CONTROL CONSOLE USER MANUAL
CHANNEL SELECT
Overview
When the patch was defined in the previous chapter, each luminaire was assigned to a control channel (refer to "Patch
Overview" on page 48). Selecting the channel will give you control of the luminaire’s parameters in order to build cues
or to store as groups of channels, presets, palettes, etc.
In addition to the methods of channel selection covered in this section, channels can also be selected in the Plan View
and 3D Graphic windows. However, these methods are covered along with the respective topics elsewhere in this
manual:
+ For selecting channels via the Plan View, refer to "Plan View" on page 59.
+ For selecting channels via the 3D Graphic software window, refer to "Using 3D Graphic Window" on page 347 .
Selecting Channels
Channel numbers can be selected or deselected from the Channel Select panel, Channel Select window, or
command-line keypad. When selecting channels, the channels will highlight in the window, on the Channel Select
panel and their respective icons will be highlighted in the Plan View.
From Channel Select Panel
Note: When selecting channel numbers greater than 2000, this can only be done via command-line keypad and
groups, since the Channel Select panel only accommodates 2000 channels in its hard buttons.
