[Blind] {Palette} [Enter] - pressing this will display the first recorded palette of the selected
type (Intensity, Focus, Color or Beam) in blind or return to the last palette of this type
viewed in blind.

Viewing Palettes From Blind
While in any blind mode, when no channels are selected, you can enter a palette from the
command line or direct selects. This will take you into blind channel mode for that palette.
•
{Color Palette} [n] [Enter]
You may also step through the available palettes using [Next] and [Last].
Editing in Blind
The following are representative methods used for editing palettes in Blind:
•
[2] {Iris} [At] [Enter] - removes the current parameter value from channel 2.
•
[1] {Iris} [5] [0] [Enter] - selects channel 1 and sets iris value to 50.
•
[2] [Copy To] [5] [Enter] - copies the information from channel 2 to channel 5.
•
[6] [Recall From] {Focus Palette} [1] [Enter] - recalls the values for channel 6 from Focus
Palette 1 but not the reference.
When editing in Blind, it is possible to remove an instruction from any palette by selecting the
channel and parameter and pressing [At] [Enter] or {Make Null} [Enter].
[Recall From], [Copy To], Move To (accessed by pressing [Copy To] [Copy To]), and {Replace
With} may be used to create and edit palette data. See About Advanced Manual Control (on
page254) .
Note: While editing palettes in blind, hitting [Recall From] [Recall From] will put
[Recall From] [Palette] on the command line.
Editing Palettes in Spreadsheet View
Blind Spreadsheet view shows a range of palettes along the Y axis and channels/channel
parameters along the X axis. Viewing palettes in spreadsheet view is useful when you want to
compare data between palettes. While in blind, press [Format] to access the spreadsheet. See
Spreadsheet (Blind Only) (on page40) for more information.
After selecting a palette, you may use the [Next] or [Last] keys to move through the list or you
may select the exact palette from the keypad. You may also select a range of palettes to edit at
once. You can make changes to the palette(s) by selecting channels and altering parameter
values. In addition to normal editing functions, you may also use the following commands in this
view: [Copy To], {Make Absolute}, {Make Null}, Move To(accessed by pressing [Copy To] [Copy
To]), and {Replace With}.
