9 Working with the Cue List 111
to cue 5. Channel 1 will be “auto blocked” in cue 5. Even though it is now at the same value as the
previous cue, the original concept of a move instruction is maintained.
When the block instruction has been recorded, updated, or stored while in blind, any tracked values
the block was applied to will be displayed in white. Auto blocks are displayed in white, with a white
underscore.
Channel level blocks and auto-blocks are indicated in the cue list by a “b”, representing a partial
block.
Preheat
Preheat can be used to warm filaments in the cue immediately preceding an intensity upfade from
0. Preheat values can be assigned channels individually in patch.
Preheat is assigned on a cue (or cue part) basis using the {Preheat} softkey and, if assigned, any
channel in that cue with a preheat value assigned in patch will fade to that intensity in the cue
immediately preceding the cue with the preheat flag. See “Attributes” on page 63. Cues with a
preheat flag will display an “P” in the preheat flag column (indicated by a “P” at the top of the
column).
When a channel is in a preheat state, a “Ph” is displayed in the intensity field of that channel. When
a preheat is executed, the preheat value is established using the upfade time of the associated cue.
It is possible to hold the [Data] key to see the actual preheat values.
