About scenes
A stand-alone light show consists of scenes. Each scene is a
particular lighting effect with predetermined color, intensity and
duration. Up to 100 scenes can be programmed into the Exterior
400 Image Projector's program memory.
Each scene has a dynamic part – the fade – during which effects
move to the scene's programmed positions, and a static part – the
wait – where effects do not change.
The duration of the fade and wait is programmed individually for
each scene. The fade time may be 0 - 120 seconds; the wait time
may be 1 second to 12 hours. The total time it takes a scene to
execute is the sum of the fade and wait times.
Programming scenes
To program a scene:
1. See Figure 16. Click on the Stand-alone program button.
2. In the Gobo section, clicking on a number to select a gobo slot and move the Rotate fader to select
rotation direction and speed.
3. In the Intensity section, move the fader to the desired output intensity.
4. In the Focus section, move the fader to adjust focus.
5. Select a color filter slot n the color filter section (arrowed). 0 is the open position (no color filter).
6. The Iris and Shutter and Strobe options available match those listed in the "DMX protocol" section
starting on page 34.
7. The Effect Macros are pre-programmed combinations of the fixture's effects that give immediate
access to different types of action. Setting the same Effect Macros in multiple fixtures can help you
make sure that scenes are the same in those fixtures.
8. Select a wait time and a fade time for the scene.
