Version 3 operating system adds whathas just been described. (Outboard fixture customization).
Version 4 operating system adds an effects generator/engine for automatic insertion of circles,
ballyhoos etc.
Version 3 & 4 operating system also have the capability of running the expansion submaster panel for
a CP-100. The expansion panel adds 12 dimmer submasters and 12 regular submasters. This panel
becomes integral to the CP-100. It is not a stand alone unit. In this way, you end up with a single
complete controller not a “hodgepodge” of pieces.
GROUPING FIXTURES
It is possible to put 2 or more fixtures into any given group number. This allows you to access the
features of multiple fixtures at one time. It is also possible to place dissimilar fixtures into the same
group.
i.e.: You can have 3 of your Cyberlights in Fixture Group 1 and then add 5 of your VL6’s into the
same group. When you access Fixture Group 1 and change the color rotary, the first color wheel of
the Cyberlights and VL6’s will begin to increment.
To place fixtures into a group:
1) Press ADD-FIXTURE-x-THRU-y-TO-GROUP-n.
(For example Add Fixture 1thru 12 to group 1).
There are several variations of this command that you are able to use. See the “Command Set”
section of this manual for other options.
To access a Fixture Group:
1) Press: GROUP-n-ENTER
This will display the “Group Features” display. You are now able to use the rotaries to alter the
different features of the fixtures within the Fixture Group.
