7. This will add a "Set Variable" command to the event tab, as shown below:

You can use global variables in a conditional statement. In the example below, the
conditional statement selects a path of action depending on whether you set the front
gate variable to "Closed".

Global Presets

Global Presets allow you to create a set of pre-defined actions that you can assign to
any event. That is, you can assign the preset to any button or other system input in
your lighting program.

To define a global preset

1. Select the Global Presets device in the system directory. The program detail

area in the center of the screen will display a list of any global presets you
previously created.

2. Click

New

to create a new, "blank" preset. To rename the preset, select it and

press F2.
