•
Cue selection. If Solo is off and cues are loaded with Cue n … or Cue n … Go, they are merged
in with previous cues. If Solo is on or cues are loaded with Edit Cue n, the cue editor is cleared
first. Note that multiple cues can be started at the same time with these commands. They also
cause the appropriate events to be recorded that clear the cue and load cues into the macro player.
•
Cue clearing. The Clear Cue command clears the cue editor, and records an event which clears
the cue in the macro player.
•
Chase starting. The Chase Go and Chase n Go commands stop any running chase in the chase
editor and start a new one. They also record an event which starts a chase in the macro player.
•
Chase stopping. The Chase, Chase Stop, Clear Chase and Clear All commands stop any running
chase in the chase editor, and record an event which stops the chase in the macro player.
In addition, a macro has a loop mode, which can be Hold (hold forever on the last event), Once (stop
after the last event), or Repeat (start over after the last event). The mode can also be set to Step
(manual step, stop after last event) or StepRpt (manual step, start over after last event), in which case
the macro ignores the clock and instead waits for Enter to be pressed before playing each group of
events having the same timestamp.
MIDI
A standard interface used primarily by musical instruments. The CP-100 has a MIDI input, and can be
programmed to respond to received Note On and Note Off commands by starting and stopping cues,
chases and macros. It also has a MIDI output, which is currently unused.

Page
A page is a set of meanings assigned to the six dimmer faders or to the six submaster faders. A
dimmer page contains a list of dimmer and fixture numbers and levels assigned to each dimmer fader;
a submaster page contains the cue, chase and/or macro numbers assigned to each submaster fader. A
show can contain up to 99 pages for each of these sets of faders.
The faders may be operated in a mode such that when a page number is changed, they aren't
immediately reassigned to their new meanings unless they are inactive. (A fader is active if it is
raised, if its Flash switch is held, or, in the case of submaster faders, the submaster was invoked with
its Go switch.) Faders that are active retain their assignments from the previous page until they are
deactivated, at which point the new assignments take effect. While a fader retains its assignment from
a previous page, the LED in the corresponding Flash switch flickers as a reminder to the user.
