Section 18: Record Shows
A show is a sequence of recorded scenes in which each step can incorporate different step hold times. Up
to 288 shows with up to 255 steps can be stored to Magic 260s’ memory via 12 show pages. When playing
back a show in auto mode, there is an internal clock that keeps track of every show cue. This allows you to
trigger the show and let it run on its own. You can also set the automatic trigger mode off so you can
manually trigger the show cues via the GO button. YOU MUST FIRST RECORD SCENES BEFORE YOU CAN
RECORD A SHOW. So if you haven’t already done so, do so now.
(1) Press the RECORD button so its green LED flashes.
(2) Press the SHOW button so its green LED flashes. Your display should read the following:
Step Scene Hold Page
000 Start 00:00:0 01
(3)Turn DATA wheel #3 to set and incorporate a delay time for your show if desired. If you add a delay
time, your show will not trigger instantly during playback. The show will be delayed the amount of
time which you set in “Step 000” Hold time. For example, if you set the Hold time to 00:06:0, when
this show is triggered for playback, there will be a 6 second delay before the show begins to play.
Leave the Hold time set to 00:00:0 if you want the show to start immediately when triggered.
(4) Press the ENTER button to store your start setting. Your display should read as follows:
Step Scene Hold Page
001 Empty 00:05:0 01
There is a default hold time of 5 seconds automatically set for each step.
(5) Press the SCENE button so its green LED illuminates ON solid.
(6) The current scene page should be 1 as indicated on the far right of your display. If you wish to
change the scene page, turn DATA wheel #4 until you’ve reached the scene page that contains the
scene you want in show step 1.
(7)Press the FUNCTION button (1-24) that corresponds to the scene you want for the current show step.
The relevant red FUNCTION LED should illuminate ON solid. Your display should also list the page #
and scene # below “Scene”.
(8) As previously stated, there is a 5 second hold time automatically set for each show step. If you wish to
change this hold time, turn DATA wheel #3 to set your new step hold time.
