Using Manual Control
There are three types of manual control for playbacks:
Cues can be stored with manual timing. When cues have stored manual timing, the default
behavior of the fader is to control those manual values.
Cues can be captured for manual intensity control only. This is possible only when the
associated cue has no manual timing values.
Cues can be manually overridden using the [Man Override] & [Load] feature which captures
all parameter transitions.
In each of these cases, follow time counts down from [Go]. The hang time will be started when the
potentiometer reaches full or when the last parameter reaches its end state from timing, whichever
comes last.
Manual Timing Control
Manual timing can be set for any parameter or group of parameters. The potentiometer is then used
to control the progress of a transition.
For Example:
Assume the active cue contains an instruction to set color at 5 for channel 1.
The pending cue contains an instruction to set channel 1 to color 12 and the color
parameter has a manual time. Press [Go] to activate the cue. Channel 1 color does not
change.
As you move the fader up manually, channel 1 color moves proportionally from color 5 to
color 12. Any parameters with timing will start their moves at the press of [Go] and be
unaffected by the manual control.
To program a channel manual time:
[1] {Color} [Time] {Manual} [Enter] - assigns a manual time to channel 1. This must be
recorded or updated to a cue.
Manual timing can also be set at a cue level:
[Record] [Cue] [5] [Time] {Manual} [Enter]
Manual timing can also be set at a cue category level:
[Record] [Cue] [6] [Color] [Time] {Manual} [Enter]
