SmartFade ML v3.0.1 User Manual

Patch Independents

Independent buttons

IND 1

and

IND 2

provide two outputs separated from all other controls.

They are intended to operate devices such as smoke machines, tab tracks, cue lights, etc.

•

SOLO

does not affect these outputs.

•

The state or result of the 2 independent outputs is not recordable.

The Default Patch

SmartFade ML defaults to the last outputs in DMX universe 1 for the independents.

IND 1 = DMX 511

IND 2 = DMX 512

This is easy to remember and provides immediate control with two outputs. It is also

possible to create a custom patch by assigning

any

DMX outputs to the independents. This

is done in the Patch. They are indicated in the patch as channels i1 and i2.

See “Patch by

Dimmer” on page 20.

See “Patch by Channel” on page 21.

Set up Independents
