Chapter 3
Groups are collections of frequently used fixture selections. Groups can be combined and manipu-
lated like all other selection sequences. Dlite supports 108 groups. 60 groups are operator defined,
24 generic system generated groups, and up to 24 groups for devices.
Dlite automatically creates fixture groups according to the patched devices. Groups that are auto-
matically generated by the system cannot be edited or updated. They are, however, automatically
updated when fixtures are deleted from or added to the patch.
