For example, using the Maxxyz Demo.scn file and the patch we created earlier, if you were to
select fixtures 51-62, bring them to full and then focus them on the drummer, the programmer
would look similar to this:
You’ll note that while the fixture’s intensity and pan/tilt information is in the programmer, other
information such as color, gobo, zoom, etc. is not included. This means that when you record this
information into a cue, the other attributes will not be affected. If they were at a level before this
cue, they will remain there; if they weren’t at a level, they won’t be given one.
You’ll also note that the number field for fixtures 51-61 are green while it is red for fixture 62. The
number field is color coded as follows:
Blue Fixture is in programmer, but is not currently selected and will be
unaffected by changes made by the programmer keys.
Red Fixture is selected, will be affected by changes made using the
programmer keys, and is the specific fixture displayed in the programmer
controls.
Green Fixture is selected as part of a range of fixtures (i.e. “Fixture 1 Thru 12”)
and will be affected by changes made using the programmer keys, but is
not the specific fixture displayed in the programmer controls.
Dark Green A fixture on a dark green field is one that has been selected, but has been
overridden through the use of the “next/previous” commands. Pressing
“revert to selected” in the Fixture Groups window or reselecting the fixtures
will return the selection to a green field.
