Sorry if this is too much off topic,
when the magenta, cyan andyellow filters are set at zero they are removed from 
the light path. However if you are using multigrade paper then Testing is needed to 
find exactly what settings are required for yellow and magenta filters. Of course the 
exposure would not be constant when changing contrast grade.
Here are suggested starting points for Ilford multigrade paper with your Durst head.
grade     filtration
00             150y
0               90y
.5               70y
1                55y
1.5             30y
 2               0
2.5             20m
3                45m
3.5            65m
4              100m
4.5           140m
5              170m

Hope this helps to start with.
Cameron
