Console Overview 31
On Element 2, {Rate} is part of the {Fader Control} options. Press [Live] to see the {Fader Control}
softkey. To change the fader page on Element 2, press {Page Subs}. See Paging Submasters (on
page364)for more information.
Grandmaster and Blackout
The grandmaster inhibits all live intensity values. If the grandmaster is set at 50%, all live intensities
will be at 50% of their actual values.
Blackout sets all lighting levels to zero.
If a grandmaster is set to a value other than 100%, a grandmaster button with the set value will be
shown at the top of each display. If blackout is currently on, a blackout button will be shown at the
top of the displays.
Clicking on either button will open a new display which will allow you to turn off blackout and set the
grandmaster to a different level.
Level Wheel
Adjusts intensity for selected channels. It also provides scrolling and zoom functions in various
modes. See LevelWheel (on page175) for more information.
Master Playback Controls
The master playback fader pair is located to the left of the control keypad. The master is a split cross-
fader pair. The two buttons beneath the master fader pair are [Go] and [Stop/Back]. The[Load] but-
ton is located directly above the fader pair and is used to load a specified cue onto the master play-
back.
Encoders
Note: On Element 2, you can access encoder control by using the MLcontrols display. See
Moving Light Controls (on page86) for more information.
Eos and Eos Ti Encoders and Parameter LCD
Encoders and an associated touch screen for control of non-intensity parameters are provided on
the lower right of the console. The two larger encoders at the bottom are dedicated for pan and tilt
control. The remaining four encoders on the right are pageable controls, which are populated on the
LCD with the parameters used in your show.
