required page.
Press the Effect MFK to output the data recorded in that effect for the selected

Note – Outputting Effects
When outputting an effect, if a selected fixture is not programmed in the
effect, but there are one or more fixtures of the same fixture type that are
programmed in the effect, then the fixture outputs the value that is
programmed for the first fixture of that type.
Example – Fixture 1 (MAC 250) only is programmed in effect palette 5;
no other fixtures have programmed values in this palette. Fixture 7
(another MAC 250) references effect palette 5. It sees that there is no
value programmed for fixture 7 in this palette, but fixture 1 is the same
fixture type and has a value, so it uses the value stored for fixture 1.
