Time/Speed Formats

Time

Time controls the duration of change for any parameter.

Guidelines:

• Each parameter can have an individual time.

• Intensity can have both an up and down fade time. The direction of the intensity

transition at the time of playback determines which of those two values is used.

• Cue timing includes the movement of longest duration (combination of delay and

time) and the longest intensity transition (combination of delay and up/down fade

time).

• Filtered values contribute to these times.

• Masked values do not contribute to these times.

• A parameter cannot have both a time and a speed although it can have a time and

delay, or speed and delay.

Time is entered at the keypad in minutes and seconds, seconds, or seconds and tenths

of seconds. (Maximum time entry is 59:59.)

Entering whole numbers will be interpreted as total seconds:

• [2] [5] = 25.00 (25 seconds)

• [9] [0] = 90.00 (90 seconds)

A colon (:) is entered by pressing [.] [.]:

• [2] [.] [.] [5] = 2:05 (2 minutes, 5 seconds)

Fractions of seconds are entered by pressing [.]:

• [1] [ . ] [3] = 1.3 (1.3 seconds)

• [.] [5] = .5 (1/2 second)

• [3] [5] [.] [5] = 35.5 (35 and 1/2 seconds)

Delay

Delay time begins counting from cue execution and delays the playback of any

parameter.
