Swap Sequences - will swap the two sequences, if the target slot is already used.
Copy Sequence - will copy the sequence line into the target slot.
See cue control columns for an explanation on the individual columns of the cue control and cue
control columns and slot colors for an explanation on the different colors used to indicate the different
states of sequences in the cue.
Sequence slot priorities
Since it is perfectly possible to write several sequences that addresses the same fixture/effect; and to
include these sequences in the same cue - the cue has a simple sequence priority system: The
higher the slot number, the higher the output priority
Example: A sequence in slot 1 addresses a fixture color wheel and sends it to red. Another sequence
in slot 2 also addresses the same fixture and color wheel but sends it to yellow. Since slot 2 has
priority over slot 1 the resulting output will send the color to yellow.
The priority system works on individual DMX control channels so it is perfectly possible (and often
desirable) to access individual effects on a fixture from different sequences in the cue.
Trigging sequences in the cue
Once placed in a sequence slot, a sequence containing more than one scene is trigged (advanced to
the next scene) using one of 3 different trig sources:
Auto-trig - sequence is trigged automatically using the preprogrammed scene time
Manual trig - sequence is only trigged by a user action
Audio trig - sequence is trigged by an audio trig from the audio analyzer
For more details on trig options see trigging sequences in the cue. For further options on sequence
timings and sequence loop options see Advanced Cue Options below.
Cue control functions
Click Select All to select (highlight) all sequences in the cue. If one or more sequences are already
selected, click to de-select all sequences.
Click either icon to manually trig sequences within the cue (see trigging
sequences in the cue)
Click to stop a sequence or restart a stopped sequence. A stopped sequence will not trig
on any trig source. If no sequences are highlighted all sequences will be stopped or started when the
button is clicked. The stop status is NOT saved with the cue.
Click to set the trig mode of the sequences (Auto trig, Manual trig and Audio Trig). See
trigging sequences in the cue
Enables/Disables sequences.
Disabled sequences do not contribute to the output of the cue. The state is saved with the cue, and
will be used the next time the cue is loaded, providing Preferences -> Cue Preferences -> Restore
Sequence Enabled State is enabled.
It is also possible to enable/disable sequences remotely for example by using DMX in, keyboard
hotkeys or the 2532 direct access.
New cue
Click to clear the current cue. If the current cue is not saved before it is cleared it will be lost.
Saving and loading cues
Click this to bring up the save cue dialog.
Click this to bring up the list of cues. Use this list to select an existing cue and load into the cue
control. See also transparent cues.
