Storing and Using Palettes 227
The following examples illustrate various methods of selectively storing palettes using [Record]:
[1] [Thru] [3] [Record] [Intensity Palette] [2] [Label] <name> [Enter] - records the intensity data
for selected channels 1 through 3 and adds a label to intensity palette 2.
[Group] [2] [Record] {Beam Palette} [Next] [Enter] - records the beam parameter data for
Group 2 to the next sequential beam palette number.
[-] [9] [Record] [Focus Palette] [5] [Enter] - stores the focus data to focus palette 5, excluding
the group or channels specified.
[1] [Thru] [9] {Iris} {Zoom} [Record] [Beam Palette] [5] [Enter] - stores all zoom and iris data for
channels 1 through 9 to beam palette 5.
[-] [5] [Record] [Beam Palette] [Next] [Label] <name> [Enter] - stores to the next sequential
beam palette, withholding the group or channels specified and adds a label.
Note: When using a selective store, you must specify the channel list to be included or
excluded, identified by the [+] [-] modifier, as part of the [Record] command. Otherwise all
channels with appropriate non-default data will be stored in the new palette.
Note: Selective storing is useful when you are doing a “one-time” selective store action. If
you are recording a series of palettes with only specific parameters, it will save you time to
set a record filter (see Using Filters with Palettes (on the next page)).
Storing Palettes with [Record Only]
[Record Only] is a selective record process that stores only manual parameter data. When used to
record palettes, only the manual parameter data for channels will be stored in the palette. As with
record, filters can further restrict stored data if they are enabled when using [Record Only]. See Stor-
ing Palettes Live (on page225) for more information.
Note: If you use [Record Only] to record to an existing palette, the data will be added to
that palette. The original palette will not be completely overwritten. Only manual changes
will be stored to the palette.
Note: It is possible to [Update] to add specific changes to the record target. See Update (on
page230)for more information.
The following methods can be used to selectively store manual parameter data to palettes using
[Record Only]:
[Record Only] [Color Palette] [2] [Enter]- records only the manual color parameter data to color
palette 2.
[Record Only] [Beam Palette] [5] [Label] <name> [Enter] - records manual beam parameter
data for all channels and adds a label to beam palette 5.
[-] [9] [Record Only] [Color Palette] [Next] [Label] <name> [Enter] - stores manual data to the
next sequential color palette, withholding the group or channels specified and adds a label.
[select channels] [Record Only] [Focus Palette] [2] [Enter] - stores focus palette 2, but only
includes the manual data for the specified channels and parameters.
[1] [Thru] [9] {Iris} {Zoom} [Record Only] [Beam Palette] [5] - stores only manual zoom and iris
data for channels 1 through 9 to beam palette 5.
