Do PAs have instructions for products?

I bought several iRadiance - HDR Mesh Lights sets... but it's been frustrating trial and error to figure out how to use it. Does anyone know whether the PA might have a how-to guide somewhere? (yeah, those of you helping on my mirror thread... i'm still fiddling with lights!)

    They are usually very simple to use... you load the set, then use the dome rotation utilities and brightness utilities that come with the set to move the dome until the light come from the direction you want and has the proper strength.

    Ist there anything in particular you have a problem with?

    "dome rotation and brightness utilities that come with the set" <--- I can't find the dome rotation and brightness utilities that come with the set :)  I see a bunch of light options, when i click them it adds a light to the scene... but I can't predict even remotely which light i should use and where i should stick said light to achieve the effect I see on the promo image (say the cover image with the girl's face beatifully lit up).  I was hoping for some documentation that said "to render these promo images that I used to sell you this toy, here is what light I placed where at at what setting".  Here is an example of the product I have :

    PS - rotating the dome to change light setting hasn't occured to me!! what an awesome idea. how do I do that?

    Here is a link to the Readme file for that product. That may have some tips to help you. The Readme file says there are some setup examples in “Light Presets:DimensionTheory:IradianceHDRMeshlights:Volume 2:Setup Examples”. That might be a place to start.
