Exporting Files

Hello,

 

 

How do I export all show files and magic sheets from my ION Console to the Software on my Computer?

 

 

 

Thanks!

  • Magic sheets are stored in the show files, not as separate files.

    Exit the main program to the shell (File> Exit, not File > Power off Console), then click on the Settings button in the shell.

    Then click on the Maintenance button, which opens a window with a couple of options:

    • Backup Show Archive will copy the show files to a USB drive
    • File Manager will allow you to copy individual show files from one location to another.
  • Put a USB drive in the Ion.
    Exit to the shell.
    Click Settings, then Maintenance, then File Manager.
    Open the USB drive folder in the right pane.
    Select all files under D:\ShowArchive (you can use shift&left click)
    Click "Copy>"

    It takes a couple seconds for the files to show up in the right pane.

    Put the USB drive in your computer and use Explorer to drag your show files into Documents>ETC>Eos>ShowArchive (This may be different on a Mac)

    Magic sheets are part of the show file so they are automatically part of the export.
