OK, I'm pretty tech savvy. Most people turn to me for help. But dang.. The Logic that went into this thing sometimes makes me really wonder. I'm sure there was a method to the madness. I have designed hundreds of databases, rebuilt many and each time I have to figure out the logic path. Presently I am trying to figure out the Logic tree on this thing.. Lets just say it's not very intuitive.

Anyway.. I am having trouble getting the Vortech Control PAB to show it's menu. I have mine plugged in to the last PAB port on my powerbar (dang these things are big) chain. I added the unit in the system software. However the Vortech Menu isn't showing up like I saw in @Ditto 's posting. Either I missed a step or something is off. Likely I screwed up..

When you went to the system menu to add the pab device did the vortech controller come up on the list?

Can you show the window?
 
Sigh...... OK never mind the Vortech menu has suddenly appeared. Honestly have no idea what caused it to appear. I have a dedicated Laptop on my P4 and had to start it up to go find the answer and print a screenshot. During that time I had to also disconnect the USB cable to the P4. Once I got the laptop up and running, plugged in the USB cable to connect to the P4 and opened QCC the menu option was there now. Ugh.... Mind you when I had this trouble it was yesterday and I had rebooted everything at least once. I'll just chalk it up to Computer gremlins... (picture me in a Gremlin suit)

Thanks anyway @Ditto.
 
@Ditto
Is the Vortech menu supposed to show up in the Ipad App? I’m not seeing it.
