Daktronics Venus 1500 Ver 1.x - Manual (Page 47)

Schedule 6-4
6.4.1 Event
To choose which message is to be displayed or to set the brightness, click on the upper
(black arrow) button in front of the Event box.
Select the message by
highlighting a library and then
the desired message.
Brightness can be set to
either auto or manual. If
manual brightness is selected,
enter the level of brightness
desired.
m
Note: Brightness is
considered an event and is
entered into the schedule as
such. Once either brightness
or a message is selected as an
event, another event box will
be required for additional
entries.
Click or press < ENTER > to add the event to the schedule.
To clear an event, click on the bottom (white eraser) button in front of the event.
6.4.2 On/Off Time
Each event will begin running at the “on time” where the day of the week is checked
beginning on the “on date.” Each event will stop running at the “off time” where is the
day of the week is checked ending with the “off date.”
Place the cursor under the digit to be changed and move the arrows up and down. Time
will increment/decrement for the whole clock. For example, if the time shown is 11:59
and the cursor is placed under the 9, incrementing once will now place the time at
12:00. The am and pm will change accordingly.
The On Time is the first minute of the selected day when
the event will run. The Off Time is the last minute of the
day when the event will run. The event will run until the
end of the minute (i.e. an Off Time of 11:59 will actually stop running at 11:59:59).
For example, to run a message for one minute at 12:00 noon, both the On Time and
Off Time will be 12:00pm.
Clearing an event will not change the set On/Off times.
m
Note: The On Time for an event must be earlier in the day than the Off Time. If
the On Time is greater than the Off Time, the event will never start. For example, if a
message is to run from 11:00pm to 1:00am, the entry would need to be broken into two
entries. Entry 1 would run from 11:00pm (On Time) to 11:59pm (Off Time) and Entry
2 would run from 12:00am (On Time) to 1:00am (Off Time).
