Desk Lock [Intensity/Color/Position/Shape]:
When an attribute is Desk Locked, that attribute's values are frozen or 'parked'.
Pressing the Release button will deselect the light, but the attribute will remain at the
frozen level, and the letters "DL" will appear at the bottom of the light's cell in the Fixture
Grid. Although the frozen values are not included in any cues or memories
subsequently recorded, if a new value is set for the attribute, that value will be included.
For example, if the theater's house lights are Desk Locked at 60%, then
released, those lights will remain at 60% and will not be recorded in subsequent cues.
In the Fixture Grid, the house lights will be shown as deselected, with zero intensity. The
bottom of the light's cell will be marked "DL". If those lights (while marked 'DL') are
given a level of 40%, that 40% value will be included in any record operation.
Desk Lock and Unlock can only be set from the console.
Desk Lock Light:
Available only from the Intensity tool. Freezes all attributes of the selected
light(s). Individual attributes of the light may be changed and included in future cues or
memories, as described above.
Tech Lock [Intensity/Color/Position/Shape]:
Tech Lock may only be set using the neato™ iOS app, available from the Apple
App store. Allows you to remotely freeze, or lock, specific attributes of a fixture. For
example, applying Tech Lock to the intensity of a fixture will allow refocusing while other
work proceeds.
The console can always override a Tech Lock, and restore direct control, by
touching the unlock icon under the Tech Lock tool.
Default [Intensity/Color/Position/Shape]:
Sets the selected light's attribute to the default value. The default results are
dependent on the light and will be recorded in any subsequent record operations.
Release [Intensity/Color/Position/Shape]:
Releases changes made since the last RECORD action, to the chosen attribute
of selected light(s).
Advanced Release is an attribute-specific equivalent of the general Release
button. Allows the selective discard of the changes made to a light, unlike the general
Release button which discards all changes made to the light. For example, allows you to
discard changes to a light's color while keeping the new position the light is using.
