6.10 The Presets
Diagram 6A
The Preset faders are used to set up lighting levels during a show and while
programming Memories and Chases. It is possible to run a show entirely on the
presets but generally these controls are used for recording or to make impromptu
changes to the stage lighting.
6.20 Preset Faders
Diagram 6A, 6B, 6C
There are two rows of Presets faders on the Event. The top row of faders is Preset
1 and the bottom row is Preset 2. These faders can be used to smoothly fade a light
to the desired level. The output level produced by the Preset faders is dependent on
the level of the P1 (or P2) Master and the Grand Master fader.
6C Grand
master
Example:
• Bring the Grand Master and P1 Master faders to 10 (100%).
• Move the Channel 1 Preset fader to 100% and you should see the lights
connected to that channel fade up to full level.
• Now fade up Channel 2 to 5 (50%). Check that the lights connected to
Channel 2 are at about 50% level.
• Finally fade the P1 Master down and up to see how it scales the Channel
Preset faders.
6.30 Flash Buttons
Diagram 6D, 6E
Flash buttons are located below each Channel and Assign master fader. They
perform three functions:
* Flash: The buttons are used to momentarily flash a channel to the level set by
the Add/Solo Master fader. The type of operation of the Flash button depends on
the setting of the Add / Solo Master switch.
* Inhibit: To prevent a channel from appearing in any output, hold the Flash
button down and press the DBO button. Repeat this procedure to cancel inhibit.
6E Add/Solo
When a channel is inhibited, the channel LED and DBO LED flash together.
