The control bar allows fast access to the shutdown command, essential menus, additional displays (in grandMA3 onPC), online help, and At filter.

On console displays, the control bar is hidden on all screens by default. Within the onPC application, the control bar is shown along the left edge of screens 1 through 5 by default. In consoles and the onPC application, the control bar can appear along the left edge of screens 1 through 7.

To show or hide the control bar, tap Show Control Bar in the configure display menu for the desired screen or press the left arrow at the left side of the command line.
