We’re going to make a suggestion now, which we
think is important when you are starting out with
ZEUSedit: put the help file on top and make use of it
while you are learning the system. Here’s how to put
the help file on top:
1. Press the F1 key on the computer keyboard. The help
file will open.
2. In the help file, click on the Options menu and point
to “Keep Help On Top”, then select “On Top”.
3. Now you can refer to step-by-step instructions in the
help file while performing the steps in ZEUSedit. If
the help file gets in the way, just re-size it, or move it
around, or minimize it when you are not using it.

By the way, whenever you press the F1 key, you’ll
usually get help for the main screen that you are
viewing in the background. Now, let’s get on with the
example help file.
1. Select File, Open, then browse to
c:\Telex\Zeusedit\Setups
and open filename
1studio.zus
.
2. The first thing that displays is a list of available
intercom resources. Skip past this now: click OK.
3. Now click on the Port Alpha button.
4. You should now be looking at the list of names for
intercom ports. A printout of this list is shown in
Table
3. This printout was obtained using the File,
Print command in ZEUSedit. You’ll notice that most
of the “Alpha” names in the list are the same as
names in parenthesis in the studio illustration. There
isn’t a lot of space on the keypanels to display long
names, so these Alpha abbreviations will be used
instead. ZEUSedit also lets you enter a longer
description for reference purposes. When you set up
your own intercom system, you’ll create a similar list
of names for intercom ports by selecting ports and
entering names. (For help on how to do this, press the
F1 key while viewing the port alpha list.) After you
have entered your names, you can print out a listing
and distribute it to keypanel operators.
5. Now you’ve seen where names for intercom ports are
entered. You can use these names when it’s time to
assign keys on keypanels. However, the studio plan
also calls for some names which aren’t in the list: for
example, TAL1, the talent 1 earset. That’s because
