Programmer Control - Martin Maxxyz User Manual

P
ROGRAMMER
The programmer controls, located directly below the programmer touch screen, determine what
attributes are displayed in the touch screen and provide a way to control those attributes.
The left four track belts, jog dial and LCD keys are used to control fixture attributes while those
on the right are primarily used to program effects (for information regarding effects, please
see"Effects" on page 166). Using fixture 51, a MAC 2000 Profile, we can see that attribute
groups have loaded into the left LCD keys
Dim/Focus
Pan/Tilt
Color
Gobo
Zoom/Prism
Turning the jog wheel directly below the LCD keys will load the next page of attribute groups, if
any exist. For the MAC 2000 Profile, turning the job wheel will load the Speed/Effects attribute
group.
Turning to the first page of attributes and pressing the "Dim Focus" LCD key and you will notice
that it turns red. This indicates that the Dim/Focus attributes have been loaded on the
corresponding track belts. The color coding for the LCD keys is as follows:
Red
Orange
Green
1.Different fixture types will result in different attribute groups being loaded into the LCD keys. Only those at-
tribute groups appropriate to the fixture will be loaded. If differing fixture types are selected in the programmer
simultaneously, the attributes of the last fixture selected (highlighted in red) will be displayed.
