There are menu items on the Edit menu to select all address positions (Select All), to
‘un-select’ all address positions (Select None) and to selectively select or un-select
groups of addresses (Select Some).
It is also possible to select a range of addresses by clicking on the first address position
then, while holding down the Shift key, click on the last address position.
NOTE: You need to revert to the white arrow mouse pointer (by clicking on the Pointer
button) to change the selection without affecting the state of devices and address
positions.
Ramping the Analogue Value
Select address position 72 only. This should have a device in it that has an analogue
channel. Display the Device Properties dialogue box for this device. Click on the Set to
Normal button, just to make sure all properties have their default values. Now click on the
Ramp checkbox.
This enables several new properties that can be changed by the user. These are used to
command the True Loop Emulator to change the analogue value of a device over time. The
first value (labelled ‘to’ in the dialogue box) is the ‘target’ value. The analogue value will
change from the current analogue value to the target analogue value. The change happens
in steps; the rate at which it does this is determined by the two values labelled ‘at’ and ‘per’.
The ‘at’ value determines the step height; this is in analogue value units. The ‘per’ value
determines the step width; this is in seconds.
