6. If a slave has more scenes than the master calls, the last scenes in the
slave will never be executed, as is the case with scene S4 in the

7. A slave fixture will not listen for the next message from the master fixture
before it has finished its current scene. This may result in a slave
skipping a scene if the slave has a longer scene time than the master.
Note that in the following example the scenes in the Slave run out of
their programmed sequence because scenes 0 and 2 on the Slave are
longer than the corresponding scenes on the Master.
