    Variable power lighting test

    Is there a way to test the 0-10V variable power on a light without just writing myriad codes using the ramp functions?

    Something like, test now, ramp from 0-100, pause at 100, ramp 100-0.

    With the new firmware update just write

    Set XX

    Where XX is the percent you want to try. You no longer need profiles for set percentages.

    You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.

    But I want to see the actual ramping, not just set a percentage.

    So rather than writing a code to ramp from 0-100 five minutes from now and then sitting there waiting, I was wondering if there was some kind of instant test.

    Or will setting to 100 ramp up to 100? And then subsequently setting to 0 ramp down to.... whatever my light will do at 0?

    There is not a preview function for profiles. There is a preview function in the wizard graphical style.
