Submasters
A submaster is an analog 0-10 V controller you can use to
remotely adjust (override), in real time, the dim and color
construct parameters for selected fixtures. You can define up
to 12 submasters and control them using one or more analog
controllers.
The Studio Color LCD controller supports mixing binary
presets with submasters; however, the same channel cannot
serve as both a submaster and a binary preset at the same
time. The submaster takes precedence over the preset.
If want to mix submasters and binary presets, you should
assign submasters from the top down in order (for example,
channel 12 first, then 11, then 10, and so on) to simplify the
binary preset addressing scheme because binary preset access
begins with the least significant bit (left to right in binary).
Figure 6-3. The least significant bit in binary is the
leftmost digit.
