6.5 Utilising gel colours in the Intensity Window

Programming time is significantly improved by making use of the gel colour facility built into the console.

Assigning a colour to each dimmer is quick and easy and then enables the programming of scenes based on

colours. In the Intensity Window the dimmers can be selected on a per colour basis, thus easily enabling the

operator to identify the colour and position of the lamps to program into each scene.

First ensure that each Dimmer has been given a name and a gel colour. This can be carried out either from

the Patch Window or from the Intensity Window.

To name a Dimmer in the Intensity Window, either:

a) Type in the name on the external keyboard and then press the SET NAME soft button.

b) Press SET, then type in the name on the screen keyboard. Then press the SET NAME soft button.

To set a Gel Colour in the Intensity Window, either:

a) Type in the colour number on the keypad. Press the SET GEL soft button. Note that colour numbers are

assumed to be Lee – proceed the colour with a dot for Rosco colours.

b) Type in the colour name (or part of it) on the external keyboard and then press the SET NAME soft

button.

c) Press SET, then type in the colour name (or part of it) on the screen keyboard. Then press the SET

NAME soft button.

Note, you should not press ENTER in any of the above operations as this will try and use the text or number

you have entered to set the level for the fader which the cursor is over.

6.5.1 Programming of Dimmers using gel colours

In the Intensity Window you can filter out faders based on gel colour, head type and head name thus

providing a view of only the data you are interested in at the time.

Use the top three left rotary encoders / soft buttons to page through head types and gel types. The display

will show only the heads and colours that match the selection.

At any time press the VIEW ALL soft button to revert to viewing all faders regardless of head type, head

name and gel colour.

Pressing the ALL TO ZERO and ALL TO FULL soft buttons only affects the faders that match the selected

filter. So for example in order to set all the red lamps to full, page through the gel type till you reach RED

and then press ALL TO FULL.

Remember that although you only view the gel type that you have requested there may be other gel types

that have been previously activated in the programmer. Press CLEAR before starting programming a new

scene.

6.6 Setting levels whilst running a show

The Intensities Window supports two views - the Programmer View and the Presets View. The faders

in each of these views behave differently. In the Programmer View the faders control values within the

1 2 ... 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 ... 138 139
