Kyle Whitaker Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 I have about 8 sequences running in the show. In the "Background" there is an animation sequence that fires up the projector on box 0A channel 16. with all on for 1 minute on a loop. I can't tell how many times it loops, I can't even remember how to build a loop. The problem is that when the show starts up about sequence number 6 the power on channel 16 turns off and then turns on again. It takes a minute or so for the projector to warm back up then. I am not sure why it turns off except maybe at the end of the sequence of loops maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Fischer Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 You don't need to add a loop for the background sequence - the sequence will loop automatically. Make sure the background sequence only has one event, and that the event lasts the entire sequence (e.g. if it's off at the end, you'll get the blinky goodness you're seeing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Make sure the background sequence only has one event, and that the event lasts the entire sequence.To make sure your background sequence is correct, open it in the sequence editor, and hover the mouse over a cell in the channel. Assuming you haven't disabled tooltips in the display preferences, you should get a popup window that tells you, among other things, "Completely on", and the "Event Times". The event times must start at 0.00 and end at the "Total Time" as seen in the bottom left. As Tim said, remove any loops. They aren't needed in a background sequence because it automatically loops. Even if you didn't have loops, it wouldn't hurt to re-save the sequence. Of course, make sure this channel doesn't appear in any other sequence. The Verifier will find that.

Kyle Whitaker Posted December 11, 2013 Author Share Posted December 11, 2013 What is weird is that I run shows every 30 minutes and it doesn't happen every show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Whitaker Posted December 12, 2013 Author Share Posted December 12, 2013 I removed the loop and added it back into the background. I ran the show on demand and it turned off at the beginning of the sequence; however, I know for a fact that it doesn't happen everytime. I am baffled.
