Control of P-BUS Devices

P-BUS device control modes
There are two modes of P-BUS device control, as follows.
P-BUS trigger mode: Operating a previously specified button outputs the
command for an action assigned to that button.
P-BUS timeline mode: Carrying out a keyframe effect under the control of the
center control panel controls external devices.
In the setup, select which of P-BUS trigger mode and P-BUS timeline mode to
use.
