Run Light Show Clear Instructions

There are many wonderful patterns in Pascal's triangle and they make excellent designs for Christmas tree lighting. Choose a number pattern from the drop-down box above, set the timing and colour then add it to the instructions for the lighting display. Press the Run Light Show button to see your creation.

During your display each light will stay on for one second so setting a light to come on every 1 second effectively means that light stays on for the whole display time.

Patterns chosen further down the drop-down list may overwrite some of the lights in the patterns chosen higher up the list.
