14.1.9 Selecting Fixture X out of Y.
The console offers a built in modulo sub-selection function which will select every Xth fixture out of Y.
The syntax is quite easy: We use [/] for the "out of" part of the command.
In the following example, we are going to select every first fixture out of three:
1. Select fixtures 1 to 12
2. Type [1] [/] [3] [Enter] on the keypad.
3. To select every second fixture out of three, type [2] [/] [3] [Enter]
4. To select every third fixture out of three, type [3] [/] [3] [Enter]
Please note you may also combine the modulo function with more advanced functions:
1. Select fixtures 1 to 12:
2. Type [1] [+] [2] [/] [3] [Enter] on the keypad translates into "Select each first and
second fixture out of three".
Or:
1. Select fixtures 1 to 12
2. Typing [1] [thru] [3] [+] [5] [/] [5] [Enter] on the keypad translates into
"Select each first through third and fifth fixture out of five fixtures".
