4.5.6 Macros
Macros are subroutines programmed into an Intelligent Fixture by the
manufacturer that can be executed by sending certain combinations of DMX
Channel levels to the Fixture.
One such subroutine will reset a Cyberlight, for example. Pressing the
Macros option gives you a menu of any Macros available, and selecting a
Macro from the menu sends the DMX code to selected Fixtures.
4.6 Inverted Channels
Sometimes it may be useful to Invert a channel. This will mean that when the
Fader is down the channel will output at full, and when the Fader is at full the
channel will output 0%.

Inverted have an ‘x’ after them.
