Control/Dimming The Ion and Pr 100

[Bryce Foster]

So I am adapting an old design from another designer. As I'm going through his show file on the Ion and through the cues, the channels are saying Pr 100 or Pr 99 in the intentsity block however the light is at 32%. Does anyone know what this is or how to fix it because of it? Cause I can not see what levels most of my lights are at...

Thanks all,

The console is showing you the value is coming from Preset 100 or Preset 99.

There are several ways (at least) to see the actual values behind Preset 100:

1. Temporary: press and hold the [Data] key. For presets, the [Data] key will show the referenced intensity palette and not the absolute value.
2. Persistent: double-tap the [Data] key.
3. About Channel x [Current Values] can also be used.

ok,
I tried to double tap data but it does not work.
If I want a perminate solution should I just delete the Presets?

Thanks for the help!

Try Shift + Data instead of the double tap.

A permananent solution could be <blind>, cue 1 thru <enter>, channel 1 thru (last channel) Intensity Make Absolute. This will remove the intensity references from the presets without losing their current values.
