the bump button, the timing associated with the up/down fades will be used to determine the mark
time. If you move the fader from zero and didn’t mark, the lights will mark in the upfade time
associated with the submaster.

When the non-intensity parameters have been marked using the bump button, the LED on the
button will pulse to show that the parameters have been marked. Pressing the bump button will
then release the non-intensity parameters using the bump button timing. The LED will also turn off.

To toggle a submaster between a “Proportional” or “I-Master” fader:

[Sub] [8] {Fader} [Enter]

HTP vs. LTP

Submasters can be set to be either Highest-Takes-Precedence (HTP) or Latest-Takes-Precedence
(LTP). This setting is applied to intensity only. Non-intensity parameters are always LTP. Element
defaults all submasters to HTP. For more information on HTP and LTP see

HTP vs. LTP, page 236

.

To toggle a submaster between HTP and LTP:

[Sub] [6] {HTP/LTP} [Enter]

Exclusive Submasters

Submasters can be placed in exclusive mode. This prohibits storing the contribution of the
submaster into any record targets. In essence, this acts as a fixed [-] [Sub] [Record] command.

To place a submaster in exclusive mode:

[Sub] [5] {Exclusive} [Enter]

Independent

You can also set a submaster to independent, allowing submaster values to remain unaffected by
other submasters or playback fader instructions. They will, however, still be impacted by manual
control, grandmaster, blackout, park instructions, or other play faders and submasters also on
independent.

Inhibitive subs can not be set as independent.

To set a submaster to independent, press the {Priority} softkey. {Priority} toggles through three
options, Independent, Shield, and No Priority. No Priority is the default. The priority column of the
submaster list display will be blank if set to No Priority.

N o t e :

For channels that have been set to GM Exempt in Patch, Intensity Master control

will not impact the intensity of those channels. See

Attributes, page 68

information on GM Exempt.
