A slide show is a compilation of slides to be displayed. Every slide show has a start time. One
slide show stops when another slide show is started.
A slide show is already predefined and noted for you on the configuration sheet before
shipping the Sunny Matrix. You can see which slide show is selected if you go to “Display >
Slide Show“ in the “Slide Show Overview“ area. Make sure that you have not assigned a start
time twice.
You can display a preview of the current slide show if you go to “Start“ [Preview]. Further
information on the preview can be found in the user manual.
