232 Eos Apex, Eos Ti, Gio, Gio @5, Ion Xe, Ion Xe 20, and Element 2 User Manual
[5] {Iris} [5] {Zoom} [6] [5] {Edge} [5] [Enter] - sets channel 5 to an iris value of 50%, a
zoom value of 65%, and an edge value of 50%.
Note:
Pressing [Shift] & [Encoder Paging Key] will place the associated parameter
onto the command line for numeric entry
Using [At] [/] [/] will place the direct DMX value on the command line. For example, [1] [At] [/]
[/] [2][3][9] [Enter] would put channel 1 at DMX value 239.
You can also set a channel's parameter levels with the DMXvalue by using [/][/].
[1] {Pan} [/][/] [2][5] [Enter]
You can add or subtract from the DMXvalue by using [+] or [-].
[1] {Pan} [/][/] [+] [5] [Enter]
[1] {Pan} [/][/] [-] [7][5] [Enter]
Adjusting Parameters Using + and -
[+] and [-] can be used to adjust parameters from the command line. When using [-], you will
need to preface the command with [+] if you want to remove from the current value.
Example:
[Channel List] {Pan} [1][0] - sets to 10 degrees.
[Channel List] {Pan} [+] [1][0] - adds 10 degrees.
[Channel List] {Pan} [-] [1][0] - sets to -10 degrees.
[Channel List] {Pan} [+] [-] [1][0] - removes 10 degrees.
Setting Non-intensity Parameters with the Encoders
For more information about the encoders, see
Encoders (on page121)
.
Encoders provide a quick method to adjust current values for non-intensity parameters.
On Eos Ti and Eos, the bottom two encoders always control pan and tilt functions. The four
vertical encoders are pageable using the encoder page buttons near the encoder LCD. On Eos,
the five encoder page buttons are: [Custom], [Color], [Shutter], [Image], and [Form]. On Eos
Ti, the six encoder page buttons are: [Custom], [Intensity], [Color], [Shutter], [Image], and
[Form].
On Gio, Gio @ 5, and IonXe, the four horizontal encoders are pageable using the encoder
page buttons directing under the encoders. The six encoder page buttons are: [Intensity],
[Focus], [Color], [Shutter], [Image], and [Form].
Form, Image and Shutter are subcategories within the broader parameter category of Beam.
Custom - includes intensity and intensity MSpeed.
Color - includes all color mixing controls (CMY, RGB, HS), as well as scrollers, color
wheels, and color effects.
Form- includes parameters that affect the quality or size of the light output, such as
edge, zoom, iris, IMF, frost, etc.
Image - includes anything that drops into the gate, such as gobos, effects wheels, etc.
Shutter - includes all of the framing devices for the luminaire.
