Offset - ETC ION Operation Manual

[ N e x t ] a n d [ L a s t ]
The [Next] and [Last] buttons increment and decrement channel selection. If only one channel is
selected, [Next] increments the channel selection to the next sequential channel, while [Last]
decrements the channel selection by one.
Select channel 10 then change the selection to channel 11 using the [Next] key:
•
Channel 10 is selected with a gold outline around the entire channel and the channel
number is indicated in white.
•
Channel 11 is now selected with a gold outline and white channel number while channel 10
is no longer selected.
If there is no specific channel selected when [Next] or [Last] is pressed, channel 1 is selected.
When a group of channels is selected, pressing [Next] or [Last] selects the first or last channel in
the channel list.
For Example:
Channels 11 through 20 are selected:
•
Channels 11 through 20 are still the specified channel list but only channel 11 is selected
for control. You can now sequentially press [Next] or [Last] to cycle through the list. Press
[Select Last] to reselect the entire range.

{Offset} is a feature used to select a range of channels from a broader channel selection. For the
offset feature to function, you must first select a group of channels, then press {Offset}. When
{Offset} is pressed, the softkeys change to the following: {Even}, {Odd}, {Reverse}, and
{Random}. These keys, along with the numeric keys from the keypad are used to create channel
offsets. These channel commands can be combined with group record functions.
The following examples illustrate how offset works:
• [1] [thru] [10] {Offset} {Even} [Enter] - selects channels 2, 4, 6, 8, 10.
• [1] [thru] [2] [0] {Offset} [3] [Enter] - from the selected group, this syntax would select
channels 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19 which is an offset of every third channel from the selection.
• {Group 5} {Offset} {Random} [Enter] - selects all channels in Group 5 and places them in
random order. This selection may be used only temporarily or it may be recorded to a new
Group.
• [1] [thru] [2] [0] {Offset} {Even} {Random} [Enter] - selects all even channels within the
range and puts them in random order.
• {Offset} [4] [Enter] -selects every fourth channel in the current channel selection.
