EDITING SHOW PARAMETERS
(CONTINUED)
Looping
By default, shows are looping. This means that when the show comes to its end, the show will
automatically re-start itself from the START POINT and run in a continuous loop. When looping is disabled,
the show stops at the END POINT and the
Rerun Architectural
will send the last levels of the show until
another show is selected.
The looping feature can be temporarily enabled or disabled as described in the show playback section.
To permanently change a show’s looping status, do the following:
1.
Start playing the show to be edited.
2.
Pause the show at any point. The LOOP LED will immediately display the recorded status of the
looping feature for that show. When the LOOP LED is on, looping is enabled.
3.
Press and hold the recessed [RECORD] button. A paper clip can be used to push this button.
While holding the [RECORD] button, press the [LOOP] button. After it is pressed, the LOOP LED
will change indicating the shows new looping status.
4.
Press the [PAUSE] button to save the new loop status with the show and to resume playing.
Note:
!
When a show selection button is pressed, the loop status will be updated from the recorded show data. This will
override any manual looping selections made previously.
Linking
This feature is for advanced users only. Linking is similar to show looping. However, with linking, when
a show reaches its end, instead of looping to re-start itself, a different show is started. You can select
which show is linked. This powerful feature allows the user to create longer and more complex shows.
To link shows, do the following:
1.
Start playing the first show.
2.
Pause the show at any point.
3.
If it is not enabled already, enable looping for the show (Looping section above).
4.
Press and hold the recessed [RECORD] button. A paper clip can be used to push this button.
While holding the [RECORD] button, press one of the [SHOW] buttons to choose which show will
play after the current one. The LED for that show will flash and the LED for the current show will
remain on solid.
5.
Press the [PAUSE] button to save the new settings and to resume the show. When the show you
just edited finishes playing, the linked show will begin playing. The link and loop status of the next
show will be executed with the new show.
Note:
!
To re-link a show to itself, simply edit the link as described above, but select the current show as the show to be linked.
The current show LED will stay on solid and all other show selection LED’s will turn off.
!
Turning off the loop feature also disables the link function for the current show.
!
When paused, the loop and link status for the current show are displayed.
