11.1.12 Working with the block function (BLOCK)
It is possible to group several chase steps into a block. This block can then be either deleted or copied.
Defining a block
You can form a block from steps that are arranged consecutively in your chase. Move the cursor (with the
middle encoder wheel) to the first step to be integrated in the block. Press and hold the softkey BLOCK
(the field is displayed inverted). Move the middle encoder wheel to the last step to be integrated in the
block and release the softkey BLOCk again. All steps assigned to the block with be marked with a B on
the display.
A graph on the display will show in addition that the block function is active:
This example shows that the block consists of four steps, step 2 to step 5.
Copying a block (B-COPY)
After you have defined a block, use the middle encoder wheel to choose the position in the chase, where
you want to insert this block. The block will always be inserted before the activated (inverted) step. Now
press the softkey B-COPY. The process is executed immediately, so it is not necessary that you press
the Store key in the Combi section.
Press the ESC key to leave the menu.
Deleting a block (B-DEL)
Define the desired block as as described above. Press the softkey B-DEL. The selected block will be
deleted immediately.
Press the ESC key to leave the menu.
Moving a block (B-MOVE)
Define a block as described above.
Moving a block does not mean that this block
is duplicated (see: Copying a block). Your
block is only moved to another position
within the chase. The block is always
inserted before the step that you have
selected with the cursor.
The illustration on the left shows the
individual steps of the moving procedure.
1: Programme your chase.
2: Define the desired block.
3: Position the cursor on chase step,
before
which the block shall be inserted (you can
move the block to every position that is
marked with an arrow (here: Step # 8).
4: Press softkey B-MOVE to confirm the process.
5: The chase will renumber its steps.
Press the ESC key to leave the menu.
