The following information can be found in the step-display area:

• Wait-time value of step.
It is possible to simultaneously select several steps and to assign them the
same DMX value. (Step multi-selection):

channel- values.
The use of steps
Each scene contains a number of steps played chronologically and in
sequence. A step can have up to 512 DMX levels from 0 to 255. Each
channel has a different value. Each step represents a definite DMX state of
each channel associated with fade-time and wait-time. For instance, if you
wish your lights to move triangularly, you will have to use 3 steps and specify
fade-time between each step. Only one step is necessary to create a
motionless scene.
All the channels can be changed from the cursor window 7).
Changes are directly saved in the current step.
There are many ways of programming steps, see Cursor
window options chapter.
After assigning your channels DMX values, it is possible to change fade time
and wait time for all your steps.
