TO CLEAR CHANNEL LEVELS TO 0%

To set all channel levels to 0%, press [1] [Thru]

[5] [1] [2] [At] [0] [Enter]. This sets all channel lev-

els to 0%. Next, go to the Cue 0 using the [Load]

key. Cue 0 is a default Blackout Cue and can not

be user-modified.

If you plan to return to a Blackout look on stage

repeatedly in your Cue process, you may wish to

record this look as a Cue. This allows you to use

it as prerecorded Cue that operates automatically

via the [Go] button or as a building block for start-

ing new Cues. Many designers record a Blackout

Cue that blacks out the stage but leaves some

running lights or orchestra pit lights on. This is

often recorded as the first Cue of the show so

that the designer can do a “blackness check” as

part of the pre-show dimmer checks.

The second method of clearing channel levels

(which is faster) is to press [Enter]. Pressing this

button makes the command line read ALL AT.

Now press [At] [0] [Enter]. To set all channels to a

level other than 0%, insert a level after the [At]

key and all 512 channels go to the next level.

Also, use [Enter] [At] with the Encoder Wheel to

adjust the overall level of a Cue. Or, use this

function to set all of the channels to the same

level.

REMAINDER DIM

The Remainder Dim function is used when you

want to start setting a Cue from scratch. Using

the [Load] [Enter] function blacks out the stage

which can cause a safety problem or distract the

performers. The Remainder Dim function allows

you to enter levels for a select number of chan-

nels using the recording sequence [#] (channel)

[At] [#] (level) [F2] [Enter]. [#] [At] [#] sets the

channel’s level. [F2] takes all of the other chan-

nels that are up in the preset to 0% or OFF.

[Enter] runs the Cue.

Note: The Rem Dim function has no Effect on the

output of Channel/Fader handles, Submasters, or

Effects that you may have running.
