With a dimmer or dimmers selected, you can edit various dimmer settings in the property view,
which will display in the CIA. Items with a caret (>) are editable. When multiple dimmers are
selected together for editing, an “*” will show for data that is different between the selected
dimmers.
FDX dimmers will not display data for the following:
Recorded Load
Actual Load
Rack Dimmer Source

•AF Enable
Note:
The System ID number from CEM3 is not currently supported.
Note:
Rack numbers and dimmer numbers need to be unique for Ion to properly
recognize them. For CEM+, dimmers also need to be patched to different sACN
addresses.
Note:
When dimmers are discovered, they are not automatically attached to patched
channels in Ion; you must attach a dimmer to a channel. See “Patching
Discovered Dimmers and RDM Devices” on page 86.
