Offset
When you select at time the Offset column to its right will be disabled. You then set
the specific time of day in the Time/Offset column two to the right. When you select
any one of the four astronomical events, the Offset column become enabled (see
below). Before you use any astronomical events, you must set up your location in
Show Options|Venue Setup and the correct time and daylight savings time settings
using the Palette Control Panel.
Only when the When column is set to an astronomical event will this column be
active:
Your choice is to fire the event exactly on time (no offset) or before or after the
astronomical event. If you choose before or after, the Time/Offset column to the
right will become active.
Time/Offset
This column will only be active if either the When column is set to at time or an
astronomical event is scheduled an you have set the Offset column to before or
after. If the When column is set to at time, enter in the desired time in this column
using the twenty-four hour (HH:MM:SS) syntax. If you're offsetting either before or
after an astronomical event, enter the desired time offset here.

# Repeats
By default, this column is set to a value of zero. That means that once the event
happens, it will only happen once. If you want the event to happen multiple times
within this day, enter a none-zero value. When you edit this field, you can type a
repeat value or roll one in using the wheel.
Note:
Regardless of the value of # Repeats, events will never roll over into the
next day.
Repeat Delay
When the # of Repeats is none-zero, this column will become active. The default
repeat time is 1 hour (01:00:00). The minimum repeat time is one minute, but any
value greater than 60 seconds is valid (for example, 90 seconds or 00:01:30).
