2.1.1. How to use Easy Time
Easy Time is an advanced tool which must be used to program movements (circle, curve...). If
you want to simply create steps, it is easier to use Easy Step.
Easy Time is a tool which enables you to control channels in time. Each channel is programmed
independently. "EasyTime" has been designed for maximum ease and convenience when programming
"Scenes" and "Switches".
Easy Time is similar to an Excel-sheet displaying all the values of each channel in time. Channels are
shown on a horizontal axis and elapsing time on a vertical axis. This grid is called the "time sheet".
Therefore, "Time sheet" therefore globally represents the progress made by all the channels on a
specific page from the corresponding "Scene" or "Switch" activation onwards.
