cue.
It is also possible to assign a specific cue directly to a hotkey - see hotkeys.
Useful DMX in functions for the cue pages
There's also a number of useful DMX in options if LightJockey is primarily run remotely from a DMX
console. The options makes it fairly simple to create 'sequential' pages, e.g. pages for different songs
at live performances.
Latch Current Cue from Page - Latches the currently selected cue on the page.
Previous/Next Cue Page - selects the previous or next cue page.
Latch Previous/Next Cue from Page - latches the previous or next cue from the cue page.
Select Previous/Next Cue from Page - selects but do not latch the previous or next cue from the cue
page.
Cue control columns and slot colors
Slot on/off state
Slots on/off state buttons
Use the on/off buttons to the left of the sequence slots to enable and disable individual sequences in
the cue. When a slot is disabled it the sequence is still a part of the cue but it has no effect on the
output generated by the cue. The default state for a sequence is the enabled state and the button is
green and in raised state - when a sequence is disabled the button is red and depressed. The
sequence state can be toggled by clicking on the button or by using the keyboard hotkeys.
Columns
No - this column contains the sequence number. The cue uses the sequence number as reference to
the sequence, so all changes to a sequence are automatically carried over to the cue.
Sequence - this column contains the name of the sequence (if any).
Type - This column contains the sequence type (if any). Currently the sequence type has no effect but
is reserved for future use.
Scene - this shows the current scene of the sequence in the slot in the form X:Y where X is the
current scene, and Y the maximum number of scenes in the sequence. If the sequence only contains
one scene this field will read static.
ST - short for scene time. This shows the scene time for the current scene in the sequence. Unless
the time has been scaled by the cue time control (see later) this will be the scene timed that was
originally saved with the sequence.
FT - sort for fade time. This shows the fade time for the current scene in the sequence. Unless the
time has been scaled by the cue time control (see later) this will be the fade timed that was originally
saved with the sequence.
Status - this column shows the current status of the sequence slot. If a sequence is present and the
status field is empty it means that the sequence is executing the current scene. See below for an
explanation of the different states.
Loop - the cue also allows different types of loop control settings for each sequence in the cue (see
sequence slot loop options).
If no loop options has been set the default value of this field is fwd which indicates that the sequence
runs in a default loop, first to last scene, then loop to first scene again.
Trig - this field shows the trig source of the sequence (see trigging sequences in the cue)
