Pressing the Blackout soft-key will snap all HTP channels to zero. The word Blackout will flash while the desk is in blackout mode. Pressing the Blackout soft-key again will result in the HTP channels returning to their set levels.

If you want instant access to a blackout button a useful tip is to use one of the auxiliary keys. Set it to operate in Solo mode. Pressing an auxiliary key set up in this way will also set all HTP channels to zero.
