Using Flexichannel
Flexichannel (use of the [Flexi] key) allows you to view only channels meeting a certain criteria in
the live/blind display, therefore removing unwanted data from view. Flexichannel has several
available states which include allowing you to view only:
• All channels
• All patched channels
• Manual channels
• All show channels (any channels that have data stored in a cue or submaster)
• Active channels (channels with intensity above zero or a move instruction)
• Selected channels
In flexi mode, any selected channels (including the last channel selection) are always included in
the view. Gaps in channel numbers are indicated by a vertical line between the channels where a
gap in numbering occurs.
To change flexi modes in the live/blind display, press [Flexi] to cycle through the views listed above.
When [Flexi] is held down, the softkeys change to represent all of the available flexi states. You can
select the desired flexi view from those keys.
[Next/Last] can be used to select the next or last channel in the current flexi mode.
[Thru] can be used to view only channels in the current flexi mode (except for selected channels
mode) as long as either the first or last channel in the [Thru] range is included in the current flexi
mode. To include channels not in the current flexi mode, [Thru] [Thru] can be used.
View Channels
You may select specific channels to appear in another flexichannel state called “View Channels”.
This state does not exist until you select channels to view. After view channels is activated, it will
appear in the rotation of flexichannel states when [Flexi] is pressed.
To select channels to view:
Step 1: Select channels on the command line (do not press [Enter]).
Step 2: Press and hold [Flexi].
Step 3: Press {View Chans}. The “View Channels” flexi state will be created and the
channels you selected will be visible in it.
The channels you selected will be visible in this flexi state until you select other channels and press
{View Chans} again. At any time, you can access the last channels you defined for this state by
pressing [Flexi] until this state is visible.
To redefine the selected channels in the state, simply follow the steps above again.
Flexichannel with Timing
You may also engage a “Channels with Timing” flexichannel state by pressing [Flexi] & [Time].
This will display all channels that have discrete timing in the current cue and will remove channels
without discrete timing from view.
You may still hold [Time] on Eos or double press [Time] on Eos Ti and Gio to view the discrete time
behind any parameter or category.
The display will remain in this state until you disengage it by pressing [Flexi] again.
