Preset Operation 
Figure 60 - Preset Faders
The Solution desk has 48 preset faders which control 24 dimmer channels in 
Two Preset mode or 48 dimmer channels in Wide mode. 
The Solution XL desk has 96 preset faders which control 48 dimmer channels 
in Two Preset mode or 96 dimmer channels in Wide mode. 
The configuration and operation of the PRESET FADERS and the A MASTER 
and B MASTER faders is determined by the operating mode of the desk, the 
WIDE and PRESET CONTROL keys. 
The Solution and Solution XL desks default to WIDE Mode operation.  
You can switch the desk to operate into TWO PRESET operation using the 
TWO  PRESET  (WIDE  MODE)  key  on  Special  Page  1  of  the  MFKs  or  by 
holding down the SHIFT key and pressing the PRESET CONTROL key. 
The FLASH MODE key, which can be found on Special Page 1 of the MFKs 
determines the operation of the CHANNEL FLASH buttons. 
Crossfade Time - To enable timed fades there is an internal Fade Time that is 
applied when crossfading between scenes in both Two Preset and  Wide 
modes.  This internal fade time can be found and adjusted on Special Page 1 
of the MFKs, labelled Time.

Set the A MASTER and B MASTER faders to zero.
