Utility Keyboard Section
The key buttons and the white printing identify this section.
This section of the Pilot 2000 makes special functions such as Extra, Lamp and Reset,
immediately available: these operate directly on the fixtures (switching the lamp on and
off), the intelligent fixtures (remote Reset) and the controls sent to special units such as
smoke machines or centerpieces (Extra channels).
Extra button:
A maximum of 48 channels can be reserved for particular units or functions.
This function allows you to define the DMX channels corresponding to the “extras”, i.e.
those units (normally smoke machines or strobe lights) which operators control directly
(without going through Memory and Program).
When pressed, it gives the access to the Extra Channels.
Lamp button:
It enables the remote Lamp On/Off control of a fixture.
