42.13.11 Activate playbacks on start
This option enables one or more playbacks to be activated on start up. The options include:
• None
• PB1
• Last Active
• Wing 1 PB 1
• Cue Stack 1
• Macro 1
• Lamp On All
When set to “Activate Playback PB” then when MagicQ starts PB1 is activated. This can then be used to activate other playbacks
and potentially run a complete show without user intervention.
When set to “Last active” then after a power up or a reset, MagicQ will reactivate Cue Stacks that were running when the console
was powered down or reset. MagicQ will start the Cue Stacks from the step that they were previously on.
Note that all the options except for the PB1 option are only available on MagicQ consoles or on MagicQ PC systems with MagicQ
Wings or Interfaces attached.
42.13.12 Run in Execute Window
This setting starts the console / MagicQ PC up in the Execute Window .
42.14 Network Settings
42.14.1 IP Address
The console stores the TCP/IP address and subnet mask for the network interface. The addresses are stored as part of the console
configuration rather than as part of the show data. Thus erasing show data does not affect their configuration.
For communicating with Art-Net the TCP/IP address must be set to a number in the range 2.x.x.x (e.g. 2.0.0.10) and the Sub net
address must be set to 255.0.0.0.
On MagicQ PC the TCP/IP address of the system must be configured through Windows, Control Panel. On Mac it must be
configured through System Preferences. In addition the MagicQ software must also be told the TCP/IP address so that it knows
which network interface to use. In Setup, View Settings, Network set the IP address to be the same as the network port of the PC
/ Mac you wish to use.
