RECALLING CHASES

To run a chase, press the "CHASE" switch turning on its LED, then press the desired
page and number. The chase will begin to run at the speed that was programmed
when it was recorded. Pressing the same switch again will turn the chase off. You
can run more than one chase (up to 8) as long as they are chasing different
channels.
You can adjust the speed or the fade rate of the chase that is currently shown in
the display. Place the underline cursor on the field you want to edit then use the +
or – switches or the data wheel to adjust the value. Place the cursor under the
chase name to select a different chase if more than one is running. Any speed
changes that are made will be saved if you record the current scene. This allows
you to reuse the same chase in different scenes at different speeds. Press the
"CHASE" switch whenever you want to see the chase display when there are
chases running.
You can run up to 8 chases simultaneously. If a new chase is selected that
completely overrides one that is running, the overridden chase will be
automatically turned off. A chase is canceled when another one is called that
controls all of the same channels. A chase will not be canceled if only some of its
channels are overridden. The channels that are still available will continue to chase.

ERASING CHASES

To erase an existing chase, press "RECORD" then "CHASE" then "ERASE". As when
recording a chase, all LEDs that contain a chase will be lit. Next select the chase to
erase. The message "Erase This?" along with the chase name will appear in the LCD.
Press "YES" or "NO". If you press "YES" the chase will be erased. This only works when
there is no chase being edited or recorded. While editing a chase, "ERASE" is used to
erase the chase steps. You can abort chase erase at any time by either pressing
"NO" or exiting record mode by pressing the "record" switch.
NOTE: It can take several seconds to erase a chase depending on how much
memory is currently in use.
