The On button!

Only turn the desk on or off when all the dimmers are off - the desk flashes everything to 100%, and if the bulbs are cold, you'll shorten their lives... The button is on the back of the desk, on the right.

Master section

• Grand Master
  • overall control of desk, when this is down, nothing comes on.
• DBO
  • It's a flicky switch for cutting everything off
  • Don't play with it - if it breaks in OFF, then you've had it!
• Each row of faders has a master (with matching colour!)
• Flash master
  • when in RUN mode and "flash" is set to flash the buttons under each row of faders cause those respective items to go to 100%
  • The flash master controls the maximum value of the flash..
• Chaser master
  • controls the level of the chase

Programming memories

The Zero88 desk allows you to pre-configure your lighting using memories. Heres how to program a memory:

• Using the Dial or keyswitch, put the desk into Program mode. (shown with red L.E.D on sides of dial / keyswitch).
• Set all the sliders to 0. Zero.
• Pull up the grand master(the very bottom, right slider).
• Pull up the "B" Master (The "presets" fader with the same colour as those of the 2nd top line of faders - red or blue.)
• Make sure you are using the 2nd row of presets for the above instruction. NOT doing this will mean all your states to be programmed won't be programmed!
• Set the required lighting state - fiddle with 2nd row of sliders until all looks good. etc.etc.
• On the lower part of the Desk, there are memory buttons. use them to select the memory you want to program - (1 to 99).
• are you sure you like that lighting state? OK, hit (gently!) the "program memory" button.
• Job done.

Transferring a memory to a "manual master"

• In program mode.
• choose the appropriate memory using memory up & down buttons.
• slide fully up, the "manual master" you want to transfer to...
• press that slider's "transfer".
• the memory you transferred's number will appear for that "manual master"'s fader.
• Job done. Test it by leaving all sliders down apart from grand master & that "manual master" - if lights are on, good! if not, try again!
