Manual Control of Non-intensity Parameters (NPs)

Non-intensity parameters can be set with a variety of controls including the control keypad, buttons
on the central information area (CIA) and the encoders.

Parameter Display

The parameter display in the CIA is populated with only those parameters that are found in the
patched devices. As channels are selected, the parameter display will change to show only
parameters relevant to the selected channels.

The parameters are divided into the following categories: Intensity, Focus, Color and Beam. Each
parameter category is represented with buttons in the parameter tiles. These buttons allow you to
select the entire collection of all parameters within that category. You can also select a single
parameter from a category using that parameter’s touchbutton in the parameter display.

Beam has three subcategories which correspond to the way the encoders are mapped. They are
{Shutter}, {Image}, and {Form}. These subcategories are represented with touchbuttons in the
CIA. Pressing these buttons allows you to select all parameters within those subcategories.

Within the CIA, in the upper left corner, notice the {All NPs} button. When pressed, this collects all
non-intensity parameters for further editing.

Some examples of using parameter touchbuttons are:

[1] {Iris} [5] [Enter] - Places the iris parameter of channel 1at 50%.

[Group] [4] {Zoom} {Edge} [Out] [Enter] - Sends any zoom and edge values for all fixtures

in group 4 to 0%.

[1] [Thru] [3] {All Speed} [At] [2][5][Enter] - Sets all the available speed parameters for

channels 1 through 3 to 25.
