fearthisinc Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I am looking into purchasing the pro kit and was reading through the manual but can't seem to find anything regarding the modes of operation.. I like the idea of putting on a show but is there an "all on" function? For example is there a switch that will go from doing the sequences to just having all the lights stay on?

oilmoney Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Not that I know of but if you wanted to use your controller for that you could turn the channels on in the hardware utility but you can only turn on one controllers worth of channels at once....

Brian Mitchell Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 You simply write a sequence with all the lights on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightzilla Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) I usually make an all on New Animation Sequence (no music) or you can make a "all on sequence" even if you want music. Then all the lights stay on & if you have a 2, 3 or 4 colour display then you can have the sequence go from one colour to the other. You can have it run continuously. That is how I do it & then the whole display runs with all the lights on or switching colours. Edited June 23, 2014 by lightzilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayburn Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 If you use the Simple Show Builder, it will give you the option to turn on the lights between shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santas Helper Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) My display would be too bright to just have all lights on for a long period of time. Jim has a good point too. Long period of "full power" can warm up some cords, light fixtures/lights or breakers. Just a thought.

lightzilla Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 just be careful of current loads when "all on"That can be true. That is one reason I use Leds. I can have them "all on" no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why you would want them all on at the same time for the folks up in those jet airliners to see your display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live about 2 miles from the airport and one of the flight paths is pretty much over my house.Traffic seems to be picking up in past years for some reason LOL I might need to put a big red "X" on my roof.

Steven Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 just be careful of current loads when "all on"One year, my neighbor asked: "What does it look like if you turn everything on at once?"So I did. It looked very bright, for about 10 seconds. Then there was a "clunk" as the circuit breaker tripped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
