3 ElahoTouch User Manual
ElahoTouch Overview
ElahoTouch is an all-in-one flush or surface mounted touchscreen that provides control of up to
16 Elaho channels per Elaho space, as well as connectivity with other Elaho control and output
products.
ElahoTouch also provides local control of a full universe of DMX and sACN or Art-Net outputs,
and is an RDM controller for compatible and enabled devices.
The topics found in this manual can also be found on your touchscreen by pressing the
button.
Channels
A channel is used by ElahoTouch to control fixtures. ElahoTouch can control up to 80 channels.
There are four types of channels: an Elaho Zone, a dimmer, a group of dimmers, a device, for
example a color changing or moving fixture.
Channels need to be configured in Patch for there to be output.
Note:
Elaho channels are not patched to a DMX value, instead they communicate over
EchoConnect to other Elaho devices. Only 16 channels can be assigned per space.
Working with Dimmers / Intensity
You can use the touchscreen and select channels directly on the Channel Map. The wheel can
then be used to assign an intensity level.
Channels can be controlled by channel faders, presets, and sequences on the pages.
Selected channels
To make changes to channel values, a channel must be selected. Selection is indicated by a
thick green border around the channel cell on the Channel Map. Selection can happen in a
number of ways:
Touch the channel cell on the Channel Map. Touch the cell again to deselect it.
Touch the color chip at the top of a channel fader. Touch the chip again to deselect.
To deselect all selected channels, use Clear>Selection.
Channel Map
The Channel Map button (located in the Page button menu) displays a topographical map of
channels fullscreen at maximum size. You may select channels on the topographical map for
control. If multiple Spaces are enabled, tabs will appear on the Channel Map to allow you to
choose between them.
