Groups
The Illusion desk provides 20 (30)
user-programmable groups.
Groups can be recorded and then used
when programming channel data in
memories or submasters.
A group consists of a number of
selected channels together with their
programmed levels (eg. Channels 1-5
at 50%).
Groups are programmed and used in
the Channel Data Window as
described in the following sections.
Programming a Group
From the Channel Data Window, the
channel data for the selected channels
can be saved to a group.
When editing a chase, sound to light or
ripplesound memory, the channel data
for the current step is saved into the
specified group.
1.
Use the STEP+ or STEP- buttons
to select the required step (if
appropriate).
2.
Press the SAVE AS button on the
front panel, or right click in the
CDW and select the
Save As
option from the menu. The
Save
As
window is displayed.
3.
Select the
Group
option by
presssing the GROUP button or
select the
Group
tab.
4.
Enter the required group number,
enter a text description of the
group in the
Group Info
field, if
required, then select the
OK
button in the window.
If the specified group is
unprogrammed, the channel data
is saved into the group, and the
popup window is closed.
If the specified group is already
programmed, a warning message
is displayed. Select
Overwrite
or
Cancel
as required.
Using Groups in the CDW
A pre-programmed group can be
added into the channel data in the
CDW as follows:
To set the channels defined in a group
to their programmed levels - enter the
following command:
GROUP <n> @ 100 ENTER
or
GROUP <n> ON
or
GROUP <n> @@
Where <n> is the group number.
To set the channels defined in a group
to a proportion of their programmed
levels - enter the following command:
GROUP <n> @ <p> ENTER
Where <n> is the group number and
<p> is the required proportion (eg 50
would be 50% in double digit
percentage mode).
The Brightness channels programmed
in group n are multiplied by the
specified proportion and copied into
the CDW (they are not mixed in on a
HTP basis).
The Attribute or Scroller channels
programmed in group n are copied
directly into the CDW, replacing the
original channel data.
