Programming effects in scenes
The programming of effects is performed using the stand alone Program
menu options, such as:
When operating multiple fixtures in master/slave mode, the wait time in
slave fixtures is disregarded, and is determined by the master fixture. Each
fixture fades at its own rate and then waits for the master to signal a scene,
or program, start before continuing.
When programming a master fixture, keep in mind that its total scene times
should be equal to or longer than the fade times of the other fixtures. You
will get unpredictable results if, for example, a scene is programmed in the
master to last 10 seconds and in other fixtures to fade for 15 seconds.
Scene management
Once you have specified a mix of effects, you can store the scene using the
options available under the Program menu:
D i m m e r
The dimmer level.
C y a n
M a g e n t a
Y e l l o w
The color.
R a n d o m
c o l o r s
A continuously changing and random mix of all three,
or any two of the primary subtractive colors (CMY).
The speed of the effect can be set to slow, medium,
or fast.
F a d e t i m e
The fade time, anything from 0 to 120 seconds, is the
time it takes to change from one color to another. If
the fade time and wait time are the same, the colors
change continuously.
W a i t t i m e
This is the duration a color is applied. A wait time can
be from 1 second to 12 hours.
S t o r e
s c e n e
Save settings in the current scene.
A d d s c e n e
Save settings in a new scene at the end of the
sequence.
I n s e r t
s c e n e
Save settings in a new scene before the current
scene, which moves up a number.
Tip: Think of the
Add and Insert commands as Save commands, to be
used as the last step after programming all effects.
