changer, which will cause the changer to scroll through the gel
string. Thus, the setting of the fader determines the color that is
selected.

To assign a console channel to color control, go to the second Colors
page of the Cue Stack menu (select "Colors," then press the right
SCROLL button twice). The display should read "Set Channel Types,"
and below this is a listing of all console channels, and the
assignment of each. Only three channels can be shown in the display
screen at once. To select a particular channel, position the cursor
under the channel number, and use the Up and Down arrows to scroll to
the desired channel, or enter the channel number directly with the
keypad, followed by YES.

Once the desired channel has been selected, positioning the cursor
under the arrow to the right of the channel number will allow the
selection of the channel type. Normally, a channel is set to
"(intensity)" for normal control of lamp brightness. For color
control, the channel can be assigned to any of the 16 color palettes
by scrolling with the Up and Down buttons. At this point, the
channel fader will output only the specific DMX values stored in the
assigned color palette.

Controlling Color Changers Manually

Channel faders can be used to manually control color changers; when a
channel is under manual control, it will not be affected by Color
Scene changes.

To take manual control over a color changer, press the ADD button
under the console channel that controls that changer. The output LED
above that channel will become illuminated. The color output can then
be "grabbed" by holding down the ADD button and moving the Y-scene
fader through the current value of the color output. When the channel
has been "grabbed," the output LED will begin flashing, and manual
changes can be made without holding down the ADD button any longer.
Note that you cannot grab manual control of a color channel using the
X-scene fader.

To release the manual control of a color channel, press the SOLO
button under the channel fader, and the output LED will stop flashing.

Storing Color Scenes

A group of color changer settings may be stored and recalled in a
fashion similar to the Cue Stack scenes. Each group of settings is
called a "color change." The LP-2000 Cue Plus will store 999 color
changes in memory. Unlike normal scenes, with faders controlling the
intensity of lights, color scenes cannot be "piled on." Only one
color scene can be active at a time.

To set up a color scene for recording, go to the Control page of the
