Sequences

Sequences are essentially grouped sets of outputs with associated timing. Whether a sequence is a pre-programmed light show, or a coordinated set of motor movements that corresponds to a robotic action, sequences are a useful shorthand for grouping outputs together.

In order to build a sequence, go to the equation menu, press the blue plus button, and choose the fourth option: "sequence" to pull up the sequence page.

1. Once on the sequence page, shown in image I, press the black plus in the bottom right corner to open the sequence menu. There are two options - output and timing.

2. Select any output you want, for example set the glow module to red.

3. When you hit timing, a timing widget will be added into your sequence after the latest output. By default, it will be set to 1 second, as shown in image II. By tapping on the time, you pull up a scrollable menu that can be used to adjust the time in minutes, seconds, and milliseconds, as shown in image III.

4. Add all of outputs and timings you want, name your sequence by tapping on the name at the top of the screen ("SEQUENCE" by default), and hit "add sequence" at the bottom of the page to add the sequence to your equation, as shown in image IV.

You can move outputs around in a sequence by holding down on them and dragging them, and you can delete either an output or a timing by double tapping on it.
