Record Filters

Record filters are used to select specific parameter data to store to record targets. When no filters are selected, all parameters can be stored, as appropriate to the [Record], [Record Only], and selective record action used.

When storing show data, applied filters are highlighted and allow the associated parameters to be stored in record targets. When filters are deselected (not highlighted), they prohibit storing the associated parameters.

Note: There is no difference between having all filters selected and having no filters selected (default). In either state, all parameters are available for recording.

Record filters are applied from the CIA using the following buttons: {Filter}, the parameter buttons in the CIA, and the parameter category buttons.

Parameter category buttons can be used to select filters. The following buttons are available below the command line:

  • {Intensity} - enables recording intensity data.
  • {Focus} - enables recording pan and tilt data.
  • {Color} - enables recording color data.
  • {Form} - enables recording beam form data.
  • {Image} - enables recording beam image data.
  • {Shutter} - enables recording beam shutter data.

{Beam}, which comprises form, image, and shutter information, is available above the command line with additional softkeys for individual beam parameters.

To apply record filters by category:

  1. Press and hold {Filter}. The parameter buttons change to display filter selection.
  2. Press the parameter category softkey for the category you want to include in the record target. All parameters in that category will be highlighted and “Filter On” will appear above the softkey.
  3. Release {Filter}. The buttons return to their normal appearance.

In subsequent record functions, only the filtered categories will be recorded. You may apply multiple category filters at once. Remember that applying all filters and no filters yields the same effect.
