CREATING SCENES
Before you enter the individual steps, you must select or create a scene.
A new scene is created with the
NEW
button (orange arrow). A
New scene
entry appears in the scene
list (purple arrow). This name is freely editable. The first 15 characters are displayed on the APP.
The
Copy
button (green arrow) copies the selected scene with all of its steps.
The
Delete
button (blue arrow) deletes the selected scene with all of its steps.
The
arrow buttons
(red arrow) are used for changing the order of the scenes.
Note: At the beginning of each scene, the
DMX-Configurator
assumes that the corresponding DMX
channel values have the value “0”. Therefore, it might be that a scene adds or does not change your
DMX values to already existing values. As a consequence, the DMX end device displays incorrect values
(colours).
This can be avoided if you start each scene with a step with the value “1” followed by a step with the
value “0” (for the DMX channels which are not used). There is no
fade
between the steps and a
minimum
wait time
of 10ms. In this way, each DMX channel is set to the desired value “0” before the
actual scene begins. Depending on the requirements, we recommend that a special scene is created
which is used for the “zeroing” of the desired DMX channels.
