Submasters
The ORB desk provides 20 pages of upto 30 Submasters. The
number of Submasters per page is configured in the Desk Setup /
Inputs area of Setup (see page 53 for more information).
Location of Submasters
The default location of a submaster is on the DMX-Input. The DMX-
In socket on the rear of the desk enables you to input a full
universe of DMX (512 channels) and capture these for use in
controlling elements of the desk.
In the Desk Setup / Inputs (Page 53) screen you can configure a
DMX-In address for each Submaster, as well as configuring the
number of submasters required per page (from 0 to 30). It is
important to check these settings are set correctly before
commencing work on submasters.
The Submasters Window
To display the
Submasters Window

displays, hold down the SHIFT key and press SUB.
This window shows information on the current page of Submasters.
Each of the subs has a row in the window. Each of these rows shows
the submaster number and information on the data stored on the
Sub (if any), together with fade times and any special settings.

Recording Submasters
The Channel Data SUB allows you to record fixture parameter
(channel) data, with associated fade times, set up in the
programmer directly onto a SUB.
To assign channel data to a SUB, first set up the fixture parameter
data in the programmer, in the same way as programming a cue,
ensuring that all the required fixture parameters are tagged.
