Zero 88 SIRIUS 250, Operator'S Manual

Page: 16 / 119

Preset Mode
Introduction
In PRESETS ONLY all effect and
memory functions are disabled,
offering a completely manual two
preset system. The Presets are
patched to the outputs as determined
by the fixture data (see the section on
Assigning Fixtures in Desk Set-Up on
page 5-7). The Brightness channels
are active, each controlling an
individual fixture 48 on the Sirius 500
(or 24 on the Sirius 250).
At turn-on the latest takes precedence
(LTP) channels are static at their home
(default) values, as defined in the
Fixture Data Files. If these fixture
attributes have been changed in RUN
mode, on returning to PRESETS ONLY
the new value is retained.
The desk must have fixtures allocated
to the desk channels. The default is 48
(or 24) single channel generic lamps. If
any other fixture types are to be used,
the Desk Set-Up procedure must be
followed, see the section on Modifying
the Set-Up on page 5-9.
A scene can be set up on PRESET A
or B using the individual channel
faders. The MASTER A and B faders
can then be used to manually
crossfade between scenes whilst still
under the overall control of the GRAND
MASTER, or a timed crossfade can be
made using the PRESET
CROSSFADE.
The green channel lights always show
the actual output of each of the 48 (24)
Brightness channels. WIDE mode is
not available.
