13.1 Activating a chase for speed regulation
Press and hold the Select key in the Chase Control section. Press the chase key in addition, on which the
desired chase is stored. Now you have direct access to the activated chase and can modify its
parameters with the above listed control elements.
13.2 Changing speed with the encoder wheel (SPEED)
After successful activation of the chase as described in13.1, it is possible to progressively regulate the
speed with the encoder wheel (SPEED). The speed range can be adjusted from 0.0500 seconds to
819.18 seconds.
You can change the speed at intervals of 0.0125 seconds by turning the inner ring of the encoder wheel
(SPEED).
By turning the outer ring of the encoder wheel, the intervals become greater, depending on how far the
ring is turned to the left or right.
13.3 Changing speed with the Learn key
Activate the desired chase as described in 13.1.
Then press the Learn key two times at the speed, at which the steps are intended to run (e.g. to the
rhythm of a music track). The time interval will be adopted that elapses while the LED is blinking. The
chase immediateley runs at the new speed. The blinking intervals of the yellow LED show the speed, at
which the chase runs.
