Introduction

This Quick-Start Guide contains the basic procedures that will enable you to start using your Ventura

1000 Console as quickly as possible. Of course, Ventura offers many more exciting features than can

be introduced here, so once you are acquainted with the basics, you will find more detailed information

in the Ventura 1000 User Guide.
