ETC Ion Xe Operating Manual page 91

Note:
Discrete Instance
This setting defaults to Yes and applies to cue lists. When a fader is discrete, it will track other faders
that are running the same cue list, BUT if a fader that it is tracking manually changes to a different
cue list, a discrete enabled fader will not change its content. When set to No (or disabled), once a
fader is in sync with another fader running the same cue list, it will stay in sync when content is
changed. Discrete disabled is noted in the fader ribbon with a link icon.
Size
A fader can be mapped so its content takes up 1, 2, or 3 faders. 1x will take up 1 fader, 2x will use 2
faders, and 3x will use three.
Note:
mapped to 2x or 3x, the top left button will be locked as a load button.
Buttons & Slider
When set to Default Mapping, the button and fader configuration is drawn initially from the cue list
or submaster list properties for that content. If changes are made to that mapping in Tab 36, it filters
BACK to the cue or submaster list and changes any other instances where that content is mapped. If
set to Local, any changes made in Tab 36 impact only that instance of the content. See
erties and
Target List
