Colour Palettes  
The desk provides a set of standard colour palettes. 
The desk generates an auto palette for each colour available on every fixed 
colour wheel in the fixture. These palettes are labelled with the stock colour 
names as supplied by the manufacturer. 
Beamshape Palettes 
The beamshape palettes generated by the desk are based on the gobo wheel 
and shutter parameters of the fixtures as follows: 
  Gobo Wheel(s) – An auto palette for each Gobo present on each gobo 
wheel in the fixture. 
  No  Gobo  –  This  auto  palette  sends  all  the  „Gobo‟  parameters  to  their 
default values. 
  Shutter - Two auto palettes (Shutter Open and Shutter Closed).
