42.8.6 Highlight mode
This setting determines the highlight mode . The options are "Normal”, “Advanced (highlights/lowlight)”, “Advanced Highlight
only” and “Advanced, no reset”.
In “Normal” mode, the intensities of the selected heads are reduced except for the one (or ones in Odd/Even mode) that are being
controlled. Highlighting of the controlled head(s) makes programming of positions much easier.
In "Advanced (highlight/lowlight)” mode, all the attributes of the heads that are being controlled are set to the highlight values
from the Personality. If Single mode or Odd/Even mode is in operation then only the subset of the selected heads is highlighted
– the rest are lowlighted.
“Advanced Highlight Only” is the same as above, but no lowlighting occurs.
“Advanced no reset” is the same as “Advanced (highlight/lowlight)” but is not cleared when you press CLEAR. Press Highlight
again to reset it.
42.8.7 Fan Mode
This setting determines the fan mode . The options are “Normal” or “No Toggle”. When set to “Normal” fan mode can be entered
and exited by pressing the FAN button. With “No toggle” fan mode is only entered when the FAN button is held down.
42.8.8 Select Multiple Groups
This setting enables multiple to be selected without pressing SHIFT. To deselect all groups press the DESELECT ALL soft button
in the Group Window.
The options are “No”, “Multiple in one Go” and “Multiple always”.
Whens set to “No” only one Group can be selected at one time – selecting a second group releases the first group. Pressing
SHIFT and multiple groups allows multiple groups to be selected.
“Multiple in one Go” allows multiple groups to be selected until a head attribute is changed – then it starts with a new selection
of groups.
42.8.9 Recording to Palettes
The options are “Only selected heads” and “All heads in Programmer”. By default only the selected heads are stored into Palettes
when a Palette is recorded.
42.8.10 Record merge overrides times
By default when the Programmer is merged into a Cue using Record Merge, the times in the Cue are overwritten with the times
in the Programmer. This setting enables this to be changed so that the times in the Cure are not overwritten.
42.8.11 Update Clears Programmer
By default the Programmer is not cleared when the Update button is pressed.
42.9 Keypad / Encoder Settings
42.9.1 Auto enter on keypad intensity set

processed when 2 digits have been keyed in after @ or immediately after FULL.
