DMX512 REFERENCE GUIDE

Timing Channels

Channel Functions

Timing channel control improves the timed moves of certain groups of parameters. We provide three timing channels,
one for Focus (Pan and Tilt), one for color parameters and one for beam parameters. Timing channels support time
values of up to six minutes.

A timing value of zero is full speed. A time value of 100% (or 255 in DMX) causes the associated parameter(s) to follow
cue fade time (console time) rather than the timing channel.
