EDITING SHOW PARAMETERS
(CONTINUED)
Cross fading
Each show can have the cross fade function enabled or disabled. When enabled (the default state), the show
will execute a two second fade from the current levels to the levels at the START POINT of the show when that
show is selected. When cross fading is disabled for a show, the levels will jump immediately from the current
levels to the levels at the START POINT of the show.
To enable or disable cross fading, do the following:
1.
Start playing the show to be edited.
2.
Pause the show at any point.
3.
Press and hold the number 10 [SHOW] button. Hold the number 10 [SHOW] button for about five
seconds. While held, the remaining [SHOW LEDS] will indicate the status of other show and system
parameters. The number 3 [SHOW LED] indicates the status of the cross fade option for that show.
While continuing to hold the number 10 [SHOW] button, press the number 3 [SHOW] button to
toggle the state of the option. When the number 3 [SHOW LED] is lit, the cross fade option is
enabled. Set the cross fading option as desired.
4.
Release the number 10 [SHOW] button.
5.
Press the [PAUSE] button to save the new settings and to resume the show. The next time the show
is selected, it will start using the cross fade option as just recorded.
End of show output
When a show is set to stop running at the END POINT (not looping) the behavior of the Rerun Portable can be
set up in two different ways. By default, a show stops at its END POINT and the Rerun Portable continues to
send the last levels of that show until a new show is selected. Each show can be set up to stop sending
DMX512 data entirely at the end of the show. By going off-line, many moving lights and dimming systems will
detect the loss of DMX512 and begin their shut down routines.
To alter the end-of-show behavior, do the following:
1.
Start playing the show to be edited.
2.
Pause the show at any point.
3.
If it is not disabled already, disable looping for the show (Looping section above).
4.
Press and hold the number 10 [SHOW] button. Hold the number 10 [SHOW] button for about five
seconds. While held, the remaining [SHOW LEDS] will indicate the status of other show and system
parameters. The number 2 [SHOW LED] indicates the status of the end-of-show output option for that
show. While continuing to hold the number 10 [SHOW] button, press the number 2 [SHOW] button to
toggle the state of the option. When the number 2 [SHOW LED] is lit, the Rerun Portable will stop
DMX512 output at the end of the show. When the number 2 [SHOW LED] is off, the Rerun Portable will
continue sending DMX512 at the end of the show. Set the end-of-show transmission option as desired.
5.
Release the number 10 [SHOW] button.
6.
Press the [PAUSE] button to save the new settings and to resume the show.
Note:
!
The end-of-show behavior will only apply if the show has looping disabled.
!
If the pile-on feature is enabled, the DMX512 output will remain active if there is an input signal
present. In this case, the output will remain active even if the completed show is set to disable
the DMX512 output.
