MagicQ User Manual 203 Version 1.4.9.0
Channels can be added using the Insert soft button and deleted using the Remove Button (press twice to
Remove).
16bit channels are indicated by setting the 16bit coarse and 16bit fine field for the appropriate channels.
For normal 8bit channels both fields should be set to no. The 16bit fine and coarse attributes of a moving
light do not have to be on adjacent channel numbers.
The Instant field specifies whether a channel by default snaps immediately to new values rather than
fading – this is useful for colour wheels and gobo wheels where you want immediate changes.
The Slow Encoder field makes the encoder works more slowly than normal. This is good for attributes
where every possible DMX value represents a different function and therefore only very small turns of the
encoder are required to change function.
The Attrib no field indicates to the console what the function of the channel is and is used in masking,
morphing and cloning. No two channels should have the same Attrib no except for the two channels
comprising a 16bit parameter.
Double click on the attrib field, or press Enter to step through the possible attributes or enter the attribute
number from the tables below.
