Mini Encoder Display

.

Information on what the encoders are currently controlling can always be found in the mini encoder
status display, even when the encoder controls display is closed. This display is found in the lower
left side of the CIA. Use the Parameter Category hardkeys to choose which parameters are
currently available on the encoders.

Some fixtures have more parameters than can be displayed on one encoder
page. The number of. pages for each category is displayed at the bottom of the
Parameter Category softkey. To view the other pages, simply press the button to
advance the pages or hold the button and press a number key to go directly to
the page you want to access.

Locking the Encoders

It is possible to lock out the encoders. To lock out the encoders, press [Escape] & [Encoder Page
Keys]. To unlock, press any of the [Encoder Page Keys].

Encoders in Blind

The encoders and level wheel are disabled by default when in the blind display. Pressing an
[Encoder Page Keys], for example [Color], will enable the encoders and level wheel. When the
encoders are disabled, trackball functionality for pan and tilt will also be disabled.

Flexi Encoders

Holding down [Flexi] and an [Encoder Page Keys], for example [Image], will put the encoders into
Flexi mode. In Flexi mode, any empty locations for parameters not applicable for selected channels
will be suppressed.
