Presets in Run Mode
When in Run mode, the preset faders (Preset A) function as highest takes
precedence (HTP) channels. Each channel can be increased in brightness by raising
its appropriate fader (remember that Preset A will be controlled overall by the A
MASTER). The channels can also be flashed, using the Flash Mode set on the LCD.
As the Jester has two pages of channels 1-12 & 13-24 (1-24 & 25-48), the PAGE A
button is used to switch between the two pages. When you switch to a new page of
channels, all the faders reset in software to the level of the presets on that page. In
order to adjust these levels, you must first grab the level that the preset is currently
at. Once the level has been grabbed, you can increase or decrease the brightness
as required.
Submasters in Run Mode
When in Run mode, the submaster faders (Preset B) function as highest takes
precedence (HTP) merge memories. Each submaster can be pushed up, and the
channels in its memory are raised proportional to the level of the fader.
The submasters can also be flashed, using the Flash Mode set on the LCD. As the
Jester has two pages of submasters 1-12 & 13-24 (1-24 & 25-48), the PAGE B
button is used to switch between the two pages.
When you switch to a new page of submasters, all the faders reset in software to the
level of the submasters on that page. In order to adjust these levels, you must first
grab the level that the submaster is currently at. Once the level has been grabbed,
you can increase or decrease the brightness as required. Note that if a submaster
includes a chase, this will automatically be started when you raise the submaster.
Outputting a Chase Memory
1. Use the cursor buttons to select a chase memory to be output.
2. Press the PROGRAM/GO button to initiate a crossfade to the selected memory.
The transition between the current memory and the selected memory depends on
the programmed fade time. You can alter the fade time of the next memory by
moving the FADE TIME control.
3. When the Chase memory is being output, the rate of advance (speed), transition
between steps and direction can be adjusted using various front-panel controls as
described below.
