PRESET FOCUS A term used to describe a referenced pre-defined state
for an Attribute that can be recalled whenever required
during programming. Each Fixture may be different in
the Preset Focus, and the levels can be edited. This is
how it differs from a TABLE. On Avolites desks each
Preset Focus can be named, and recalled with a single
button press.
PROGRAM Desk mode in which programming functions are
enabled, but System Software is protected. See RUN,
SYSTEM.
PROGRAMMER The part of the desk which contains Channel
information prior to recording.
REDUCTION FADER
Feature that enables the output of a Dimmer Channel
to be temporarily limited to a defined value.

Display.
SCRIPT FILE SYSTEM

controlled by Timecode.

Chase times. See COMPLEX STEP, GLOBAL CHASE
TIMES, INDIVIDUAL STEP TIMES.
