Program features
Use {Lin-fade}, {Log-fade} or {Exp-fade} to toggle between these fade curves and see what happens.
16.7.5 Preview sequence
Use the preview function to run the sequence in the editor before you actually store it to memory.
1. Press {Preview} to enter the preview dialog.
2. Press {Run} to preview the sequence. The sequence starts running at high priority.
The scene counter indicates the current scene.
Choose the sequence run mode with {forward}, {backward}, {bounce} and {random}.
Press {Single step} to trigger the sequence manually.
3. Press [ESC] to exit the preview function.
16.7.6 Lamp procedures
In the lamp procedures you find the lamp on, lamp off and lamp reset macros. You need to specify those
macros in the fixture definition; otherwise they will not work when you call them.
1. Press {Lamp procs} to enter the lamp procedures menu.
{Lamp On} to strike the selected fixtures.
{Lamp Off} to darken the selected fixtures.
{Reset} to reset the selected fixtures.
2. Press [ESC] to exit the lamp procedures.
16.7.7 Invert
You have already seen that you can invert control channels in the fixture definition. But this setting is a
hardware characteristic and thus is a global setting. But you can also invert channels while programming
scenes.
1. Hold {Invert}.
2. Press the SM button(s) below the channel(s) you wish to invert.
3. Release {Invert}.
Example: you have 8 fixtures of the same type. Select all fixtures and activate their pan and tilt channels.
Leave the even fixtures unchanged. Select the odd fixtures and invert the pan channel in the programmer.
Select all fixtures again and adjust the pan value. The pan of the odd fixtures should move in the opposite
direction of the even fixtures.
