LOADING GROUPS
To load the attributes of a group into the programmer, press the “Load” hard key followed by the
desired softkey on the Group touch screen and then Enter.1 You can also press and hold the
Load button and then touch the desired Group. When you release the Load button, the group will
be loaded.
All attributes of the selected Group (based on the filters you have selected) will be loaded into the
programmer. If any of those attributes are driven to a level by a cue or submaster, that level
information will be loaded into the programmer. Note that it is quite possible that more than one
cue or submaster may be affecting different attributes of an individual fixture. If this is the case,
then the level information from all the different cues and submasters will be loaded into the
programmer2. You can then make changes as desired and save them to a new group, cue or
preset or merge them into an existing group, cue or preset.
USING “LOAD LOAD”
The Load function also provides a very rapid means of capturing all information for any selected
fixtures in the programmer. After selecting the desired fixtures via main keypad or groups
pressing Load Load will load all attribute information for the selected fixtures into the
programmer.
CAPTURING A SNAPSHOT OF THE STAGE USING LOAD
It is possible to capture the entire output of the console very rapidly and create a “snapshot” of
the current look using the Load function. To do so use the following syntax:
“.” (decimal) 0 Enter Load Load
The “decimal zero enter” command will select all the fixtures in the show and “load load” will put
their current output into the programmer.
LOADING AN INDIVIDUAL ATTRIBUTE
While the Load Options window is useful in loading the contents of a specific attribute group into
the programmer, it is possible to load in a single attribute as well. Follow the steps below to load
a single attribute:
1 With a cue running, select the group “Mac 2k Profile” from one of the Group touch screens.
2 Press the “Dim Focus” LCD key in the programmer key section (if not already selected). Note
that it is important to select the appropriate group before proceeding with the next step otherwise,
that attribute group will be loaded, not the individual attribute.
3 Press and hold the Load key on the keypad.
4 Press the hard key directly below the “Intensity” label on the touch screen.
5 Release the Load key.
1.Alternatively, you can press the following keys on the keypad: Load Group xx Enter. Using the keypad allows
you to use modifiers such as “+,” “-,” and “Thru.”
2.This is sometimes known as “capturing the state” of the fixture(s).
