BUTTON DETAILS
BUTTON DETAILS
Note: The personality in which you have selected your console to operate in will drastically change the way many of
the following buttons work. In the Windows UI personality, pressing the button will pop up a dialog box, whereas in
any other personality, you will engage via command-line syntax. However, the dialog boxes can still be accessed
using the [SHIFT] key.
1. Plus, Minus, @ (At), Full, Out
• [FULL] and [OUT] will set the level of selected channels without having to press [ENTER].
• When editing split up/down times, use [FULL] to highlight the Wait time (start of line) and [OUT] to edit the Fade
time (end of line).
• Use [FULL] and [OUT] in dialog box edit boxes or combo boxes to take the value to its upper or lower limit.
• Use the [/] key to select a range of channels or to specify Wait/Fade times in any time field.
• Use the [BACK] arrow key to clear the command line and deselect any selected channels.
• Use the [+] and [-] keys to enter ranges. For example:
[1] [/] [10] [-] [7] [@] [5] [Enter] sets fixtures 1 through 6 and 8 through 10 to 50%.
[1] [/] [10] [@] [10] [-] [100] [Enter] would set fixtures 1 through 10 to levels 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 and
100% respectively.
2. Arrows
• The arrow keys move the blue box in the Cue List Look view and patch displays.
• To change a value, press the [EDIT] button.
• Holding down the [SHIFT] key and pressing the Up or Down arrows selects a range.
• Once a range is selected, press [EDIT], then type in a new value to change all cells to that value.
• If editing a numeric column (such as Time), after pressing [EDIT] use the level wheel to change the values. If mul-
tiple cells are selected, the values will change relative to each other. In the example below, if the wheel is used to
change the '3' to a '4', the '2' would change to a '3' and the '1' would change to a '2'.
• Holding down [SHIFT] while rolling the level wheel on any numeric field will change the value by 0.1.
• While in Blind Mode, moving the blue box will preview the highlighted cue.
3. Blind
• Press [BLIND] to enter and exit the Blind display.
• While in Blind, the channel grid has a Grey background. You can also see a Green outline around the Blind button
in the channel Grid toolbar.
• While in Blind, moving the blue box with the [ARROW KEYS] will Load cues automatically.
