•
AUDIO SENS
As you may have guessed, this allows you to set the sensitivity of an incoming audio signal when
using the external audio trigger port.
•
LOCK
Allows you lock out the controller’s memory to prevent overzealous audience members from messing
around with your show information. You are also able to prohibit the alteration of Stage Focus as
well. It would be a crying shame if someone were to alter your Stage Focus just before a show.
•
RECORD TIME
This is used for the recording of MACROS. When set to “YES” the macro will record in real time.
So the button presses that you make will be recorded in the actual time that it takes you to press them.
When set to NO, you will have to enter the start and end times of each step in the macro.
•
MOUSE SPEED
This adjusts the sensitivity of your external tracking device from 0 (slowest) through 10 (fastest).
•
MOUSE SWAP
Your tracking device should have at least 2 buttons on it. One of these buttons will move your light
beam in its coarse mode while the other will let you move it in it’s fine mode without having to press
the FINE button on the controller.
•
FOOTSWITCH
This function is linked to the EXTERNAL TRIGGER jack on the back of the controller. When set to
GO it will accept an external trigger that will step through the Cues one by one. When it is set to
KILL a signal from the external trigger will activate a D.B.O. (dead black out), which will shut off all
of the light beams. This is mainly used in nightclub venues where law requires the fire alarms to be
linked to the entertainment lighting system. By triggering the fire alarm the fixtures will shut off
allowing for less confusion during an emergency.
•
TRIGGERS
This display allows you to configure the triggering of Cues, Chase, Macros, and Hotkeys via either
the DMX input or MIDI note information.
Triggers
TRIGGERS: Cue: 3 5 ---
F1 Stop all Chase: 2 14 D#0
DMX: Norm Macro: 1 1 C0
MIDI: Norm Hotkey: Ált+Z DMX
Triggers are explained in detail on page 62.
•
SCREEN DISPLAY
This display makes it possible for a mouse/trackball to work either the external monitor or the
fixtures. Without it you’d be pointing and clicking a screen and screwing with the fixtures all at the
same time. The result is you would go nuts and the lighting plot would go out the window! (No
window’s pun intended!!). See Monitor section on page 46 for further details.
