Using the Execute List
The execute list can be used to trigger actions on other faders, as well as macros, or snapshots.
Additionally, you can enter instructions that sync the “Go” of other cue lists.
When you press {Execute}, a dialog box appears. This provides a list of the available analog
triggers and MIDI triggers. Also, fields are available to enter specific data relating to the macro,
snapshot, cue number and cue list that you wish to execute.
Entering macro, snapshot, cue number and cue lists can be done directly from the command line or
you can navigate the dialogue box to enter the data.
To trigger a macro:
• [Cue] [1] {Execute} [Macro] [5] [Delay] [7] [Enter] - triggers Macro 5, seven seconds after
cue 1 is executed. If you had not specified a delay, the macro will execute as soon as the cue
is executed.
To trigger a snapshot:
• [Cue] [3] {Execute} [Snapshot] [3] [Enter] - loads snapshot 3 when cue 3 is played back.
To trigger cue lists press:
• [Cue] [1] {Execute} {Cue} [4] [/] <+> [6] [/] [Enter]
• [Cue] [1] {Execute} {Cue} [2] [/] [thru] [5] [/] [Enter]
When cue list triggers are set, the system will automatically execute same numbered cues on the
associated cue list. For example, assume that the last instruction above was applied to cue list 1,
cue 1. When cue 1/1 is executed, any cues numbered “1” in cue list 2 thru 5 will be executed
accordingly. If there is not a cue 1 in those lists, no action is taken on them. If there are cue numbers
on secondary cue lists that are not in cue list 1, those cues are skipped and the subsequent cue
taken as an “out of sequence” cue when triggered.
Therefore, it is valuable to create dummy cues in the master cue list if needed, to ensure that no
cues on the secondary cue lists are skipped.
The “auto-execute” function can be turned off using the dialogue box. When this is done, the
“Execute List” field shows “Auto-Execute Off” in the attribute line for the cue that turns it off.
Removing a trigger:
To remove a trigger, access the cue number and press [Execute], the record target type and press
[Enter].
• [Cue] [5] {Execute} {Cue/Macro/Snapshot} [Enter]
