3.3 The Highlight/Group key
This key has two functions:
activating fixture groups
localising fixtures
Activating fixture groups:
There are two different ways of working with the group function: Press the Highlite/Group
key (LED is lit). Now you can activate fixture groups that have been previously stored on
the fixture faders. Press the flash-key located below the corresponding fader. If the
master fader and the fixture fader are raised, the fixtures integrated in the corresponding
fixture group are lit.
In order to flash the moving heads of a fixture group, press and hold the Highlite/Group
key (LED is not lit) and simultaneously press one of the flash-keys located below the
fixture faders. Then release both keys again.
Now flash the just activated fixture group by positioning the fader on the zero value and
pressing the flash-key below the group fader.
Localising fixtures:
In the highlight mode, the GROUP key allows quick and easy localisation of fixtures. If you wish to employ
the programming aid HIGHLIGHT, proceed as follows: press and hold the HIGHLIGHT key and select a
fixture from the Fixture-/PAR Selection by pressing the corresponding key. The DMX values of the
channels speed, gobo, color, prisma and frost of the selected fixture are set to 000, whereas the values of
shutter and dimmer are set to 255. PAN/Tilt, moving patterns, iris and focus remain unchanged. The
fixture now shows an open, white beam of light. The corresponding LED is flashing. For deactivation,
press and hold the HIGHLIGHT key and simultaneously press the fixture key with the flashing LED.
Release both keys and the Highlight function is deactivated.
The Clear key deactivates all activatedcfixtures (LED goes out).
The Invert key inverts all activated fixtures.
The key combination Clear – Invert activates all fixtures.
