This view also has additional data fields beneath intensity (F, C, B). This information can be
suppressed by pressing and holding [Data] and any of the encoder paging keys (Focus, Color,
Image, Shutter, or Form). Doing so will leave only the intensity field and FCB indicators at the
bottom of the channel.
Multicell Devices
Multicell devices display the channel number broken into decimals, based on how many cells
the device has. Multicell fixtures can be controlled as an entire fixture, individual cells, or a
combination of cells. Parameter data can also be suppressed in the same way as automated
fixtures.
You can use flexichannel modes to hide cells or master channels. See Using Flexichannel (on
page 104) for more information.
When in Flexi Cells Off mode, the master channel will display its own information in the
normal font size, and data indicators will be used for the cells. If all of the cells are at the same
value, that value will display. If the majority of the cells are at the same value, that value will
be displayed with a superscript plus sign. If there is not a majority, just a plus sign will be used.
Note:
A decimal will display at the end of a master channel when flexi cells off is on.
Color Indicators
Eos uses color to indicate the selection state and information about channel/parameter levels.
