Your SmartDancer will come with 11<\/del>\u00a0 22 formations, BUT you can create your OWN custom formations using the Capture feature.
\nAlign your dancers into the formation you want to create then press the CAPTURE button on the SD Controller via the [OPTIONS] submenu.\u00a0 Output will look something like the following.

Copy and paste this entry into the *formations<\/strong> notecard, prefixed by a name you wish to appear on a menu button.\u00a0 This name should be from 10 to not more than 12 characters.\u00a0 In the example below, I named this line formation LineBlk<\/strong><\/span>.\u00a0 It must always be capitalized anywhere else you refer to it but I allow for mixed case here soits easier to read.<\/p>\n

The *formations<\/strong> notecard is used exclusively for formations usable by dancers 01_J<\/strong> thru 01_R.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The dancers entry is the number of dancers<\/strong> in your formation.<\/p>\n

The DDMoveTau<\/strong> is the number of seconds<\/span><\/strong> it will take to complete a formation transition (from one formation to another formation).\u00a0 This value can be overridden via the [Groupings] submenu using the MoveSpeed<\/strong> button.\u00a0 Anytime you add or change a formation you must reset your SD Controller.<\/p>\n

You execute a formation transition via the [Formations]<\/strong> <\/span>button on the main-menu.\u00a0 Simply pressing the button-name associated with the formation you want will cause the current formation to change into the newly selected formation.\u00a0 All button names will be automatically be CAPITALIZED.<\/p>\n

The sequencer command to cause a formation transition during show\/run time is:\u00a0 (Also, you MUST capitalize your formation name otherwise it will always use the LAST formation<\/em>)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Example:<\/p>\n

1,Form,LINEBLK| 0.1<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

A common mistake is not allowing enough time, in the example above, 9 seconds, for your formation to complete fully before doing the next thing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
