Auto mode

Hey sorry in advance I'm a total noobie. I've just started setting up freestyler to control some lights and was wondering if there was a way to tell my lights to go in to auto chase type mode. (Excuse my poor terminology). If I run the lights with out connecting dmx controller they go through auto programs but I'd like to every now and then start a sequence of my own. Hope that makes sense! The lights are super Leo's and scimitar. Thanks [emoji1]

Thanks for reply :) That's the trouble, I can't find a manual anywhere! I did a little test last night and if I disconnect the dmx cable or close freestyler the lights start doing their preprogrammed thing. In order to switch between my own scenes and the preprogrammed built in to lights, is there a way to stop freestyler outputting a dmx signal?

I doubt this will do what you need but right click on the fixture and select disable fixture. Since the device remains cabled it will still see the DMX stream, thus my doubt this will do what you want.

The reason I asked for the manual (and I've run into the issue of not being able to find one) is that sometimes there is a Channel that selects functions of the device and running a pre-programmed chase is often one of the functions.
