BOLERO

Effect Section

A pre-programmed chase sequence may be selected from those available. The patterns
available depend on whether a BOLERO 12 or a BOLERO 24 is being used. For the
BOLERO 12 chase patterns 1 to 12 are available. On the BOLERO 24 patterns 1 to 24
may be used. The channels over which the chase runs may be individually selected.
The Effect section controls use is detailed below.

The Channel Buttons

This button selects the channels over which the chosen pattern will operate. After
pressing the button the manual section LEDs and flash buttons are used to select
which channels are incorporated. Pressing a flash key will toggle that channel between
being in or out of the chase range. If the LED is lit then that channel will be included.
The desk will remember not only whith channels to include but in which order they
were selected, i.e. if the flash buttons were pressed in the following order 1-4-6-2-9-
12-10 then the chase pattern would run through the channels in that order.
This configuration may now be used by pressing the «CHANNELS» button again. The
channel range will not change until the button is pressed.

Speed Control

This control is used to select the step rate of the Effect section output. It's range covers
approximately one step every 0,1 second, at the top of it's travel (MAX.) to one step
every 2 seconds near the bottom of it's travel. If the control is moved to the very
bottom of it's travel, then the chase will be HELD and the output can be stepped
though manuallly using the «START/STEP» button. The LED above the control will flash
in time with the selected chase speed (one flash per step) unless it is in the manual step
mode in which case the LED will be on only while the « START/STEP» button is pressed.

START/STEP Button

If the SPEED control is in the HOLD position then the «START/STEP» button will advance
the current Effect sequence one step for every press of the button. If the SPEED control
is in any other position then pressing the «START/STEP» button will have a different
use. In this instance when the button is pressed the current Effect will be held. This is
confirmed by the SPEED LED being lit continuously. The blackout will be enabled (the
on/off LED will go off), and the Effect will be reset to it's first step.
A Second press of the button will restart the Effect from the beginning and remove the
blackout. If whilst the Effect is held the «ON/OFF» button is pressed instead of the
«START/STEP» button then the chase output will be turned on but the chase would
remain held.

Level Control

The LEVEL control regulates the output level from the Effect section.
If the «ON/OFF» button has been pressed then this control makes no difference to the
visible output of the desk.
