Expression 3 - ETC

Encoder Setup
Level setting controls for Expression 3
In Expression 3, fixture attribute levels may be controlled by wheels,
encoders or by an optional pointing device. All these devices are available
with user-defined assignments on six, selectable pages. For each page,
you can control as many as five attributes with encoders, two attributes
with wheels and two attributes with a pointing device. Generally the
pointing device is used only for pan and tilt attributes, so that means you
can directly control as many as 44 fixture attributes with the encoders and
wheels simply by changing pages.
For each page, attributes are assigned by default to encoders, wheels and
to the two axes of a pointing device. You can change the default
assignments to suit your needs or preferences, such as if your console is
not equipped with a pointing device.
Level setting controls for Expression 2x
Expression 2x does not have encoders or multiple page buttons. You can
have these Expression 3 features, however, by purchasing an ETC
Moving Lights module. This small device, which connects to the Digitizer/
Serial port of your console, also allows you to add a pointing device such
as a mouse to your system. See the section in this manual entitled,
Moving Lights Module, page 323, for additional information about this
option, including installation instructions.
