Manual Control 245
You may assign both a highlight and a lowlight preset in setup (see
Manual Control (on
page210)
). Any preset may be used. Channels with only one parameter included in the preset
assigned to Highlight and Lowlight will not reset other parameters back to their default
highlight values (see above).
On a command line with a channel selection, you can use [Shift] & {Highlight} to go into
Highlight mode and send the selected channels to the default Highlight setting. This command
will self terminate the command line.
If you just use {Highlight}, the command line will be cleared.
Lowlight Preset
The {Lowlight Preset}, which is set in Setup> User> Manual Control >Lowlight Preset, is used
to define the behavior of specified but not selected channels while using [Next]/[Last] in
highlight mode. When in highlight mode, [channel list] or [Group] [n] [Enter] [Next] will select
the channel list or group and isolate the first channel.
For example, {Highlight} [Enter] [6] [Thru] [1][5] [Enter] [Next] specifies channels 6 through 15
but channel 6 is the only channel selected. 6 is at the highlight level and 7 through 15 are at
their lowlight levels. Pressing [Next] again will put channel 7 at the highlight level and 6 plus 8
through 15 at their lowlight levels. If there is no lowlight preset, these channels are not
affected.
Temporary Highlight Level
The highlight preset can be overridden by setting a temporary highlight level. Using
{Highlight} [At] [5][0] [Enter] overrides the highlight preset and sets the highlight level to 50.
Non-intensity parameters are not affected and will use the default highlight setting or the
highlight preset.
The temporary highlight level will remain until {Highlight} is pressed again or the channel is no
longer selected.
Highlight/Lowlight Rem Dim
In addition to the highlight and lowlight presets, there is also a setting for {Highlight Rem
Dim} in Setup. See
Manual Control (on page210)
. When enabled and highlight mode is active,
the intensity for all non-selected channels are automatically set to the Rem Dim value
established in setup, if that Rem Dim value is lower than the channel’s current intensity. This
can be used to help further isolate the channels you are working with in Highlight Mode
If you do not wish to enable Rem Dim globally in Setup, you can specify a rem dim on the
command line for temporary use. Rem Dim will use the {Live Rem Dim}, as specified in setup.
See
Manual Control (on page210)
.
[High_Low] [Rem Dim] [Enter]
To temporarily override the {Highlight Rem Dim} option in Setup, you can use either of the
following syntax examples:
[channel list] [Highlight] [Rem Dim] [n] [Enter]
[channel list] [Highlight] [Rem Dim] [/] [n] [Enter]
Sneak
The [Sneak] command (when a destination is not provided) removes manual changes from
selected channels and allows the channels to sneak back to their background states (cue or
submaster instruction, if any).Sneaking channels to their previous state is similar to the
Expression release function, except sneak has the ability to release in time.
