CHAPTER SEVEN
7. Environments, the scheduler, script files
This chapter contains: Recording an environment; playing back an
environment; other environment controls; the scheduler; script files.
An environment allows you to store the state of the playbacks on the
console, which includes all memories and chases which are turned on.
They can have a fade in and fade out time. Environments can be useful in
a show if you need to turn on several memories at the same time.
The Azure’s Scheduler system can be set up to turn on environments at a
given time or date. This is used to run a timed show automatically, for
exhibition or installation applications.
The Azure can store 2 pages of 10 environments.
