Presets and Sequences
Use Presets and Sequences
to run a preset color mix or a sequence of presets in a stand-alone
operation. when no external control signal is connected to the fixture.
Presets and sequences override Quick Setups and the Send DMX configuration. When a Preset or
Sequence is stopped, the fixture or fixtures return to the previous configuration.
Presets
A Preset is a single, static look or color mix. Only one Preset can be active at a time. As you edit the
preset settings, the change is updated live in the fixture’s memory. However, the change is not saved
to an RDM configuration tool or DMX/RDM lighting control device. If you customize a Preset for future
use, you must record it. To record a preset, the fixture must be in HSI mode. DMX takes precedence
over presets.
The fixture is shipped with all emitters active so you can focus the fixture during installation. This look
remains active until it is changed with an RDM configuration tool or RDM lighting control device. Once
you record a Preset, this original look is longer available.
Fade Time
Fade time is the length of time the fixture takes to cross fade from the previous setting to the
Preset. The format is MM:SS. The default is 2 seconds.
Delay Time
Delay time is the length of time the fixture waits on the previous setting before initiating the
cross fade to the Preset. The default is 0 seconds.
