Cue Playback

143

The pending cue contains an instruction to set channel 1 to color 12 and the color

parameter has a manual time. Press [Go] to activate the cue. Channel 1 color does not

change.

As you move the fader up manually, channel 1 color moves proportionally from color 5 to

color 12. Any parameters with timing will start their moves at the press of [Go] and be

unaffected by the manual control.

Manual timing can also be set at a cue category level:

• [Record] [Cue] [5] [Time] {Manual} [Enter]

Manual Intensity Override

An intensity transition may be taken over manually and the transition captured by dropping the
fader down until it reaches the percentage of cue completion (i.e. if the cue is 50% complete, when
the fader is manually dropped to 50%, the intensity transitions will be captured and the intensity
portion of the cue completed by moving the fader manually between 50% and full or anywhere in
between). If the fader is dropped below 50%, the fader will fade all intensity values proportionally
from their captured values to their previous values.

If a fade is captured and the faders are not reset to 100% prior to the next press of the [Go] button,
the fader will automatically reset to 100% upon cue execution. Alternatively, you can set the fader
to 0% before executing the next cue to capture the cue for manual intensity control when the [Go]
button is pressed if the fader is set to proportional control. Intensity control is released from the
fader when the cue is considered complete (when the fader is brought back to 100%).

If a pending cue has any manual control properties, you may preset the fader to zero, the console
will automatically set the fader to zero when the [Go] button is pressed. The master fader pair must
be manually set.

Manual intensity override is not possible if there is any manual timing in the cue, as the fader is
already occupied with that control.

Manual Override

Manual override allows the master fader pair control of all the parameters in a transition state.
When {Fader Controls} {Man Override} & [Load] are pressed, all activity on the fader pair is
frozen.

The faders can then be used to manually complete the cue transition for all parameters.The left
fader controls the intensity upfade and all non-intensity parameters, while the right fader controls all
intensity downfade actions. Manual control override automatically releases when the cue is
complete.
