The Canon FINISH feature is found under CanonOrder which is under [Canons].

It is a preparation feature that causes the Canon to use the CanonAnimation2  automatically along with a HOLD command

AFTER the dancers to their normal CanonAnimation which should be CanonAnimation1.

and then after the LAST dancer completes their  animation CanonAnimation2 , they all automatically revert to the Backing-Animation.  No need for an accurately timed StopCanon command.

Because you can specify a CanonAnimation2 on the *channels nc in the Controller, it makes it easy to change it and try different ones without having to change the CanonAnimation2 on each dancer (animesh/poseball).   And of course you can specify and/or change the CanonAnimation2 at runtime using a *sequencer command.  And, suffice it to say, you can also change the Canon Interval in the controller or at runtime.
