Setting-up Procedures
Defining the number of Reserved HTP Channels
By default the first 24 Desk Channels are exclusively reserved for use by
the Channel Faders and Flash Buttons.
If required, you may reserve additional blocks of 24 Channels (up to a
maximum of 240) by altering the ‘Number of HTP chans’ parameter on the
Default Set- up Screen 1 of the Set- up Menu.
To access this parameter from the Root Menu, select [Setup]
[Defaults]. (For further see page 13 and page 94).
IMPORTANT NOTE
You should set the maximum number of HTP Channels before auto-
patching any Lamp Channels, since this value also defines the first
available Channel for Lamp control when using the [Auto Patch] function.
Controlling HTP Channel Levels
To choose the Page of Channels to Control...
Press one of the Channel Page Buttons to choose which range of
Channels to assign to the Channel Faders and Flash Buttons.
To assign Channels in the range 121 – 240, press these buttons in
conjunction with the shift button as follows:
Shift + 1– 24 for Channels 121 – 144
Shift + 25– 48 for Channels 145 – 168
Shift + 49– 72 for Channels 169 – 192
Shift + 73– 96 for Channels 193 – 216
Shift + 97– 120 for Channels 217 – 240
The shift button LED will be lit to show that you have the higher range
selected.
To set the level of a Channel (currently zero)…
If the Channel is already at zero (i.e. its flash button LED is off),
ensure that the fader is fully down.
Move the fader to the desired level.
To adjust the level of a Channel (currently above zero)...
If the Channel is already set to a level above zero (i.e. its flash
button LED is on), move the fader to match the current Channel
level.
When both the Channel and fader are at the same level the button
LED will go bright and the fader will now take control of the
Channel level.
Move the fader to the new level.
To set all Channels on the current Page to zero level...
Press the red clear button.
All flash button LEDs will now turn off to show that all Channels
(not only for the currently selected Page) are at zero level.
Return all of the Channel Faders to their zero position.
