Deleting Channels

It is possible to delete channels in patch. Deleting channels is different from unpatching in that deleted channels cannot be manipulated or have data stored for them. When deleted, the channel numbers will still be visible in the live/blind display, but the channel graphic will be removed from the display.

To delete channels in the patch display, use either of the following syntaxes:

  • [6] [Thru] [1] [0] [Delete] [Enter] [Enter]
  • [Delete] [1] [Thru] [1] [0] [Enter] [Enter]

CAUTION: If a channel with programmed data is deleted, the recorded data will be lost.

[Query] {Unpatched}

To quickly delete channels without addresses in the Patch display, you can use the command [Query] {Unpatched} [Delete]. This will post to the command line all channels without addresses. By pressing [Enter][Enter] you will delete them.

On Element Classic, {Query} is a softkey.
