When Delete Step is pressed and the step number is ‘—’, the
letters ‘ER’ (error) are displayed; if ‘NF’ is shown(No Frames),

NOTES (Continued)

*

Page Overlay

When changing from one sequence to the next, Page Overlay
is in operation, so the Effects Master must be put down to 0
and then up again for the sequence change to take effect.
Page Overlay in operation is shown by the Sequence display
blinking slowly.
If Fade Time is in use, the output must be 0 before the
sequence will change.
THIS IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER

*

Effects Speed, Drive and Attack

While an effect is running and the effect is shown in the
Sequence display, Speed, Drive and Attack may be modified
‘live’ as required.
Once either Se or - button is pressed, ‘live’ control is
lost. These controls are then used to set up the next effect. If
the effect that is running is selected (eg. by pressing
Se then -), ‘live’ control is still disabled.

*

Copying Memories to Sequence Steps

They may be copied from a memory or combination of
memories by setting the Memory Master(s) to the required
level(s) and recording the resultant scene onto the step.

HINTS

*

Using a sequential effect as a set of 99 theatre
style memories.

The sequence may be simply used as a set of theatre
memories by setting the Speed knob to manual and the Fade
Time knob to the required crossfade time between memories.
Set the Attack to the lower setting, the triangle wave form.
Pressing the Go button will now crossfade between steps
within a sequence memory at the fade time set by the Fade
Time control. Complex memories may be easily set up using
the standard Memory Masters and then simply transferred to
the sequence memories.

*

Transferring sequence steps to a Memory Master

Scenes may be transferred from an effects step to a Memory
Master by setting the Effects Speed switch to manual,
selecting the appropriate step, setting the Effects Master to full
and Masters A and B to 0. The scene is displayed on the
Output lights and may be recorded onto a Memory Master in
the normal way.
