Designer v1.11.0 Instruction Manual

Program - Timeline Properties

With no presets selected, the Timeline Properties pane is displayed:

Name

Give your timeline a name here, a descriptive name will help you identify the correct timeline when creating basic

triggers and viewing the web interface's status and control pages.

Number

Every timeline has a unique number which is primarily for reference but can be changed if necessary. The

timeline number is used to identify a timeline for creating advanced triggers, for example when using LUA scripts,

and when using the web interface's command line.

Length

The default timeline length is 05:00.00 (5 minutes) and you will need to increase this before placing or extending

presets beyond this time. The maximum timeline length is 24 hours to prevent them becoming unmanageable -

use triggers to stitch together multiple timelines to create longer time frames.

Priority

Use the pull-down to select a priority level for the timeline:

l High - the timeline will never be overridden

l Above normal

l Normal - the timeline behaves normally and can be overridden

l Below normal

l Low - the timeline can not override other timelines

- 67 -
