MAIN DISPLAY
The main part of the screen
always
shows the fixture intensities (cyan bargraphs) at the top, a
message area in the middle and the status of the playbacks and masters at the bottom. The
bargraphs are laid out in a similar fashion to the maXim faders. Their intensity levels are shown in
tens
on the side axis of the display and in
units
inside each individual bar. The “Fixture Intensity”
levels are shown prior to the patch.
The contents of each playback is shown in the “TYP” row by
a symbol and colour. The colour is repeated in the bargraph.
In this example;
Playback 1 is empty.
Playbacks 2 to 5 contain scenes (orange).
Playbacks 6 and 7 contain chases (green).
Playback 10 is a stack memory (magenta).
The page number that the memory is recorded in is shown in
the “PGE” row. This may be different to the current page due
to a “page freeze”.

o
