==Programming memories==
The Zero88 desk allows you to pre-configure your lighting using memories. Heres how to program a memory:
* Using the Dial or keyswitch, put the desk into Program mode. (shown with red L.E.D on sides of dial / keyswitch).
* Set all the sliders to 0. Zero.
* Pull up the grand master(the very bottom, right slider).
* Pull up the "B" Master (The "presets" fader with the same colour as those of the 2nd top line of faders - red or blue.)
* Make sure you are using the 2nd row of presets for the above instruction. NOT doing this will mean all your states to be programmed won't be programmed!
* Set the required lighting state - fiddle with 2nd row of sliders until all looks good. etc.etc.
* On the lower part of the Desk, to the right of those six faders, there are program memory buttons. use them to select the memory you want to program - (1 to 99).
* are you sure you like that lighting state? OK, hit (gently!) the "program memory" button.
* Job done.
 
==Transferring a memory to a "manual master"==
* In program mode.
* choose the appropriate memory using memory up & down buttons.
* slide fully up, the "manual master" you want to transfer to...
* press that slider's "transfer".
* the memory you transferred's number will appear for that "manual master"'s fader.
* Job done. Test it by leaving all sliders down apart from grand master & that "manual master" - if lights are on, good! if not, try again!
 
 
==Manual==
* stapled together paper manual from Zero88 is ontop of dimmer rack.
* Zero88 have a copy, which is available at http://common.zero88.com/public/files/siriusmk1.pdf
