Setting Non-intensity Parameters with the Encoders

For information about the encoders on Eos, see

Encoders On Eos, page 64

, on Eos Ti, see

Encoders on Eos Ti, page 66

, and on Gio,

Encoders on Gio, page 68

.

Encoders provide a quick method to adjust current values for non-intensity parameters. On Eos Ti
and Eos, the bottom two encoders always control pan and tilt functions. The four vertical encoders
are pageable using the encoder page buttons near the encoder LCD. On Gio, the four horizontal
encoders are pageable using the encoder page buttons directing under the encoders.

On Eos, the five encoder page buttons are: [Custom], [Color], [Shutter], [Image], and [Form].

On Eos Ti, the six encoder page buttons are: [Custom], [Intensity], [Color], [Shutter], [Image],
and [Form].

On Gio, the six encoder page buttons are: [Intensity], [Form], [Color], [Shutter], [Image], and
[Form]
.

Form, Image and Shutter are subcategories within the broader parameter category of Beam.

Custom - includes intensity and intensity MSpeed.

Color - includes all color mixing controls (CMY, RGB, HS), as well as scrollers, color wheels,

and color effects.

Shutter - includes all of the framing devices for the luminaire.

Image - includes anything that drops into the gate, such as gobos, effects wheels, etc.

Form- includes parameters that affect the quality or size of the light output, such as edge,

zoom, iris, IMF, frost, etc.

The LCD to the left of the encoders indicates the parameters they control and provides additional
information about the current status of those parameters. Encoder pages populate with parameters
relevant to fixtures in the show patch. When you access a parameter page, controls that are not
available for selected channels are suppressed.

Screenshots in this section are of the Encoder LCD Touchscreen on Eos. The

displays on Eos Ti and Gio may vary slightly.

N o t e :

Flexi encoders can be used to suppress parameters not applicable to the selected

channels.

See “Flexi Encoders” on page 64.
