Auto Pilot Button

 

Auto Pilot Buttons allows the user to create a button that gives the illusion that a live person is controlling the light show to switch to the next button every interval of time. The Auto Pilot Button contains a list of buttons in the order they were pressed and recalls them in that order every number of minutes.

To create a Auto Pilot button you must have some sequence buttons already programmed in Enlighten on any of the pages that are set up. Once Sequence Buttons have been created we can create a Auto Pilot button. Right click on the Sequence Button Page or pressing the 'Create New Button'. The dialog below will appear.

Select the Auto Pilot Button option and press Start. The Dialog Below Will appear.

From this Dialog we can select the interval in time that every next button in the list will be pressed. The Beats button is disabled in Enlighten.

At this point we will press all the buttons to include in this auto pilot button. Basically we press the buttons and the auto pilot button records the buttons as they are pressed into a list. Remember as noted in the Sequence Button Section top half of the button releases all in the group or page, and presses just the requested button, while pressing the button on the bottom half will stack or mix buttons on the page and play them at the same time. Once all the buttons you want to include have been pressed we can proceed to the next step.

Now we name the button and press the save button. The new button will appear in the new button section of the current page. Move the button to the new position on the page. To run this auto pilot button we need to make sure the beat detect in the middle bottom is running.

Like the sequence button Auto Pilot Buttons can be placed into groups and can also be renamed, copied to other pages, Assigned keyboard or MIDI shortcuts, or me renamed.
