Igniting Spots
Most moving devices have a control channel for functions such as igniting the lamp,
extinguishing the lamp, resetting the device, and fan control.
This control channel is known as ignite and is included in the device definition. The
ignition sequences depend on what function you are requesting and on the ignition
channel's definition.
