is not possible to select the gobo control while a RoboColor II (which has no gobos) is selected as
master. Only one fixture can be master fixture at any time.
Slave fixture (dark red icon caption)
Selected fixtures which are not selected as master are slave fixtures. Slave fixture means that it
follows the master fixtures values when these are changed on the fixture controls. e.g. when 4
Roboscan 918 fixtures are selected, 1 as master, the other 3 as slaves, setting the master to red on
color wheel 1 will automatically set the color to red for all 4 fixtures.
Programming selected fixtures
Once fixtures are selected, they can be controlled and programmed via their respective fixture controls
. Certain programmable effects are cross-fixture type compatible, this means that changes to the
master will also change the slave fixtures even if they are not of the same type as the master fixture.

Next/previous fixture selection
The Next and Previous buttons on the fixture tool bar may be used to select the previous or
next fixture respectively. Selecting fixtures this way is mainly useful during sequence programming
where there is a need to adjust fixtures one at a time. The next/previous functions may also be
assigned to keyboard hotkeys.
Default selection
By default the buttons select the previous or next fixture based on the icon's fixture number. The new
fixture is selected as master while all other fixtures are de-selected. The new fixture selected will
always be next or previous fixture in relation to the current master fixture. If no fixtures are selected,
next fixture will select the fixture with the lowest fixture number, while previous fixture will select
the fixture with the highest fixture number.
Custom order selection
The order of selection may be customized. To open the custom selection dialog, right-click either of
the two buttons, or select the dialog via the Setup -> Preferences -> Previous/Next Fixture
Selection.
Previous/Next fixture custom selection
Enable next/previous buttons - use this switch to show or hide the buttons on the tool bar.
Only select same type as Master Fixture - When enabled, only fixtures of the same type as the
Master fixture will be selected as next fixture.
