General Functions
Master & Black Out function
To get light output (at all), the Master needs to be at full, and the Black Out button off.
The Master fader proportionally limits all intensity outputs. As soon as the Master is faded
under 100% the Blackout button will blink.
The Blackout button instantly sends all intensity outputs to zero. As soon as it is activated
the button will light up.
N o t e :
The Independent channels patched to IND 1 and IND 2 are not affected by the Master
fader or Black Out button unless they are set to “GM” in the Independent Settings.
“Set up Independents” on page 22.
Light output from the intensity faders is also affected by the NEXT button.
Clear
Clear is a very useful button that will bring you back to a “clean” state of the console with
no output. Pressing CLEAR will NEVER erase content - it only brings the fader intensities
to zero. You can press CLEAR to abort any recording function if it is blinking.
• Set all dimmer intensities from channel faders and Stack to zero . . = 2 presses
• Set all memory faders to zero (blackout) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . = 3 presses
• Set sequence faders to zero (blackout) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . = 4 presses
CLEAR is also used in combination with other keys. For example
Bump Master
The Bump Master sets the level to which bump buttons will flash. See Bump Button
functionality for each type of fader mode.
