4.2 How to create a scene or a program
Add a new scene with the scene options and select its first step. To program all your fixtures, then, you need
to use the control windows to change the DMX values and create good visual effects. Choose the FADE and
WAIT TIMES of the selected step. To continue programming the scene, add another step, modify the fixture's
DMX values and choose again the WAIT and FADE TIMES. Repeat these actions until you finish your scene.
Note:
• A scene contains 1 or several steps.
• By default, a scene will always loop.
• The total time of a scene is the sum of all fade and wait times of all its steps.
• It is possible to play several scenes and work on another one at the same time.
• When you play a scene, the scene will start at the step selected. When you stop a scene, the current step
will be selected automatically.
4.3 Modify the scene's parameters
Scenes and steps have some parameters. The scene's parameters are on the same line of the scene and are
displayed in column. To change the parameter of the scenes or the steps, only double click on the informa-
tion that has to be changed. After that it is possible to change the text or use the pop-up that gives the
possible options for the parameter.
The parameters are these below:
• Activate or not the DMX output signal of the scene (you can create scenes without disturbing the current
show).
• Activate or not the FADE time between scenes.
• Change the NAME of the scene.
• Add some SHORT CUT keys to trigger scenes with a keyboard. (5 keys per scene maximum).
• Add a PORT for dry and direct contact scene triggering via the HE10. (See stand-alone and memory
modes).
• Add a channel and MIDI note for the IDI triggering. The Midi values can be detected automatically. The
first value gives the channel (max 16 channels), the second gives the Note (max 127 notes).
• Add a DMX value to trigger the scenes. This DMX value can be detected automatically. The first value
gives the universe (6 max), the second one the channel (512 max), the last one the DMX value (255 max).
• Choose the LOOPS number.
• Choose the JUMP of the scene after a number of loop.
• Choose the EXIT MODE of the scene after the loops.
• Choose the RELEASE mode of the scenes. This option works when you trigger the scene.
