Fixture Attribute Values; Emptying The Programmers "Content - Philips Strand Lighting Quick Start Manual

QuickStart Guide

Fixture Attribute Values

Without Values
Figure 34 shows how the programmer appears when fixtures are selected without values assigned in the programmer.
They are still outputting values set by cuelists or their default values set in the library.
With Values
Figure 34 illustrates how the programmer appears when fixtures are selected with values assigned in the programmer.
The programmer takes precedence over cuelist output for the attributes with values in the programmer. However,
these values would not be recorded.
Modified (Touched) Values
Figure 34 shows how the programmer appears when attribute values are modified (touched) in the programmer. The
programmer takes precedence over cuelist output for all attributes with values in the programmer. As soon as values
are "touched" (indicated by red background color of the corresponding cell) they can be recorded.

Emptying the Programmers "Content"

In order for all playbacks to re-gain control over the fixture attributes contained in the programmer, the programmer
needs to be cleared out. This happens in three steps with each press of the [CLEAR] key.
The first press of the [CLEAR] key will un-touch all values, however they are still in the programmer overriding the
playback. The second press of the [CLEAR] button will remove all values from the programmer and playback values
will be output again. The third and last press will unselect all fixtures that were selected.
Note: In case you accidentally cleared your programmer content, press [SHIFT] and [CLEAR] simultaneously to
revert to the previous values.
