You can set the dim level for all remainder dim commands in Setup (see {Manual Control}, page
101). When set to a value other than zero, all rem dim commands will bring intensity to this level
instead. However it won’t bring an intensity up. For example, if the rem dim level in setup is set to
50%, [Rem Dim] will drop any value above 50% to 50%, but not add intensity to any channels
below 50%.
It is possible to override the dim level temporarily by specifying a level after the [Rem Dim]
command.
[Rem Dim] can also be used to exclude channels from a submaster or cues during a [Record] or
[Update].
For Example:
Using [Rem Dim] You can modify which channels are recorded in the submaster. For this
example, assume that channels 1 through 10 are at full. You’ve recorded that to submaster
one. Using [Rem Dim], you can modify the record so only channels 1 through 5 are
recorded to the submaster.
• [1] [Thru] [1] [0] [At] [Full] [Enter]
• [Record] [Sub] [1] [Enter]
• [1] [Thru] [5] [Record] [Sub] [1] [Rem Dim] [Enter]
The same works for [Update]. Using the same example, the submaster can be updated to
contain only channels 1 through 5 at full.
• [1] [Thru] [1] [0] [At] [Full] [Enter]
• [Record] [Sub] [1] [Enter]
• [1] [Thru] [5] [Update] [Sub] [1] [Rem Dim] [Enter]
Without the [Rem Dim] command, the submaster would still contain channels 1 through 10
at full.
A [Rem Dim] command can also be used on a selective cue record. It will force any channels not
included in the record, but are tracking forward from a previous cue, to zero.
