Groups
Introduction
The Solution & Solution XL desk provides 400 user definable Groups. Groups
are most commonly used when selecting fixtures and programming data to be
recorded in memories, submasters and palettes.
Automatic Groups - In Setup, there is an option to generate a set of
automatic groups based on the fixture types in the schedule. The desk
generates an All Fixtures group, a group for each fixture type in the schedule,
including dimmers, plus an „odd‟ and „even‟ group for each different fixture
type in the schedule.
User Defined Groups - In addition to the Automatic Groups, you can also
create your own groups of fixtures, eg Floor MACs, Left Stage Movers etc.
User defined groups can be all of the same fixture type or any combination of
fixture types.

soft button contains the following data: Group Number (1-400) and name, if
defined. Unprogrammed groups are indicated by a „*‟ next to the group
number. For example:
