CUE 1 TIME 5 ENTER 10 ENTER	Changes the time of Memory 2 to 5 seconds up and 10 seconds down

Times

If you assign a time of 10 seconds up and 5 seconds down, the dimmers that are up in the previous state and not in the state in question will go to zero over 5 seconds at the same time as the dimmers in the new state are coming up over 10 seconds. This will result in a crossfade.
