Once the fader lever is moved to this position, the non-sync state ends, and the next transition (direction shown by the arrow) is possible.

LEDs light.

If the fader lever is moved in the direction away from the lit LEDs, this carries out the next transition, over the remaining part of the fader lever travel.

Even in a non-sync state, you can carry out an auto transition by pressing the [AUTO TRANS] button. During the auto transition, the indicators show the transition progress in the usual way, but when the transition completes, they once again indicate the non-sync state.

Fader Lever Operation in Bus Fixed Mode

In the bus fixed mode there is a fixed relationship between the position of the fader lever and the signal output on each bus. Depending on the direction of the transition, the fader lever must therefore always be moved in a particular direction, as shown in the following table. This does not affect an auto transition, which is executed regardless of the fader lever direction.

For an overview of the bus fixed mode, see “Flip-flop mode and bus fixed mode” (page 43).
