device is connected during runtime the module appears in the GUI.

EQUENCE LISTS
Each hardware control module in the software, except the timecode display, has five buttons and a
table for sequence editing. Lists for sequences of movements, rotations, iQ-Trigger releases, and
illumination (lightHEAD and HDR option) can be edited with a table, modified and saved for reuse. All
sequence lists can be executed simultaneously.
When the button [1] is activated the sequence is started by clicking the play button
player). As long as button [1] is activated none of the control items in each module can be used in
order to avoid disturbance of the sequence. If the loop-button [2] is activated, the complete sequence
list for this component of the lightSTUDIO is repeated infinitely until the user stops the sequence.
For editing the list there are three buttons: a new row is added to the table with the button "+" [3].
Button [4] deletes a selected row and button [5] clears the whole table.

Software Documentation
While editing the fields of a table, the values are validated for
wrong input. Velocities in rotation and translation are verified for
applicability (see data sheet for limits) and times are checked for
overlapping ranges. The numbers entered may have a decimal
notation using a '.' or a ','. Missing values are highlighted in red.
The buttons [1] and [2] are only enabled if the table is complete.
All sequences can be added to sequence tool in every desired
combination.
All lists can be saved and opened in the File menu or with the
