Encoder LCD Touchscreen

The encoder LCD touchscreen displays the active parameter category loaded on the encoders, as
selected by the page buttons. Each encoder has an associated control section in the LCD that
provides visual indication of:

• the parameter it controls.

• the current setting (value) of the parameter.

• and the current mode if the encoder controls more than one function.

For Example:

The graphic to the right indicates the encoder LCD

displaying a page of Color parameters for a High

End Systems, Studio Spot 575watt luminaire.

Encoder 1 is controlling Saturation

Encoder 2 is controlling Hue

Encoder 3 is controlling Color Wheel 2.

Encoder 4 is controlling Color Wheel 1.

Encoders 5 and 6 are controlling Pan and Tilt

respectively.

Pressing [Color] again loads the encoders with other color
parameter options when they are available.

Coarse/Fine
Next to the parameter name is indication of “coarse” or “fine”
control. Default is coarse control. You may toggle between
the two by pressing the center of the encoder itself.

• coarse control - provides larger changes for non-

segmented parameters and advances/decrements full
frames for segmented parameters. The encoder is
clutched in this mode, meaning you will feel each frame
change distinctly.

• fine control - provides unlimited, high granularity

control. When used in this mode the encoder is not
clutched, allowing you smooth and detailed control.
