Recalling a Group
Once a group has been recorded then pressing the touch screen for the group will make all the heads in the group selected.
All other heads will be deselected. Use SHIFT to select multiple groups. There is a Setup option to allow the user to default
to selecting multiple groups.
Setting levels for Dimmers
From the keypad you can enter commands such as
1 @ 50 ENTER
1 THRU 4 @ FULL ENTER
It is also possible to use the Intensity Window by pressing the INT button. This window displays a fader for each dimmer
and head patched onto the console. Pressing the slider part of the fader sets the appropriate level. When a fader is moved
from 0 the channel in the programmer is activated – and the fader will turn red.
The Window has 2 views, View Prog and View Preset – faders changed in the Prog View affect the intensity levels in the
programmer and are recorded into Cues. Faders changed in the Preset View are like traditional “one per channel” preset
faders on older lighting consoles – this enables levels on channels to be set without affecting programming. This is
equivalent to “Parking” on other consoles.
The SQUARE OFF soft button enables fast programming of intensities. Using the touch panel select the channels you wish
to have at full and at zero – but don’t bother being exactly accurate with the level of the selection. Pressing SQUARE OFF
finishes the job by setting all channels that are less than 50% to 0 whilst setting channels above 50% to full.
Use the ALL TO FULL and ALL TO ZERO buttons to change the level of all the channels.
Press the CLEAR soft button to clear the programmer.
