Show Mode
Show Mode is an operating state in HOLOPLOT Control designed for use during active shows and performances. When enabled, it restricts access to actions that could affect audio output or system configuration, while keeping monitoring and real-time control functions readily accessible.
Configuring Show Mode
Before enabling Show Mode, administrators can define how specific actions behave while it is active. Do this in Settings › Show Mode. Each action can be set to one of three states:
Allowed – the action is available without restriction.
Allowed with confirmation – the action is available but requires the user to confirm before it is applied.
Not allowed – the action is not available while Show Mode is on.
The following actions can be configured:
System Gain
System Mute / Unmute
Master EQ
Solo / Unsolo Beams
Mute / Unmute Beams
Environmental conditions
Preset switching
Processor failover
Sleep / wake up modules
Blocked actions
The following actions are always disabled while Show Mode is active and cannot be configured otherwise:
Pairing and unpairing modules
Rebooting arrays, modules, or processors (main or backup)
Audio stream management and audio routing
Editing network settings
Blinking modules
Driver tests (for X1 Modules)
Uploading and activating projects
System restore
All actions under System Settings

Using Show Mode
Enabling and disabling Show Mode
The Show Mode button is available directly on the right side of the HOLOPLOT Control footer. Any user with access to the interface can enable or disable Show Mode.
Show Mode indicator
When Show Mode is active, a persistent indicator is displayed across all open sessions, regardless of the current view or panel. This ensures that all users connected to the system are aware of the active operating state.
Monitoring
The following monitoring pages remain accessible while Show Mode is active:
Device list
Project Information
Input and output level meters
