switch. “Link” lets you to select another show that will automatically follow this show after it has played
through.
At any time while recording the show you can adjust the loop or manual settings, select a link or enter a
name for the show. To set manual mode or program the link, use the right cursor switch to move the
cursor on the display to the right, continuing past the “loop” field. The screen will switch to page two of
the menu, showing these additional items. To enter the show name, continue the cursor to the right past
the “link” field until the “show name” field appears on page 3 of the menu. Edit the name by putting the
cursor under each character then use the + or - switch or data wheel #1 to change the character. You can
also use an external keyboard to enter the name characters.
If you want another show to automatically be called when this one ends, set the link to “on” and select the
page and show number for the linked show. If you enable a link, looping will be turned off. If you are
running in manual mode, make sure the linked show is also set to manual, otherwise the clock will restart
when the linked show is called.
After you have finished recording the steps and setting the show attributes, save the show by selecting a
page and number where you want to store it. Make sure that the “scene” LED is off. If you select a show
number that is already lit, a message will appear prompting you to overwrite the existing show. Press “yes”
or “no”.
After you have saved the show, Show Designer 3 remains in record mode allowing you to continue to edit
the show. To exit record mode, press “record”, the LEDs will stop flashing.
ERASE SHOW
To erase an existing show, press “record” then “show” then “erase”. As when recording a show, all LEDs
that contain a show will be lit. Next select the show to erase. That show name will appear in the LCD. The
message “Erase this Show?” will also appear. Press “yes” or “no”. If you press “yes” the show will be
erased. Erase entire show only works when there is no show currently being edited. While editing a show,
“erase” is used to erase show steps. You can abort show erase at any time by either pressing “no” or by
exiting record mode by pressing the “record” switch.
EDITING EXISTING SHOWS
To edit a show that has already been recorded, press “record” followed by “show”. Instead of entering
steps for a new show, press the show number of the one you want to edit. The message “Edit this existing
Show?” will appear in the display. Press “yes” and the show will be called up and you can add to it or
modify it by selecting steps and changing any value just as you would while recording it the first time. After
editing, a show can be saved at the same or at a new location by pressing any number switch. You can use
this method to copy a show to another memory location by calling it for edit and then saving it without
making any changes. Please note that the “scene” LED must be turned off before you can save the show.
PLAYING SHOWS
To start a show, press the “show” switch, and then select the desired page and number switch. The display
will show the page, show number and name of the show along with the current step, the current scene and
hold time. If the show is set to run in manual mode, the hold time will display “manual” and you will have
to press the go switch to advance the show steps otherwise it will run on its internal clock. You can only
run one show at a time from the number switches. If you select another show it will replace the one that is
