chase speeds and fades. The touch screen above the wheels shows information about
the attributes being controlled.
The trackball controls pan and tilt of fixtures, and can also be used to control the
mouse pointer for the screens.
The Numeric keypad and other control buttons are used to enter values and change
controls on the console.
The Function buttons are used to carry out functions such as storing cues, copying,
patching, saving to disk, etc.
The Attribute select buttons are used to select which attributes of a fixture (e.g.
colour, gobo, pan, focus) are going to be controlled using the Control wheels. The
buttons have lights on to show you which attributes are active. The bottom (red) button
allows you to locate fixtures, which sets them to a known start position while
programming.

The main controls
The Workspace windows on the touch screen contain touch buttons for fixtures,
palettes, groups, playbacks, macros and more. You can also set fixture attributes and
show information windows.
The System display and menu area of the touch screen is the nerve centre of the
console and shows you what is going on. This part of the display shows various screens
of information depending on what you are currently doing.
The Menu Softkeys (labelled A – G) are used to select control options. The display
next to the buttons shows what each one will do. The options for each key change
depending on what the console is doing. Softkey commands are shown in the manual
with square brackets like this: [Edit Times]
The Mini screen displays additional workspace windows. The four rotary encoders
act like normal handles and can be allocated as masters or playbacks. Pressing the
encoder is like pressing the blue button on a handle.
The Macro Buttons store frequently used sequences of keypresses which can be
replayed with a single button press. Playbacks can also be stored here.
The Master fader controls the overall output of the console. You will normally have
this set at Full. The DBO button allows you to blackout the whole console.

The Playback faders are used to store and play back cues or chases. The Page
Select buttons let you change to a different page of playbacks. The touch screen
above the faders shows information about each playback. The Additional playback
faders in two banks of 15 allow you to store more cues and chases, or store palettes,
groups, or fixtures. Each bank of 15 has separate page select buttons and displays above
the faders show what they are.
The Control wheels are used to set control values (attributes) for the fixtures, and to
set chase speeds and fades. The touch screen above the wheels shows information about
the attributes being controlled. Press the Window Scroll Button to switch the
wheels into scroll mode – this is used to move a selection box around the screen when
editing.
The Numeric keypad and other control buttons are used to enter values and change
controls on the console.
The Function buttons are used to carry out functions such as storing cues, copying,
saving to disk, etc. These buttons have lights on to indicate when they are active.
The Attribute select buttons are used to select which attributes of a fixture (e.g.
colour, gobo, pan, focus) are going to be controlled using the Control wheels. The
buttons have lights on to show you which attributes are active. The bottom (red) button
allows you to locate fixtures, which sets them to a known start position while
programming.

DMX and MIDI
All the connections required for the console are found on the back panel. There are 8
DMX outputs on 5-pin XLR, MIDI in/out/thru on 5-pin DIN, two desk lamp sockets,
four Ethernet sockets from the internal Ethernet switch, an Opticon Duo optical
terminal for fibre network, a DVI connector for external monitor, three USB sockets,
SMPTE input, audio input on 1/4 inch jack and remote trigger terminal on 1/4 inch jack.
The Panel reset switch may be pressed to restart the front panel electronics if something
odd happens with the switches and faders. The main processor will continue running but
the DMX output will be interrupted until the restart is completed.
The UPS battery disconnect switch cuts off the power to the console when it is running
on UPS, in the unlikely event of a complete lock up that can't be recovered by holding
down the power switch.
Using the battery disconnect switch will also power down the inbuilt
network switch (TNS). Be aware of this if you are running from a
backup console connected via the network switch.
The Arena console has adjustable legs to angle the console for easier operation. Lift the
rear of the console and press the Leg Release button at each side to set the leg to the
desired height. Make sure you support the rear of the console when adjusting the height.
