Setting Non-intensity Parameters with the Encoders

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

The five encoder page buttons are: [Custom], [Color],

[Shutter], [Image] and [Form].
Form, Image and Shutter are subcategories within the

broader parameter category of Beam.

Custom - allows mapping of up to four user-defined parameters on multiple pages.

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 hidden from the LCD.
