Libraries and Palettes

Libraries and Palettes enable you to quickly recall frequently used parameter values when recording
Cues and Groups. The parameter values are divided up in to six categories: Position, Dimmer, Color,
Gobo, Beam (Iris, Frost, etc.) and Xtra (Prism, Speed, etc.).
Although the methods to apply Libraries and Palettes are similar, there is a fundamental difference
between the two: Libraries are user-programmed whereas Palettes are pre-programmed. When
Libraries are updated, the Cues and Groups that they are used in will update also. Palettes do not
allow for updating, they are only used for selection of parameter values.

Recording a Position Library

Position Libraries can include position parameter values of one, several, or all fixtures. They are
recorded by selecting and editing the position of each fixture that will be included in the library.
Follow below to record Position Library 1.
Procedure:
1. Select the desired fixtures,
e.g. [FIXTURE] [1] [ENTER].
2. Adjust Pan/Tilt values with the Trackball.
3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for other fixtures if necessary.
4. Press [POS] [POS] [1] [REC].
5. Press [POS] [POS] [MDFY] [1] [ ] to
name Position Library.

Modifying a Position Library

Follow below to modify Position Library 1.
1. Press [RST] [POS] [POS] [1] [MDFY].
2. Adjust Pan/Tilt values with the Trackball.
3. Press [REC].
Recording Dimmer, Color, Gobo, Beam, & Xtra Libraries
These libraries can include parameter values (Color, Gobo, etc.) about one, several, or all types of
fixtures. They are recorded by selecting and editing the
in the library.
The methods for recording Dimmer, Color, Gobo, Beam, and Xtras libraries are the same. Follow the
example below to record Color Library 1.
Procedure:
1. Select first fixture of a type,
e.g. [FIXTURE] [1] [ENTER].
2. Select Color using Encoder Wheels.
3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for other fixture types if necessary.
4. Press [COL] [COL] [1] [REC].
