Multi Function Keys (MFKs)
The Multi Function Keys are arranged in 4 rows of 5 keys with a graphical LCD above
each row of keys. The brightness and contrast of the LCDs can be adjusted as required.
Each Multi Function Key contains a red LED. These LEDs are used to indicate which
fixtures, groups etc. are selected depending on their current function.
Pressing and releasing one of the Mode Keys changes the MFK’s to that page and the
control wheels follow (when appropriate). The MFKs remain in that mode until a different
Mode key is pressed.
Pressing and holding down a Mode key temporarily changes
all the MFKs to that function.
Selecting an MFK will apply that MFK but the MFKs will return to the previous MFK mode,
when the Mode key is released.
For example – Press and release the FIXTURES key. The MFKs change to fixture
selection keys. Select a number of fixtures. Press and hold down the COLOUR key. The
MFKs change to colour palette selection keys (while the COLOUR key is being held
down). Press one of the colour palette MFKs to apply the colour palette to the selected
fixtures. Release the COLOUR key and the MFKs return to being fixture selection keys.
