Eos Operations Manual

Min and Max
{Min} and {Max} are displayed when the parameter is linear, such as a shutter. Use these keys to
set a minimum and a maximum setting for a parameter.

Next and Last
{Next} and {Last} are displayed when the parameter is segmented such as a fixed gobo or color
wheel or a color scroller. Use these keys to increment or decrement in full frames.

Mode
The {Mode} key is provided to select different modes for the encoder wheel such as rotate, index,
or special effects.

When more than two modes are available, the {Mode} key can be pressed repeatedly,

advancing through the various modes. Each mode will display beneath the current

parameter setting.

When only two modes are available, the alternate mode is indicated instead of a

{Mode} key. Toggling that button switches the encoder wheel to the alternate mode.

Flip
The {Flip} button, as displayed in the Pan/Tilt section of the encoder LCD, is used to flip the unit into
its exact same position, but from the other direction.

Multiple Encoder Control

When parameters require more than one encoder for full control, the encoder LCD provides
indication that the encoders are related to each other by name. Typically, additional modes will load
on other pages but will reference the master parameter unique name. If there are multiple instances
of a device in a single channel (such as two fixed gobo wheels or two color wheels, etc.), each
device will load onto separate encoders.
