Snap After. An example of this would be if you want the colors to change after the fixture moves in a cue
then, that is called Snap After.
Xfade (Cross fade). An example of this would be if you want the colors to change as the fixture is moving in a
cue, then that is called Xfade.
To make your choice, move the cursor to the right of the fixture number by using the "-Å" and
"Æ+" button.
Then press 0 for XFADE, 1 for SNAP B, or 2 for SNAP A.
Remember that you can do this for all channels in the fixture.
Modifying the Submaster faders dimmer output level, press the number 8 from the keypad and the
display screen changes to
MAX DIMMER VALUE
FIXT 01 - 127
Here you can change the maximum value of dimmer output on the submaster fader. This is very useful when
you have a dimmer channel, which does more than control just the dimmer. For example, you can have dimmer
channels that also control the lamp being struck On or Off.
There would be nothing more annoying than raising the submaster and watching you fixtures dim up and then
suddenly plunge into darkness as the correct dmx value to turn off the lamp was reached! Then of course, with
some fixtures, you can be sitting around for 10 minutes waiting for them to cool down before you can restrike
the lamp. A double hit!!! So to overcome this you can use this submenu to change the maximum dmx value the
submaster fader will reach when it is at the top of the fade. Using the "-Å" and "Æ+" buttons move the
cursor to the fixture number and choose the correct number. Then use the "-Å" and "Æ+" again to move to
the DMX value and choose the correct value using the numerical keypad for the fixture you have.
Copy Fixture.
This allows you to copy fixture entries. It is quicker to use this than to say go back and forth to the library to
enter the same fixture 10 times. It is also great when you have custom fixtures. The display screen read:
COPY FIXTURE 01
TO FIXTURE 02
The "-Å" and "Æ+" buttons can be used to navigate the cursor to change the fixture numbers. So that, for
example the display could read:
COPY FIXTURE 15
TO FIXTURE 18
Once chosen the Enter button must be pressed and a confirmation of “DONE” is given.
