Hi.
Great free software by the way, ive been using it for a bit but never really ventured much into it.
I have a 4 Chan chaser i normally use with my light box but decided to also use for when im doing small events or friends parties.
As the chaser is powerful enough to run all my lights at once if wanted.

What i want to do is.
Plug each light into each channel.
Then set a sequence of 1 for chan 1 on full and all other off and call chan 1. and the same for the other 3 Chans.
Then in cue player (this is what i can’t get to work) i load the first 4 cues with my 4 cues.
I then set the time encoder to count down and set the time next to each cue to 00:15:00 and hit go.
In theory it should just have chan 1 on for 15 then goto next chan for 15 mins.
BUUUT its doing chan 1 for 60 secs then turns on chan 2 (next cue) for 60 secs then the next cue. so in 4 mins all the chans are on full.

I want it to turn on chan1 for 15 mins, turn off
then chan 2 for 15 mins, then turn off then chan 3 and so on. so it rotates through the whole 4 lights in 1 hour.

Any ideas how to do this you gifted clever people?

Waht about the following:

set up the different sequences you wanna have at each relevant time. for example:

8 pm: turn on channel 1, turn off all other channels
8:15 turn on ch2, turn of all other ch

and so on

insert sequences into a cue

define the start times in the time code row

enable timecode and here you go

once you have yout lighting pc not having other things to do, use times like 00:00:01 00:15:00 00:30:00 etc and set the computer's time to 00:00:00 whenever you wanna go the show.

in my example i started at the actual time with one minute duration.

cheers, henry
