Playing Back Submasters
Submasters are played back using the DMX-Input. The movement
of a DMX-In channel from 0% to 100% is equivalent to raising a
submaster on the desk.
Submasters page-hold over which means that when you change the
page, any active submasters will stay active until they are released
or lowered.

Flash Button Action
Note: Submaster Flash Buttons functionality only work completely
when using the internal playbacks as submasters. Using DMX-input
relies on the desk which is generating the incoming DMX and so
certain flash type functions may not behave as expected.
If the Flash Mode is set to
Flash
- the corresponding data assigned
to the SUB is output instantly on pressing the key and faded out or
released instantly on releasing the key.
If the Flash Mode is set to
Latch
- The first press results in the ‘on’
action. The second press results in the ‘off’ action. Subsequent
button presses will then toggle between the two states.
