Clear Button activation and timing

I recently did some programming in anger for a touring play the other day and was reminded of the problem with pressing/activating the "Clear" button being horribly hit and miss. Counted seven seconds at one point between tapping and the LED. Any news on a next software update that was to sort this problem please?

Hi Paul,

We’re not aware of any problems related to this. If programmer data is cleared by pressing the clear button, the LED will go out straight away. The only time this will be delayed is if Programmer Time is enabled (found on the last encoder in the Z key)- in which case the LED will go off after the Programmer Time has completed. 

Is this what you’re experiencing?

Hello,

As soon as the Clear button is pressed first the selection will be cleared, and if pressed a second time the Programmer will immediately start to fade out using the Programmer Time - this includes fixture intensities and any other parameters. These can be seen fading in the Output Window (SHIFT + VIEW to quickly view this). 

Hope that helps
