Timing Filter Operation
The Timing Filter is used to define an entire timing scheme, which can then be sent to selected luminaires using the

Time Filter Enter

button. The Timing Filter is also used to specify the target of timing entries made at the command-
line keypad. When the Timing Filter is selected, current timing, delay, and speed information is displayed within the
cell of its associated parameter.
Guidelines:
+
Pressing the

Time Filter Enter

button sends all parameter timing values to selected luminaires whether the
parameter is selected (highlighted) or not.
+
Entries made at the keypad will be sent directly to any parameters selected (highlighted) in the Timing Filter. For
example, if "Blue" is selected at the Timing Filter and a command-line entry such as [Time] [5] [Enter] is made,
then the time value will be sent directly to the mechanism mapped to the Blue encoder of any selected luminaires.
De-selected parameters in the Timing Filter would not receive this value.
Use the examples below to send all values in the Timing Filter or individual values to luminaires as required.
Set an entire timing scheme:
Step 1. At Timing Filter, select a parameter(s).
Step 2. At keypad, press [Time], [Delay],
or
[Speed] as required, followed by time value. Time value will appear in
cells of selected parameters.
Step 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2, selecting different parameters and entering new values.
Step 4. Select channels as required.
Step 5. Press

Time Filter Enter

button to send all values.
Send a timing value directly to a selected parameter:
Step 1. Select channels as required.
Step 2. At Timing Filter, select a parameter.
Step 3. At keypad, press [Time], [Delay], or [Speed] as required, followed by time value and then [Enter]. Time value
will appear in cell of selected parameter at screen/window and be sent directly to selected channels.
Clear Timing Filter of all values:
If timing values are cleared (as opposed to zero), existing timing information for that parameter in the luminaire will be
left intact upon pressing

Time Filter Enter

button.
+ Press

Filter Clear

. All values will be cleared.
An example of setting edge and focus timing:
Step 1. Select channels as required.
Step 2.

EDGE

FOCUS

[Time] [.] [5] [Enter] - sets timing value for edge (edge, frost, effect, prism), and focus (pan,
tilt) to one-half second.
An example of setting focus delay time:
Step 1. Select channels as required.
Step 2.

FOCUS

[Time] [1] [.] [0] [Delay] [.] [5] [Enter] - sets the timing values for focus (pan, tilt) to 1 second with a
one-half second delay.
Set color delay time:
Step 1. Select channels as required.
Step 2.

COLOR

[Time] [n] [Delay] [m] [Enter] - sets all color timing to n seconds, with an m second delay.
