Submasters and intelligent fixtures

Question

I have a reoccurring issue that I thought that I could fix but I can't seem to get it. 
 When I use my submasters, they effect lights that are not programmed in them if they are moving lights. If I move a submaster that controls the area lights (S4s) for area 10 for instance, it will move my moving lights around with them by controlling the pan and tilt even though they are not programmed in. 
 Also, when I use the submasters to control the RGB values of my LED fixtures, it looks great to have one color at full. However, when the sub is at anything less than 100%, it also adds in the other color channels. This prevents me from doing color mixing with the sliders which I know sounds archaic to those of us who can use a color picker. But, students of all ages use this computer and it is nice to have them use sliders. 
 This may be two separate problems but they both involve not intensity parameters and submasters.

O.K., I have attached the show file. I attempted to follow the suggestion and although I can choose a specific color when saving the submaster, it still has the same effect. 
 The subs are 36 - 38 and the channels in question are 600-613 
 Any help would be appreciated.

So it looks like Sub 36 is LED's in Red. Is that the only thing you want that sub to do? Not sure what console you're using, but the easiest thing to do if you only want Red LED's in Sub 36 would be to re-record the sub. 
 1) Blind 
 2) Delete Sub 36. Confirm the delete. 
 3) Sub 36 Enter. (To recreate sub 36). 
 4) 600 thru 613 Red Full Enter. Now Only Red will be at 100% in the Sub. One way to get Red to post to the command line would be to click the tile labeled Red in the CIA. Tiles are located to the left of the browser in the CIA. 
 5) Do this same procedure for all the other colors. 
 If you like the rest of the sub, but just want to get rid of the other colors in the sub try the example below: 
 1) Go to Blind Sub 36 and have the format in table view so you can see all your parameters. 
 2) Select your channel(s). I'm using just channel 600 as an example. 
 3) Next to the browser in the CIA there are tiles, and tiles with colors should be posted there. Click the Green, Blue, and White Tiles. This should post for example, "Chan 600 Green Blue White" to the command line. 
 4) Press [At] then Press [Enter]. This should leave only the Red with a level of 100 and take the 0's away from the Green, Blue, and White columns. Now channel 600 in Sub 36 won't be able to control the other colors. The other colors were at 0 in the sub, so that's probably why you had issues mixing colors. 
 In a sub you can always use [At] [Enter] to get rid of anything else you do not want. 
 I hope this helps.
