Time Clock Activation. Events such as activating presets, applying locks, combining areas, or
activating scripts or chases, can be set to go off at any time of day, either an exact time, or a
time relative to sunrise or sunset. Up to 128 of these events can be programmed. Event dates
can be periodic, occurring on certain days of the week and months of the year, or they may be
set to go off on one of the 16 programmable holidays.
•
Programmable Button Functions. Any preset, master up, master down or special function
including scripts, chases, locks, panics, take-controls or combines can be assigned to any button
on a recall station. These special functions may also be assigned to a master stations on their
virtual buttons.
2.9 Zones
The Collage system uses a zone as an avenue of control for the dimmer. Each zone may have one or
more dimmers connected to it through the programmable patch. A dimmer to zone patch is not a
physical connection through wires, but rather a record in memory of what zones control which
dimmers. The Collage can control up to 512 dimmers through 128 zones.
3 Control Stations
The Collage architectural system uses several types of stations for recording, modifying and recalling
presets and other functions.
3.1 Master Control Stations
