Default Value not 0 of NonDim channels with GM Exempt

Hi,

I have a problem that I don't understand, maybe someone is seeing my mistake here.

Let's say I have a NonDim channel patched. I have used the Generic "On at 50" template, but copied and changed it to "On at 10" in the fixture editor. So the fixture is this now:

Intensity, 8 Bit, Home = 0, 2 Ranges: 1 Min = 0, Max = 0, User Min = 0, User Max = 9 // Range 2: Min = 255, Max = 255, User Min = 10, User Max = 100.

So far, the only thing I changed was User Min Max from 49/50 to 9/10.

Now, when I enable "GM Exempt" for this channel in Attributes, the default / home value of that channel jumps to 5 in the live tombstone. I don't understand why...?

No cues active, no Subs active, channel shows a grey "5". About says Value & Abs = 5 and DMX = 0, but all in grey with no source obviously.

When I change the channel value manually and sneak it, it sneaks to 0 ! But after a "Go to Cue Out" it fades back to 5...Now, this behavior disappears when I disable the "GM Exempt" in Patch. 

I made a Home Preset too for this channel with 0 value..still going to 5.

Interestingly, this is not the same behavior when I use the Template "On at 50" fixture without editing it...

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong here ?

Thanks !

Cheers,

Matze
