Lighting

FCC A/V Main Page

Here is my understanding of the FCC beam-mounted lighting.
From the chancel, the beam across the back of the sanctuary has 8 light fixtures.

From left to right:

There is a ganged fader for lights 1, 3, 6, 8 "front wash"
There is a ganged fader for lights 4 & 5. "side spots"
There is a ganged fader for lights 2 & 7. "center spots"

The 5 wash lights mounted on the beam above the chancel point downward and are ganged to the fader "back wash"
