Creating multi-part and compound channels

A multi-part channel is any channel that has more than one dimmer patched to it. A compound
channel has multiple profiles patched to it that make up one channel, an example would be a
dimmer with a scroller and auto-yoke. By default, Eos will add a part if you are trying to patch to a
channel that has already been assigned an address.

To patch a multi-part channel in address format:

[5] [1] [3] [At] [8] [Enter]

Assuming channel 8 was previously patched to an address, this will create a part 2 and

address it at 513.

To patch a multi-part channel in channel format:

[9] [At] [5] [4] [0] [Enter]

Assuming that channel 9 is already patched to an address, this will create a part 2 and

address it at 540.

[8] [Part] [2] [At] [5] [1] [3] [Enter]

This will create a part 2 for channel 8 and address it at 513. If you wish to patch by address

while in the channel view, press:

[Address] [5] [1] [3] [At] [8] [Enter]

This will perform the same action as the previous example, assuming channel 8 was

previously patched to an address.

To select multiple parts for editing:

[1] [Part] [1] [Thru] [5]

This is useful for deleting or assigning new addresses to existing parts.

To patch a compound channel in channel format:

[1] [Part] [2] [At] [5] {Type} <scroller profile>

Creates a part 2 for channel 1 and assigns it the selected scroller profile. See
