Auto Smoke Machine Controls

Post by DVJDeano »

Hi Guys, just a Newbie to the site here so go easy on me.

I'm trying to set up a 'Auto Smoke' button so that i can click it once and leave the machine to auto smoke, say 10 second burst and then wait 5 minutes, before repeating the process.

I guess you need to create a Smoke On, and Smoke Off first then create a stepped sequence, but seeing as I'm new to it all I'm not sure which way to do it.
I will also want to create buttons for example a 'Top Up' so i can click on a preset value (10 seconds or whatever) and it will run for that amount of time then revert back to the auto smoke.

Any help would be appriciated.

Hi,

You can do all of that using switches or scenes.

Video tutorial here (programming scenes and switches is the same): http://www.nicolaudie.com/nicolaudietv/ ... tut=suite2
