116 Eos Family Operations Manual
Status in the Patch Display
Status flags will display on the far left of the patch display to advise you when a channel or address
requires your attention.
A red “!” or yellow “?” will display when there is an error or warning from an RDM, CEM+, CEM3,
or ACN device. See Errors and Warnings (on page141).
Flexichannel Views in Patch
In patch by channel mode, [Flexi] can be used to view only those channels that are currently patched.
In patch by address mode, [Flexi] can be used to view only those addresses that are currently
patched. By pressing [Flexi], you can toggle the view between patched channels/addresses, selected
channels, and all channels/addresses.
Holding down [Flexi] will display the following softkeys:
{Flexi All} - displays all the channels or addresses depending on which view is used.
{Patch} - displays only the patched channels or addresses.
{Selected} - displays any selected channels or addresses.
{ViewChannels} - displays those channels selected for the View Channels flexichannel state.
{Partitioned} - only available when partitioning is enabled. Displays the following options:
Partitioned Channels
Partitioned Patched Channels
Partitioned Selected Channels
Partitioned View Channels
Patching Conventional Fixtures
For patching fixtures, there are two different patch modes: Patching By Channel(below) and Patch-
ing ByAddress (on the facing page). Eos defaults to patch by channel mode. Pressing [Format] while
in the patch display will toggle the mode between patch by channel and patch by address.
Note: When working with conventional devices, you can patch in either mode easily.
When working with compound channels or multiple parameter devices, such as moving
lights, it is recommended to work in patch by channel.
Patching By Channel
In patch by channel mode, [2] [0] [At] [1] [Enter] patches channel 20 to address 1. Pressing [At] will
post address to the command line while patching by channel.
