[. . . ] Furthermore there is the possibility to set a LARGER/SMALLER (>/<) before the second data byte of the incoming data so that only larger or smaller values are recognized (e. g. controlling a Scancommander by faders of a Lightcommander: Here a button function shall be carried out by a special fader value. By the function >/< the value will always be recognized and executed). Attention: For the application of controlling MA Lighting Control Desks by NOTE ON/NOTE OFF commands, it makes sense to use fader values (e. g. CoCg 01 + 00 + 127 for Memory1 = 100%), because they can be addressed directly and easily. Please take care to use one command each for "ON" and "OFF". To remote chaser, the chaser master, the chaser number and chaser ON/OFF should be programmed. When controlling switch memories or flash buttons of the memories of the Lightcommander, it is necessary to understand the MIDI commands of the Lightcommander: MIDI Lighting Control Desks transmit many MIDI commands or combinations e. g. Therefore all commands must be programmed separately (ON/OFF and many buttons at the same time). If you don't use more than one button at a time, flash buttons can be used very easily. Please note the examples below! 6 MA Lighting Technology GmbH . MA Lightcommander 24/6 fader controls MA Scancommander Job: The memory C10 of the Scancommander shall be controlled by a fader value of 50 % of a Lightcommander: POS. CoCg 1 1 9 Data to remote the memory C10 of the Scancommander To guarantee the recognition of the value above 50 %, the ">" sign is set. Even when the fader is moved very fast, all values above 50 % will be recognized and thus memory C10 of the Scancommander will be called. See also chapter 8: MIDI commands Attention: The command will be repeated upon pulling the fader down again. B. MA Lightcommander 24/6 SWITCH Memories control MA Scancommander Job: Switch memories of Lightcommander 24/6 shall control different memories or sequences of the Scancommander (max. Attention: The switch memories should work in KILL mode to avoid double activation. CoCg 1 0 16 (Memory C10) (Sequence 15) (Memory A17) Switch memories 1 to 3 (no page information is included here) Position 0 will activate memory C10 of the Scancommander by pressing switch memory 1 of LC 24. 15, position 2 activates memory A17.

Masterkeyboard controls MA Lightcommander 24 (Memories) Job: Memory 10 of LC 24 shall be activated 100 % by pressing one key of the master keyboard. CoCg 1 9 0 Brightness 100% Brightness 0% Please read note (key number) in the user manual of the master keyboard Pos. 0 activates memory 10 of LC 24 100 % by a key value (velocity) > 1. If the brightness of the memory is dependent on the velocity, please see the following data: POS. CoCg 1 9 ALL Here the second line is not necessary because the command ALL will transmit also the brightness value 0 %. D. Masterkeyboard controls Lightcommander 24 (Chaser) Job: Pressing a key of a master keyboard controls chaser no. 2 switches off chaser when the key is released. 8 MA Lighting Technology GmbH .
