Pressing [Rem Dim] again releases all channels from rem dim mode and restores the stage to its
previous state. Using the [Next] and [Last] buttons releases the current selected channel from
remainder dim mode and sets its intensity to zero, while selecting the next or last channel and
continuing rem dim operation.
Example:
Assume channels 5 through 9 are selected and set at an intensity level of 50% and
channels 10 through 15 are selected and set at an intensity level of 70%. Select
channel 9 and dim the remaining channels.
[9] [Rem Dim] [Enter]
•
Channel 9 is set at an intensity level of 50% and all remaining channels are dimmed to
zero.
[Next]
•
Selecting [Next] changes the channel selection to channel 10 which is set at an
intensity level of 70%, the level set in the previous state, and all remaining channels
including channel 9, are dimmed to zero.
[Rem Dim]
•
Pressing [Rem Dim] again will return all channels to their previous levels.
[Rem Dim] can be used in groups including the use of [Next] and [Last] buttons to progress
through the channels within the selected group.
Example:
Assume you have group 1 selected (includes channels 1 through 10) with an intensity
value of 50%, group 5 selected (includes channels 11 through 20) with an intensity
value of 70%, and group 7 selected (includes channels 21 through 30) with an intensity
value of 100%
[Group] [1] [At] [5] [Enter]
•
[Group] [5] [At] [7] [Enter]
•
[Group] [7] [At] [Full] [Enter]
•
Select only Group 1 and dim the remaining Groups using the [Rem Dim] feature.
[Group] [1] [Rem Dim] [Enter]
•
Channels 1 through 10 are selected with an intensity value of 50%, and all remaining
channels are at a 0% intensity. You may progress channel by channel through the
selected group (Group 1, channels 1 through 10) using the [Next] or [Last] key. Each
press of the [Next] or [Last] key cycles you through only the channels of the selected
group.
Pressing any other key terminates the [Rem Dim] mode and leaves channels at their
remainder dim value.
You can set the dim level for all remainder dim commands in Setup (See
page 141)
. When set to a value other than zero, all rem dim commands will bring intensity to
this level instead. However it won't bring an intensity up. For example, if the rem dim level in
setup is set to 50%, [Rem Dim] will drop any value above 50% to 50%, but not add intensity to
any channels below 50%.
It is possible to override the dim level temporarily by specifying a level after the [Rem Dim]
command.
[Rem Dim] can also be used to exclude channels from a submaster or cues during a [Record].
