I recall someone saying there is a manual for Vixen.

The best place I found for info. is http://christmasinshirley.com/wiki/i...xen_How-To%27s. Also http://www.christmasinshirley.com/wi...hp?title=Vixen will help you with some of the requirements of the Vixen software. When I first started with Vixen this site helped alot with being able to walk through it as you learn, and in my case go back several times.........

I will look on the referenced sites.

I used Vixen last Christmas, but didn't get into the details too much.
I made some of my own sequences and used the preview stuff too.

I know it can do more like handle triggers or inputs.

I was thinking about putting three cute buttons out near the curb.
Button #1 would be for starting show #1
Button #2 would be for starting show #2
Button #3 would be used for turning on the amplifier for the outdoor speakers.

I have a couple PLCs to help with the timing and delays, but I would like to use an input on my computer to get Vixen to start a specific show.

You can also find some video on you tube here and here that can help with the basics.
