10 Automation Cues

An Automation Cue is an action/demand that is sent from the DC-Post to any external device
connected to the DC-Post for the purpose of being inserted into a Show Playlist. Upon installation of
the DC-Post, Automation Cues can be predefined by the operator, transferred from an “xml” file, or
added manually. Automation Cues can be added to CPL's and SPL's using CineLister.

A Macro Automation Cue consists of two parts, an automation cue and a trigger cue. Trigger Cues are
explained fully in Section “Trigger Cues” below. A trigger cue is an action that is sent to the DC-Post,
whereas an automation cue is sent from the DC-Post. Also, Macro Cues are are a sequence of
actions, whereas an Automation Cue is only one action.
