Preset Focus - Power Line Power Cue DMX User Manual

PROGRAMMING SCENES USING PRESET FOCUS
Preset focuses or position memories allow you to speed up the programming of fixtures into
scenes by linking channels to a library of scenes that you have previously programmed for this
purpose. In the Power Cue DMX this library can contain 46 scenes of the 512 available, i.e. nos.
450-495 and in the scene list these scenes are indicated with a 'p' on the right hand side of the
display. A scene indicated with a 'P' (upper case) is a preset currently being used by a client
scene. Preset scenes are
programmed in the normal way, as shown in pages 24-29. Whenever a preset scene is modified,
all its client scenes are similarly modified. Up to three presets may be used by each client scene.

ed NoLnk, see 8. below.
Client scene channels linked by a previous selection are automatically excluded from any
