• DISABLE THE MOVING FADERS, By default this option is not activated. The faders of the control windows
will move with the DMX levels of each channel. Enable this function could affect the computer perform-
ances.
• LIGHT BEAM ON, Activated by default. When you create a new scene, all the fixtures selected in the group
window will be set-up in their CENTRE position with their beam OPEN. You can see if the DMX line works
fine. This option uses the libraries. A good library will set-up the lights automatically and you will save
some time while programming. Disable this function and all the new scenes will have all the channels to
Zero DMX values. You will need to turn on each light for your programming.

mode could be controlled and the channels will not consider the selected item.
