Generating Manual Output

Each group of Preset faders has a master control fader and on/off button. The master

for Preset B works in reverse of that for Preset A, i.e. 100% is at the bottom and 0% is

at the top of its travel, for Preset B. The «ON/OFF» buttons work in a similar fashion to

the Grand Master «ON/OFF» button, in that they control whether the output from their

respective Preset group is blacked out (LED off) or not.

Assuming that all the Preset faders are at the bottom of their travel and that the Preset

A master fader is set to a value above 0 and that the «ON/OFF» button has not been

pressed, i.e. the LED is on. Also that the Grand Master fader is above 0 and it's

associated «ON/OFF» button has not been pressed. Moving a Preset fader off of 0 will

produce an output on that channel. If a dimmer unit is connected to the output the

lamp on that channel will light. Increasing the level of the Preset fader will increase the

light level of the lamp. Once the output level increases above a 10% the LED below the

Preset fader will light. Also if the Preset master fader is over 10% the Preset A bank

LED will light to show that the Preset is active. Moving more Preset faders will light

more lamps on the corresponding output channels as well as the LED's below the

faders on the desk.

Once a display of illuminated lamps has been created on the output the level of these

lamps may be varied in several ways.

• By moving each individual fader to vary it's output level.

• By changing the position of the Preset master fader to after the output level of all

the active Preset channels.

• By moving the Grand Master fader to change the output level of the desk.

The action of the master fader is governed by the setting of the manual timer control.

If we consider the movement of the master fader, and call the start position posn. A

and the end position posn. B. If the timer is set to 0 then the output will change in time

with the movement of the master fader. If the timer is set to anything else then the

output will change from the posn. A to posn. B fader setting's in the time set. Whilst the

output is still changing from one setting to the other the RUN A LED above the timer will

flash to show that the fade is still in progress. If the master fader is moved again, say to

posn. C, whilst a fade is in progress then the fade restarts, at the new time setting (if

changed), from posn. B to posn. C.

Note :

If the manual timer control is moved whilst a fade is in progress then the fade will restart

from it's current position to it's final position but will take into account the percentage

complete of the current fade i.e. If the fade was 50% complete and the manual timer

was moved to 18 seconds the fade would take a further 9 seconds to complete.

At any stage the output may be blacked out by using either of the «ON/OFF» buttons,

in the maunal Preset A, manual Preset B or the Grand Master sections. A Blackout

state may also be achieved by moving either master fader to 0. If a blackout is initiated,

by pressing one of the relevant «ON/OFF» buttons, whilst a fade is in progress, the fade

will continue to it's end.
