• It’s easiest if you only save one type of
attribute (such as pan/tilt) into each
palette, then you can just leave the
Dimmer attribute button selected when
recalling the palette. If you store a
mixture of attributes, you always have to
make sure that the correct attributes are
selected when recalling a palette, and this is an extra step which
you could do without.
• You can also use the grey Palette/Flash buttons below the preset
faders to apply palettes 1-30. While you hold the button, the top
line of the display shows the legend for the attribute (White,
Green etc). When you release the button, the palette is applied. If
you decide you don’t want to apply the palette, press the Focus
button before you release the grey Flash button.
• You can recall a palette by number, type the palette number on
the keypad and press B [Recall palette].
