Gabzqc Posted January 14, 2005 Report Posted January 14, 2005 Hi, has anyone else noticed that if you hold down the blackout button rather than tapping it once to blackout, all the channels strobe, or flash very quickly, it also happens on the phantom frog, is this normal, and if so what use is it for?

Martin Posted January 14, 2005 Report Posted January 14, 2005 I guess that is very normal, if you hold down a key on your computer keyboard then it will also keep writing that letter... Quote Move while dark! -> GOGOGO! Thank you Zero for the FR 5402
Haytech Posted January 17, 2005 Report Posted January 17, 2005 Hi, if it is as Gabz described it is a painful strobing - as it ends up killing some lightbulbs and fuses *g* I won´t try it while our dimmers connected...

sp Posted January 17, 2005 Report Posted January 17, 2005 Well there isn't any real need to hold blackout is there? If you want to be able to hold down a button to produce a blackout, u could program a sub with a blackout then solo it when needed. sp Quote
Gabzqc Posted January 17, 2005 Author Report Posted January 17, 2005 it really is painful! thats why i was wondering if it was normal! didn't hold it down for much longer.... //gabz Quote
K-Nine Posted January 18, 2005 Report Posted January 18, 2005 It sounds like the Blackout button is auto-repeating when held down, something that most of the front panel buttons do and in some cases is desirable. However, I suspect it is not desirable in the case of the Blackout button ... maybe the auto-repeat should be disabled ? Quote K-Nine : Technically Advanced Roving Dog In Space Bran Media | Myspace
sp Posted January 18, 2005 Report Posted January 18, 2005 Well if that's easily sorted then I'd say definitely yes. I don't think you'd ever want such a painful strobe, would you?... sp Quote
Haytech Posted January 19, 2005 Report Posted January 19, 2005 Hi, Vote me in for deactivating autorepeat I don´t like strobing anyway :-) Quote Sebastian H.

GLX Posted January 19, 2005 Report Posted January 19, 2005 Just press it once then, why would you want to wreck your gear? :roll: Quote
K-Nine Posted January 20, 2005 Report Posted January 20, 2005 Just press it once then, why would you want to wreck your gear? :roll: Good point ... it's designed as a press once for blackout, press again to remove blackout Frog Reference 5558 - Disable autorepeat on Blackout button.
