Using just the former isn’t practical as one could have several fixtures assigned to the same channel. Using just the latter (for me) isn’t practical as that’s not the way the console sees them. That being said, I do perceive that including Unit numbers isn’t all that common but it makes referring to fixtures a lot simpler.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#0066FF'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#0066FF'>My 2¢.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:#0066FF'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Eurostile","sans-serif";color:#632423'>C.
