Independent 1 and 2 provide two output channels that are separate from the effect of all
other controls. They are intended to operate devices such as smoke machines, tab tracks,
cue lights, etc. IND 1 and 2 are always either full on or full off.
• If the console is patched 1-to-1, IND 1 toggles the state of DMX 97 and IND 2 toggles
the state of DMX 98.
• IND 1 and 2 (indicated as "i1" and "i2") may be patched to any DMX channels in the
same way as other console channels. Custom patching must be performed in Normal
mode. See
• IND 1 and IND 2 are not affected by [BLACK OUT], [SOLO] or the Master fader.

Set individual channel levels using the faders. Use the channel range buttons,
[1-24] and [25-48] (or [1-48] and [49-96]), to access channels as needed.
Press [NEXT]. The [NEXT] button lights up and the faders cease controlling
output so you may set a look without affecting the lights on stage.
Set new levels using the faders. Use the channel range buttons, [1-24] and [25-
48] (or [1-48] and [49-96]), to access channels as needed.
Move the crossfaders manually from bottom to top, press and hold [ ] before
the faders reach the top. The new channel levels will crossfade on stage, and the
previous look will be retained, in blind, for you to fade back into. Once at the top
you may release [ ]. [ .. ] and [NEXT] will continue to blink.
Press and hold [ ] when you want to return to the original look. Continue holding
[ ] while moving the crossfaders from top to bottom. The original look will
crossfade on stage once again. Once at the bottom, you may release [ ], but
you must press and hold [ ] again before moving the crossfaders.
To continue fading between the two looks, repeat steps 4-5 as many times as
needed, making sure to press and hold [ ] before you move the faders to the
top.
When you are ready to fade into an entirely new look, simply move the faders all
the way to the top without pressing [ ].
