buttons.

If you have selected fixtures from multiple groups, you can choose
whether the fan effect works with or ignores the groups. For example
if you have 12 fixtures across the stage in 3 groups of 4, you may
want a fan of light beams spread evenly across the stage, or you may
want 3 groups of separately fanned light beams.
By holding down the Fan button you can select:
• [Ignore Groups] All fixtures are fanned as one large group
• [Fan Group as Fixture] All fixtures in a group take on the same
value.
• [Fan Within Group] Fan runs across individual fixtures in each
group.
Holding down the Fan button also allows you to select the Curve used
for the fan. The different curves allow you to obtain different fan
effects.
Fan mode needs to be used on at least 4 fixtures to give good effects.
If you have an odd number of fixtures, the central fixture will not
change in fan mode.
Press the Fan button again to leave Fan mode. Any effects you have
set will remain in the programmer.
It’s all too easy to accidentally leave Fan mode turned
on and be very confused about why the wheels aren’t
working properly, so turn it off as soon as you have

hold down the Fan button to enable Fan mode. See
section 13.1.3 on page 233.

current value, the midpoint is affected most. This is useful for
