It describes the necessary equipment, how to set it up properly, and what to do if any items are missing or not functioning correctly. Potential issues covered include rigging lights, attaching safety chains, installing gels, patching lights to the dimmer board, checking fuses, replacing bulbs, connecting audio from the mixing desk to speakers, and ensuring the projector is powered on. Assistance should be sought if specific problems cannot be resolved.
