76 Chapter 6 Adding moving lights to the show
Working with fixtures
Following are some principles to keep in mind when setting fixture
attribute levels.
• If a fixture has a strobe attribute, that attribute must be set above zero
so that the light can be seen.
• The intensity attribute is selected by default unless you select an
attribute. Use this as a shortcut method to set fixture intensities. For
example, set the intensity of three moving lights on stage by pressing
[Stage] [S8], Fixture, [1] [thru] [3] [Full].
• If you wish, you can assign attribute levels without using the Fixture
Box. For instance, if a fixture is patched to channels 1 through 20, you
can set the levels of channels 7 and 8 as follows: press [Stage]
[Channel] [7] [And] [8] [At] [5] [Enter].
• If you are working with fixtures directly but don’t want the Fixture Box
on the screen, press [Clear] to remove it. The encoders remain active
when the Fixture Box is cleared. You can clear away the Fixture Box
even in the midst of a lengthy command sequence without altering
the results. For instance, set the intensity of fixtures 1 through 3 to
full and clear away the Fixture Box in one command sequence as
follows: press [Blind] [S8], Fixture, [1] [thru] [3] [Clear] [Full].
