Screen Menus for 12 Channel Control
Main Screen -
This is the 12 channel control mode’s main screen menu.
Information on this screen is as follows…
00 – channel level. Each pair of digits relates to the intensity of
every channel 1 – 12 at a value of 0 – FL.
XFtm – (cross fade time – only works with Hold) this is the rate at
which the console can take the levels of the held cue to zero while
taking the levels of the newly set faders to full. This allows setting
of the default crossfade time for crossfading between scenes using
the Hold function.
<Ms> - this lets the operator know that the console is in master mode rather than slave
mode. With a single 301, this should always be Ms.
Patch – this allows for patching any DMX address 1 – 512 to any channel 1 – 12.
- Cross Fade Time (XFtm)
Crossfade time – the default crossfade time can be changed
here. The setting can be anything from 0 – 99 seconds.
Set the time using the up
and down keys. Then
press Confirm.
