LED Configuration Software 1.0 Programming Guide

Sequences

A Sequence is a timed series of Presets. Up to 12 different Sequences may be altered for

Preset selections, crossfade rate, and link time. Only one Preset within a sequence can be

active at a time.

You can create your own custom sequence that includes two or more Presets. For

example, you may want to sequence through Presets 2, 4, 23, and 1, in that order. As you

enter these into the sequence, you also can set the rate and link time for each step.

As you edit the Sequence Settings, the change is updated live in the fixture’s memory.

Figure-1.11 Sequences pane.

Step Number

You enter the number of the step in the sequence to be edited.

Preset Number

Preset is the number of a Preset, whether it is a predefined or a custom color mix.

Link Time (mm:ss)

Link Time is the length of time the fixture waits before moving from one Preset to the next.

The format is minutes:seconds (mm:ss). The default is 2 seconds.

Rate (%)

Rate is the execution of the Presets' Fade Times and Delay Times within the Sequence,

relative to their settings within the actual Presets. The available Rate range is 2 to 500%.

The default is 100%.

A Rate of 100% represents running the Sequence with timing exactly as specified within

the Presets. A Rate above 100% represents running the Sequence with faster timing than

specified within the Presets. For example, with a Rate of 200%, a Preset with a Fade Time

of 6 seconds would actually be run within the Sequence in only 3 seconds.

A Rate below 100% represents running the Sequence with slower timing than specified

within the Presets. For example, with a Rate of 50%, a Preset with a Fade Time of 6

seconds would actually be run within the Sequence in 12 seconds.
