Please note: “Tap Tempo” functionality is available under “Button 
Function” in the General Tap on any playback which is a chase. 

Alternately, “Use Global BPM” can be selected. This 
allows multiple chases to all use the same BPM. The 

Global BPM speed can be controlled by pressing the 

 

button and changing the “Global BPM” wheel, or by 
holding  Setup  and pressing the Playback Button of an 

empty playback, and selecting 

 Global Tap Tempo 

The central encoder  button or playback button will now 
work as a Tap Tempo, and the encoder / fader will 
speed up / slow down the Global BPM. 

Shots 

This option determines how many times the chase will 
run after being triggered. 

When Shots is set to zero, the chase runs continuously. 

When Shots is set to a value between 1 and 255, the 
chase runs the specified number of times and then 
stops on the last step. 

Note 

– If the Direction modifier is set to Random, then one “shot” is 

defined as outputting N steps, where N is the total number of steps 
(cues) in the cue stack. 

 

Playback Setup window 

– Raise and Lower tab 

Raise and Lower 

The various options are described below: 

Trigger on Raise

 

When the playback fader is raised, the first cue is 
activated. 

Release on Lower

 

When the playback fader is lowered, the stack is 
released. 

Trigger / Release Level

 

The level at which the playback is triggered or released, 
in %. If set to 10%, the playback will not be triggered 
until the physical fader is at 10%. 

Raise Time

 

This time simulates a time the physical fader is raised 
over. So setting it to 5 seconds, and pulling up the fader 
instantly, will take 5 seconds to fade up the playback. 

Lower Time

 

This time simulates a time the physical fader is lowered 
over. So setting it to 5 seconds, and pulling down the 
fader instantly, will instead take 5 seconds to fade down 
the playback. 

 

Playback Setup window 

– Move on Dark tab 

Move on Dark 

The various options are described below: 

Move on Dark

 

When this function is enabled for the playback, 
whenever a fixture goes black (ie it’s intensity falls to 
zero, or the shutter is closed), ZerOS will look ahead in 
the playback to see what values the colour, beam and 
position parameters are next programmed at for that 
fixture. 

It will then output those values shortly after the fixture 
has gone black (according to the delay and fade times 
set in the window). When the fixture comes back on 
again in a later cue, the colour, gobo, position etc. will 
already be at their correct values and just the intensity 
will fade up or the shutter open. 

Move to First Cue

 

This option is used when there are no more cues later 
in the playback for the fixture to Move on Dark to. If 
enabled, when fixtures go dark for the last time in the
