What controller?

[klomneck]

they are CTB16PC controllers. i can make the lights flicker but i would like them to do so for about an hour or two straight. thanks for the help

do an animation loop...or were you wanting audio with it?

[George Simmons]

I think the easiest way would be to create an animation sequence with the lights "Flickering" just the way you want them to. You could run it with the sequence editor - no need to mess around with making a show or anything like that. You only need to make your sequence a minute long. Then go to PLAY and put a check next to the LOOP AT END option and you're good to go. It will play continuously until you stop it.

Would that not hurt the lights? 2 straight hours of putting them through seizures?

[klomneck]

no audio with it, i just need some flickering lights like the power is failing. your option works perfectly George. thanks for the help everyone.

Lights dont get mad, sad or tired. They just go blinkey, blinkey. (paraphrased from short circuit the movie)

Now if these are icans, then it will stress the filament and cause them to fail sooner than just turned on and left on for the night.
