MagicQ User Manual 257 Version 1.4.9.0
When multiple slaves are in use then different slaves can control different channels on the rigs. If the
same channel is requested by multiple slaves then the latest selection will take precedence. The show
slave shows the multiple control method in the status bar – e.g. for selected heads it shows “CC-Sel”.
When the slave has no channels under control it shows “CC-None”.
The show master can request all channels at all time using the Setup, View DMX I/O, Multi Prog Select
button. When the show master is controlling all channels then it shows “MCC” in the status bar. When
some channels are under control by a slave console then it shows “SCC”.
