Speed
Speed is the rate of change for any parameter.
Speed attributes for VARI❋LITE luminaires:
• A speed of zero is a full stop for all luminaires.
• All luminaires operate up to a speed between 200 and 400.
• Any luminaire set for a value above its maximum speed, will operate at full speed.
Note: Speed is not supported for any DMX fixtures (which includes VL2000™ Series
luminaires).
Timing Mode Operation
The Timing screen is used to define an entire timing scheme, which can then be sent to
selected luminaires using the Timing button. The screen/window is also used
to specify the target of timing entries made at the command-line keypad. When the
Timing mode is selected, current timing, delay, and speed information is displayed
within the cell of its associated parameter.
Guidelines:
• Pressing the Timing button sends all parameter timing values to selected
luminaires whether the parameter is selected (highlighted) or not.
• Entries made at the keypad will be sent directly to any parameters selected
(highlighted) in the Timing screen/window. For example, if "Blue" is selected at
the Timing screen/window and a command-line entry such as [Time] [5] [Enter] is
made, then the time value will be sent directly to the mechanism mapped to the
Blue encoder of any selected luminaires. De-selected parameters in the Timing
screen/window would not receive this value.
