Timeline Effects Options - Strand Lighting NEO User Manual

User's Manual
Depending on the type of effect you have selected different options will become visible.
Click on the "Edit Effect" button to open the effects editor and automatically show the effect assigned to this
playback.
Exclusive Group
When a playback is created it is automatically placed into the "Independent" group (exclusive group 0). Effects
contained in the independent group will run independently and can all be run at the same time. Setting an effect into
an exclusive group other than 0 will make it exclusive. Only one effects contained in an exclusive group (group other
than 0) can be active at any time. If you start another effect in an exclusive group while another is already running
then the existing effect will stop and the new one started.

Timeline Effects Options

Submaster - Assigning a submaster to the playback will override the dimmer of the fixtures contained in the effect.
As the effect runs the position of the submaster will determine output of the fixtures.
Playback - Assigning a playback will disable the submaster edit box as only one can be assigned to the playback. A
playback relates to the Enttec Playback wing. Assigning a playback does more than just utilize the fader on the wing
but also allows you to use the play, back and pause buttons to run the effect.
Start/Stop Shortcut - Set a shortcut number to assign to the playback controls for this playback. Pressing the shortcut
will start the effect running. Pressing the shortcut while the effect is running will pause the effect and pressing it twice
within 2 seconds will rewind the effect to the start.
Override Effect Length - Set this field to change the length that the effect will run for. If this value is set to 0, the
default length (Set during creation of the effect) will be used. If the effect length is overridden then all of the segments
in the effect will be rescaled to this new length.
Loop Continuously - Check this option to make the effect loop back to the start when it finishes. If this option is not
checked then it will stop as soon as the effect ends.
