ROGRAMMING SCENES
Scenes contain one DMX value for every channel and determine how each light looks
at a particular moment. They are stored in 30 groups called banks. There are 6 scenes
per bank in single-controller mode and 12 scenes per bank in tandem mode. There is
also a flash scene that is not stored in a bank and thus can be executed at any time.
Scenes are programmed and executed one at a time. In single-controller mode, the
active scene is displayed as a 1-digit number and the active bank is displayed as a 2-
digit number.
