Help for Halloween! Need a lifesaver

[Dawgsteve]

I've created an animated sequence that tells the controller to turn all lights on for the few hours leading up to the musical sequences starting today at 6:30 but the Lights will not come on in Static mode!!!

 

I did it for 10 seconds on the grid on the Sequence Editor but did NOT loop it?  Do I need to loop it?  I scheduled it to keep the lights on static for five hours until the show starts but it just won't do it.

 

Please help if you can!

 

Very frustrated.

In your schedule editor just set it to play the static sequence until the desired time. Then create another entry in schedule editor to play the musical sequence.

My " all lights on" is only 1 minute long and it just loops over and over between musical sequnces.

Do not check any of the Turn lights off at end boxes.

Eg 4-5:59 static animation 6:00 -6:30 musical sequence 6:31-6:59 static animation 7:00-7:30 musical sequence and so on

So in the sequence editor you DO choose loop?  I turned loop off...perhaps thats my problem?

Say your animation sequence is 5 minutes long. You can tell it to loop as many times as you wish. Then as said already, set a schedule to run it up to a specific time and shut down, then tell the schedule editor to play your musical show.
