Programming a standalone show
You can program a standalone show – a sequence of ’scenes’ that run in a loop – in the Exterior
Projection 500. A scene consists of a combination of effects such as gobo selection, gobo
movement, color, intensity, etc. You can set the standalone show to run if you are not using a
DMX controller or if a signal from a DMX controller is lost. The show can contain up to 20 scenes
that last up to 10 minutes each. You can program ’fades’ (changes from one scene to the next) so
that scenes change immediately or change gradually over a period of up to 120 seconds’ duration.
Note: To enable standalone operation, the OFFLINE MODE setting in the FIXTURE CONFIG
menu must be set to RUN SHOW. See ‘Offline mode – behavior when no DMX or Master signal is
received’ on page 22. A fixture will only run a standalone show when it is not receiving a DMX
signal.
