About Fan
Fan provides the ability to spread parameter and timing values in a range across a channel
selection set and have those values be evenly spaced. Fan is applied by channel selection or group
order. By default, fan operation is from the start channel.
On Eos, [Fan] is a hardkey. When [Fan] is pressed after a channel selection, the softkeys will
repaint to the following fan styles:
• {Center} - The middle channel in the order is set as the start and will remain unchanged, and
the first and last channels will change in different directions. The level wheel will decrease the
lower number channels and increase the higher number channels. {Center} only affects the
level wheel.
• {Reverse} - The selected channel order is reversed before applying the fan.
• {Mirror} - The middle channel in the selected order is used as the starting channel and the first
and last channels in the order are the end channels.
• [5] [Thru] [1][0] [At] [1][0] [Thru] [3][0] [Fan] {Mirror} [Enter] - sets channel 1 to 30%,
2 to 20%, 3 to 10%, 4 to 20%, and 5 to 30%.
• {Random} - The selected channels are put in a random order before fan is applied.
• {Repeat} - The number of channels that are fanned before the pattern is repeated.
• [1] [Thru] [1][2] [At] [5][0] [Thru] [7][0] [Fan] {Repeat} [3] [Enter] - sets channels
1,4,7, and 10 at 50%, 2,5,8, and 11 at 60%, and 3,6,9, and 12 at 70%.
• {Cluster} - The channels are put into collections, which contains channels with all of the same
value.
• [1] [Thru] [1][2] [At] [5][0] [Thru] [8][0] [Fan] {Cluster} [4] [Enter] - sets channels 1
through 3 at 50%, 4 through 6 at 60%, 7 through 9 at 70%, 10 through 12 at 80%.
Fanning Parameter Data
Fan values can be adjusted with either an encoder or via the keypad. To adjust the fan values with
an encoder, select the required channels and provide a baseline, if necessary, followed by [Fan].
If no value is entered, the current values will be used. When using encoders to adjust fan, it is not
necessary to specify the parameter to be fanned. This is determined by the encoder used.
• [1] [Thru] [5] [Fan] [Enter] - selects the channels 1 through 5 and puts encoders and level
wheel into fan mode.
• [1] [Thru] [5] [At] [5] <0> [Fan] [Enter] - selects the channels 1 through 5, sets a start level
of 50% and puts encoders and level wheel into fan mode.
• [1] [Thru] [5] [Fan] {Mirror} [Enter] - selects the channels 1 through 5 and puts encoders and
level wheel into fan mode with mirror style.
Fan From the Command Line
A level or time command that uses [Thru] or a list of references is a command line fan command.
To adjust the fan values from the command line:
• [1] [Thru] [5] [At] [1] <0> [Thru] [5] <0> [Enter] - sets channel 1 to 10%, 2 to 20%, 3
to 30%, 4 to 40%, and 5 to 50%. This is the default fan adjustment and the [Fan]
command is not necessary.
• [1] [Thru] [5] [At] [1] <0> [Thru] [3] <0> [Fan] {Mirror} [Enter] - sets channel 1 to
30%, 2 to 20%, 3 to 10%, 4 to 20%, and 5 to 30%.
N o t e : The [Fan] key is not necessary unless a fan style other than the default is needed.
