3. Direct access

There is constant direct access to the single functions of the scans. Any
function can be controlled for a number of scans simultaneously. The LED´s in
the Scan Selection block determine, which of the 16 scans will be affected.
The "CLEAR" button beside the "SCAN SELECTION" block clears the selection,
the "INVERT" button inverts the actual selection.
"CLEAR"-"INVERT" selects all 16 Scans.
As long as the OPTION button is held down, the lower display button on the
left side changes between the SINGLE and MULTI mode.
SINGLE: Only one scan can be selected at once. All other scans will be
deselected automatically.
MULTI: It is possible to select more than one scan at a time to be
controlled simultaneously.

3.1 Scan groups and brightness fader

Combinations of scans, which are mostly used, can be stored and recalled as
groups. In the same time, the brightness master underneath the group buttons
are masterfaders for the brightness of this combination of scans.
STORE
...and simultaneously press...
If you accidentally release the STORE button before pressing a group button,
press two times QUIT to return to the TOP MENU.
Group buttons, when pushed during standard running mode, always overwrite
the actual scan selection.
To have one or more of the scans lighting the stage, at least one of the group
brightness faders has to be up. Even during movement initialization there will
be no beam on stage as long as all group brightness masters are at zero.
The function "MASTERS ALL 100%" at the SETUP menu will set all master
faders to full on. This makes sense during playback of synchronised shows
but should be switched off during standard operation (white background).
SCAN Selection
