The XY Cross Fader is now configured for 1-
scene preset operation.
Note that in the Cross Fader Display the CUE has
been set for X as Scn 1 (Scene 1). The X Fader
will operate by physically sliding it up or down, so
the fade times are MAN (manual). Manual Cue
action does not have a TYPE and cannot be as-
signed a screen NAME, so their slots remain
blank. With the XY Fader in the down position
(above the [Stop/Rev] key), the LEV (level)
should be blank for the X Fader. In 1-scene op-
eration, the Y Fader is not active and can be ig-
nored.
For the purpose of this discussion, only Fade
Handles 1-24 will be used as all 2-scene/1-scene
Preset versions of the Bijou contain a minimum of
24 Fade Handles. But in 1-scene mode of opera-
tion, the lower row of Fade Handles extend
(double) the channel count with manual Fader
handles. So, if you have a Bijou 24/48 in 1-scene
operation, the Fade Handles will control channels
1-48 (note the silk screened numbers between
the Faders and the bump buttons).
GRANDMASTER
To see set levels on stage, the Blackout switch
must be OFF (LED OFF) and the Grandmaster
faded to its full position (Figure 46). Except for
Parked dimmers, the Grandmaster is in propor-
tional control of all Channel/fader outputs from
the control console. It can be used to do fade to
black Cues for set changes and for blackouts at
the end of a scene. At this time, the Grandmaster
is turned to its full position.
