Timing
An Event can be started and stopped by a range of methods that enable very flexible scheduling.
Examples of scheduling possibilities using these methods include:
Starting a Show at midnight every night and having it repeat continuously until 45 minutes before
dawn. (Using the
Timed Auto Play
option.)
Starting a Show whenever the lighting system is powered up. (Using the
Power On
option.)
