Figure 3: Attribute control
Here you'll have some predefined dimmer values that you can select and change the values in plus and minus 5%
and 10% intervals. You can see that the slider follows the values, and you can use the slider to set a value.
Notice that you can now also use the leftmost encoder to change the dimmer value.
You might want to open a Fixtures view on one of the other screens. On the top right side of screen 2 you should
press the Fixtures button. This will open a Fixtures view on screen 2.
Now press the leftmost encoder. This will open
The Calculator
. It could look like this:
Figure 4: Calculator window.
This also allows you to type a value on the screen. But you can also use some predefined values. On the picture
above there are four buttons: Open , 75% , 50% and 25% .
'Open' is the same as 100% (full open). Pressing one of the four options will close the calculator and put the
selected fixtures at that value.
Align
Until now we have used the keys to spread out values over more than one fixture. But this is actually a function we
call Align. You find out in later chapters that the Align function can be used on almost anything. But for now we only
have dimmer. So try to select fixtures 1 thru 10 (in that order) and then give then all 50%. Please press the
Dimmer button in the preset type bar so we have the dimmer control on the left encoder. Now press the
Align
key once. Now a small information pop-up tells you that you are now in the "Align <" mode. There are five different
modes and we are now going to explore them a little bit. It's important that you keep the same selection order in all
the examples below. With this first mode activated try to turn the dimmer encoder down, notice how the value stays
at 50% for fixture number 1 but is spread out evenly to fixture number 10. It could look like this:
