Output sequence 2:
This example shows a simple fluorescent lighting simulation. Here is only one output
used, however, the lamp switches not only on and off but it simulates the typical start
of a fluorescent lamp.
In step 1, the intensity is set to a small value (4%). This is supposed to represent the
preliminary annealing of the tube. In step 2 the lamp tries to ignite, so it becomes
shortly brighter (50%), but it does not make it yet and it becomes darker in step 3
again (4%). In step 4 is another ignition attempt (70%) which does not succeed.
Therefore, the intensity in step 5 is set back to 5%. Only in step 6 succeeds the
"tube" to ignite. The beginning and the end of the loop are now set exactly to this
step 6. Thus, the sequence now plays only this step 6 (lamp on) as long as the
sequence is turned on. Only when the sequence is turned off, the steps 7 to 10 are
reached and the lamp goes off in several stages (80%  60%  40%  20% 
0%).
These are just simple examples. Of course you can also expand such sequences
much further to achieve even incredible effect.
