Bijou

through the Cues, they load in strict numerical

order. This is the preferred way of operating in

most theatrical productions. But there are times

when you may need to run a production out of

sequence.

Example:

The production is a dance concert and each

dance number has it’s own sequence of Cues

using Cues 1-100.

On the third night of the performance, a soloist

breaks a toe and cannot perform a number. The

dance number uses Cues 34-46. Since the

dancer cannot perform the number, the Cue se-

quence is now 1-33 to 47-100.

To make it possible to still automatically run the

entire show in sequence:

1. Press [Cue/List] [Cue/List] to go to the Cue

Preview Screen.

2. Use the [Next] key 33 times OR press [Cue]

[3] [3] [Enter] (which positions the page on

screen) to Cue 33.

3. Press [F2] (Link key, see Figure 62).

4. Enter the number of the Cue that is intended

to Link to Cue 33 (in this case [4] [7] [Enter].)

Now, as you run the Cues, the Bijou ignores

Cues 34-46.

If, the next night, the operator finds out that the

broken toe was only a sprain and the number is

put back in the performance, the operator can

clear the Link. To do so, go to the Cue List

Screen and change the Link for Cue 33 to [F2] [0]

[Enter]. Putting a 0 in the Link column clears it.

Now all 100 Cues run in order.

LOAD CUE OR GO TO CUE

The [Load] key is also used as a Go-To-Cue key.

The Default Setup (Factory Setup)(see Figure 63)

of the Bijou is for the [Load] key to load a Cue

onto either the XY or AB Cross Fader ready to

fade into it in time; by either using the Fader han-

dles or the [Go] button. Pressing the [Go] button

slows reaction time. When the [Load] key is set
