Example:
Assume channels 5 through 9 are selected and set at an intensity level of 50%
and channels 10 through 15 are selected and set at an intensity level of 70%.
Select channel 9 and dim the remaining channels.
•
[9] [Rem Dim] [Enter]
Channel 9 is set at an intensity level of 50% and all remaining channels are
dimmed to zero.
•
[Next]
Selecting [Next] changes the channel selection to channel 10 which is set at
an intensity level of 70%, the level set in the previous state, and all remaining
channels including channel 9, are dimmed to zero.
•
[Rem Dim]
Pressing [Rem Dim] again will return all channels to their previous levels.
[Rem Dim] can be used in groups including the use of [Next] and [Last] buttons to progress
through the channels within the selected group.
Example:
Assume you have group 1 selected (includes channels 1 through 10) with an
intensity value of 50%, group 5 selected (includes channels 11 through 20)
with an intensity value of 70%, and group 7 selected (includes channels 21
through 30) with an intensity value of 100%
•
[Group] [1] [At] [5] [Enter]
•
[Group] [5] [At] [7] [Enter]
•
[Group] [7] [At] [Full] [Enter]
Select only Group 1 and dim the remaining Groups using the [Rem Dim]
feature.
•
[Group] [1] [Rem Dim] [Enter]
Channels 1 through 10 are selected with an intensity value of 50%, and all
remaining channels are at a 0% intensity. You may progress channel by
channel through the selected group (Group 1, channels 1 through 10) using
the [Next] or [Last] key. Each press of the [Next] or [Last] key cycles you
through only the channels of the selected group.
Pressing any other key terminates the [Rem Dim] mode and leaves channels at
their remainder dim value.
You can set the dim level for all remainder dim commands in Setup (see Manual Control (on
page 210) ). When set to a value other than zero, all rem dim commands will bring intensity to
this level instead. However it won’t bring an intensity up. For example, if the rem dim level in
setup is set to 50%, [Rem Dim] will drop any value above 50% to 50%, but not add intensity
to any channels below 50%.
It is possible to override the dim level temporarily by specifying a level after the [Rem Dim]
command.
[Rem Dim] can also be used to remove channels from a submaster or cues during a [Record].
