246 Ion Classic User Manual
If there is no background state from the playbacks, the channel parameters will be set to their
home position. The sneak command follows the sneak timing default established in Setup (see
Manual Control (on page 210)
), unless a timing value is provided as part of the sneak
command.
The playback status display will show a red counter for sneak time. If multiple sneak times are
being used, the most recently fired sneak time will be displayed. For an example of the sneak
counter, see
Indicators in the Playback Status Display (on page 108)
.
The sneak command can also be used to send a channel parameter to a specific destination,
either with or without timing. The following examples illustrate the various methods of using
the sneak command:
•
[channel list] [Sneak] [Enter] - releases manual control, setting parameters to their
background state. If there are current values for those parameters from a playback,
those are the values that will be restored. If there are no values from a playback, the
parameters are set to home (or default) position.
•
[channel list] [Color] [Sneak] [Enter] - sneaks color of the selected channels to the
default or background state.
•
[5] [At] [5]<0> [Sneak] [8] [Enter] - sneaks channel 5 to 50% in 8 seconds.
•
[Sneak] [Enter] - when no channels are selected, restores all channels with manual
values to their background state.
•
[Sneak] [Sneak]- puts {AllNPs} [Sneak] on the command line, which sneaks out all non-
intensity parameters. [Sneak] [Sneak] is a self-terminating command.
•
[Sneak] <Time> [3] [Enter] - restores all channels with manual values to their
background state in 3 seconds.
•
[Select Active] [Sneak] [Enter] - selects all channels with intensity above zero and
restores them to their background state, using default sneak times.
•
[Group] [5] <Color Palette> [9] [Sneak] [Enter] - selects group 5 and sneaks it to color
palette 9 using default sneak time.
•
[Group] [3] [At] <Color Palette> [1] [Sneak] <Time> [7] [Enter] - selects group 3 and
sneaks it to color palette 1 in 7 seconds.
•
[Sub] [4] [At] [5] [0] [Sneak] [2] [Enter] - selects submaster 4 and sneaks it to 50% in 2
seconds.
Note:
When recalling a reference from the direct selects to use with the sneak
command, the sneak command has to be entered before the reference.
•
[Chan][1] [Sneak] {Preset 1}- selects channel 1 and sneaks it to preset 1 using default
sneak time.
•
[Chan][2][Sneak]<Time>[2]{Intensity Palette 3}- selects channel 2 and sneaks it to
intensity palette 3 in 2 seconds.
•
[Shift] & [Sneak] - makes any manual data unmanual. The values will remain but they
will no longer be available for [Update] or [Record Only] operations. When used with an
empty command line, this will affect any and all manual data. When used with a channel
selection, only those channels will be affected.
