effects, non-intensity moves, or marking.)
Selected channels
There are three Flexichannel modes, which can be used along with the Flexichannel states:
Cells off (displays only the master channels for multicell fixtures. Master channels will display
with a "." after the channel number to indicate that they have cells hidden.)
Masters Off (displays only the cells for multicell fixtures)
Partitioned (displays only those channels defined in the current partition)
Note: The multicell fixture views can be used in combination with other flexichannel states.
Note: You can use [Flexi] & [.] to quickly toggle cells on and off.
In flexi, selected channels (including the last channel selection) are always included in the view. Gaps
in channel numbers are indicated by a vertical line between the channels where a gap in numbering
occurs.
To change flexi states in the Live/Blind display, press [Flexi] to cycle through the views listed above.
When [Flexi] is held down, the softkeys change to represent all of the available flexi states and
modes. You can select the desired flexi view from those keys.
[Next/Last] can be used to select the next or last channel in the current flexi state.
[Thru] can be used to view only channels in the current flexi state (except for selected channels) as
long as either the first or last channel in the [Thru] range is included in the current flexi state. To
include channels not in the current flexi state, [Thru] [Thru] can be used.
View Channels
You may select specific channels to appear in another flexichannel state called “View Channels”.
This state does not exist until you select channels to view. After view channels is activated, it will
appear in the rotation of flexichannel states when [Flexi] is pressed.
To select channels to view:
1. Select channels on the command line (do not press [Enter]).
2. Press and hold [Flexi].
3. Press {View Chans}. The “View Channels” flexi state will be created and the channels you
selected will be visible in it.
The channels you selected will be visible in this flexi state until you select other channels and press
{ViewChans} again. At any time, you can access the last channels you defined for this state by press-
ing [Flexi] until this state is visible.
To redefine the selected channels in the state, simply follow the steps above again.
Flexichannel with Timing
You may also engage a “Channels with Timing” flexichannel state by pressing [Flexi] & [Time]. This
will display all channels that have discrete timing in the current cue and will remove channels without
discrete timing from view.
