MagicQ User Manual 46 Version 1.3.0.0
You can locate individual attribute types by holding one of the Pos, Col, Beam or All buttons and
pressing LOCATE. Only attributes of that type are located (All does Intensity only).
6.17.2 Single Mode
Pressing NEXT HEAD, PREV HEAD or SINGLE enters Single mode whereby only one head from the
selected heads is operated on at a time. When Single mode is first entered control is given to the first
selected head – i.e. the first head the user selected after no heads were selected. Note that if the heads
were selected using a group then the first head will be the first head that was selected when the group
was recorded. Single mode is indicated by a LED lit on the SINGLE button.
In Single mode changes made by the encoders or through selecting Palettes only affect the one head that
is being controlled. The head is indicated by a * by the head number.
Once in Single mode, the NEXT HEAD and PREV HEAD buttons are used to transfer control between
the selected heads. Pressing the ALL button returns the head control area to the default mode whereby
all selected heads are controlled.
In Single mode, Locate only affects the one head that is being controlled.
6.17.3 Odd/Even
Odd/Even mode is similar to Single mode except that instead of only a single head being controlled,
half of the heads are controlled. Odd/Even mode is indicated by a LED lit on the ODD/EVEN button.
Pressing ODD/EVEN selects the odd heads. Pressing NEXT HEAD or PREV HEAD toggles between
the odd and even heads. Pressing the ALL button returns the head control area to the default mode
whereby all selected heads are controlled.
6.17.4 Highlight Mode
Highlight mode is used in conjunction with Single mode and Odd/Even mode. There are two possible
modes of operation depending on the setting in the Setup Window of the "highlight defaults Col, Beam"
option.
If "highlight defaults Col, Beam" is set then all the attributes of the heads that are being controlled to be
set to their default values except for the Position attributes. If Single mode or Odd/Even mode is in
operation then only the subset of the selected heads is highlighted.
If not set, then it causes the intensities of the selected heads to be reduced except for the one (or ones in
Odd/Even mode) that are being controlled. Highlighting of the controlled head(s) makes programming
of positions much easier.
When in Highlight mode the LED on the HIGHLIGHT button is lit - pressing the HIGHLIGHT button
again or the ALL button returns the head control area back to the default mode.
6.17.5 Fan Mode
The FAN button enables a different mode of operation of the encoders whereby instead of encoder
changes being applied to each selected head in a linear fashion, changes are applied in a fan. Positive
