Tip!🌟 Master Checklist: Create, Save & Schedule an Event
### 🎨 Step 1 – Create Your Event
- Adjust **brightness** with the top slider.
- Use the **two effect sliders** to fine-tune the effect (speed, width, fade, etc.).
- Pick your **colors**:
- Box 1 → Primary color
- Box 2 → Secondary color
- Box 3 → Third color *(optional)*
- ⚡ *Tip: Order matters. A black box changes the look when using “Colors Only.”*
- Choose a **palette option**:
- Color 1 | Colors 1 & 2 | Colors Only | Gradient | Random Cycle
- Select an **effect** from the list and preview on your lights.

### 💾 Step 2 – Save Your Event

- Give it a **Name** (e.g., “Christmas Red/Green Fade”).
- Add a **Description** (effect + style).
- Save under **User Created** (for easy access).
- Click **Save** → your event is now in the **Event Catalog**.

### 📅 Step 3 – Schedule Your Event
- Go to **Menu → Schedule**.
- For always-on events, set them as **Daytime/Nighttime Defaults**.
- To schedule a custom time:
- Tap **Scheduled Event** (upper right).
- Scroll or type the first 3 letters of the event (press Enter).
- Click to highlight the event.
- Select the **days of the week** (blue box = active).
- Set the **Start Time & Date** (e.g., 6:00 PM, Dec 1).
