Park [Tab 20]

You can access the park display by pressing [Park] [Park] or [Tab] [2][0]. Element Classic users will need to use {Park}.

The park display shows all parked channels and parameter values on the top half of the screen and all parked addresses (dimmers) on the bottom half of the screen. Parked channels displayed on the top of the screen can be displayed in the summary and table views seen in Live or Blind by using the [Format] key.

When a channel intensity is parked, the parked value will be indicated in white text. When a channel has a non-intensity parameter that is parked, that parameter will also be indicated with white text. The display also provides detail of which user parked the channel and /or parameter (when multiple users are on the system).

When an address is parked, it will appear in the bottom half of the park display. The address, parked value, affected channels and parameters are indicated.

About Park Instructions

The park instruction allows you to set a channel or parameter to a specific value and have it remain at that level on stage (live mode), prohibiting manual control override, cue or submaster playback modification. Park may also be used to place a scaling instruction on the intensity output of a channel.

A parked channel intensity is not impacted by grandmaster or blackout operations.

Parked values are withheld from all record targets, but you can manually set levels for parked channels and parameters and store those values into record targets. Keep in mind that the values set and stored in live do not actually output to the system if the parameter is parked.

When channels or parameters are parked, the LED on the [Park] button illuminates and the live display will indicate “Parked Channels” or “Parked Dimmers” in the top right corner. In addition, any parked channel or parameter will be indicated with a white channel number and a “P” will be visible in the channel. When the parked channel or parameter is unparked, it reverts to the level the console is currently providing, or its default value if there is no current instruction.

Park instructions are not subject to partition control. Any user may park and unpark channels or parameters as needed. Parked parameters set by radio focus remotes (RFR) will automatically unpark when the associated device goes offline.

Channels, parameters and outputs can be parked and unparked from live and from the park display.

Output from parked channels or parameters is not displayed in Augment3d.
