This is a general show checklist for lighting. Shows may have specific requirements that need to be added to this list.

Your checklist should take the form of a table with a separate column for each show. You should tick off each task as you complete it.

Power up procedure

Turn on the Lighting Desk
Once the program is loaded with your show, turn on the dimmers
Dimmers are located near the wall outside the bio box door.
Turn on all 3 phase outlets. The 3 phase switches are under the plastic cover, lift that up to turn it on.
Now turn on the G.P.O. switches on the left of the dimmers. You should only ever need to turn the bank of switches on left hand side. These power the LED and intelligent lights.
Turn the house light control panel to “0” so Vista can control the house lights

Now do the pre show checks
