 Either type in another DMX address to clear or press EXIT to quit

you back in the PATCH menu.
 Use this feature with care, as it is possible to delete one or more of the
Attributes of an Intelligent Fixture, which otherwise remains patched.

 Press ENTER.

press EXIT to quit.

 Deleting a Handle loses all the Programming associated with it. You
should therefore use this function with care!
5.16 Deleting an entire patch
Since deleting all the handles loses all the data programmed with them
anyway, the best way to do this is to do a WIPEALL. See 1.7.1 To do a
WIPEALL
.
5.17 Illegal Addresses
Some Fixtures can only be addressed at certain DMX addresses.
You should check this out before patching by reading the Operators Manual
for the Fixture, looking on the back of the Fixture for specific information or
asking the manufacturer or dealer for that particular Fixture. See Appendix 4.
Intelligent Fixture Manufacturers 
for contact numbers.
Subject to this information being available to Avolites and in the Personality
File, the desk will not allow you to patch at an illegal address, by giving the
message ILLEGAL ADDRESS, you must now enter another DMX address.
5.18 Setting a patch level
Before patching a Dimmer you can optionally set the patch level.
Once you are in the Dimmer patch menu :
 Press Softbutton A [LEVEL = X%]. 
You are asked for a percentage level for that
DMX Channel.
 Type in a percentage level and press ENTER.
That DMX Channel and all subsequent Channels will be limited to the level
entered until you change it again. The default is 100%.
