Manual Timing at a Cue Level
It is possible to assign a time of “manual”, for manual parameter transition through the associated
fader. See “Cue Playback” on page 215. Manual times are assigned by using the {Manual} softkey
that is displayed when recording a cue.
[Record] <Cue> [4] [Time] {Manual} [Enter] - applies a manual time. If the cue had
previously been given split times, would apply a manual to the upfade, focus, color, and beam
times. If the cue had a single time, all of the timing would be “manual” and controlled by the
fader.
[Record] <Cue> [4] [Time] [Time] [Manual] [Enter] - applies a manual intensity time to the
downfade.
[Record] <Cue> [4] {Color} [Time] [Manual] [Enter] - applies a manual time to any color
data changes in cue 4.
Non-intensity Parameter Category Timing
Timing can also be applied for focus, color, and beam parameter categories at a cue level. By
default, FCB timing is the same as intensity upfade time. Once FCB timing is different than intensity
upfade time, those times are no longer affected by intensity upfade changes.
When you apply a time to an individual parameter category and that category has no movement,
the time is displayed in gray. The specified timing will remain in gray until that category is provided
with a move instruction, at which point it the timing will display in white.
[Record] <Cue> [2] {Color} [Time] [7] [Enter] - records cue 2 with a cue level color time of 7.
[Record] <Cue> [2] {Color} [Time] [Enter] - resets the color time of cue 2 back to the default
value.
[Record] <Cue> [2] [Time] [Time] [Time] [7] [Enter] - records cue 2 with a cue level focus
time of 7. In this example, each press of the [Time] key steps through each timing value (up
time, down time, focus time, color time and beam time.
[Record] <Cue> [2] [Time] [7] [Enter]- records cue 2 and puts a time of 7 on all parameter
categories (if FCB all had the same times to begin with).
Note:
It is not necessary to rerecord a cue to alter stored timing data. You can simply
redefine the time by specifying the cue and re-entering the time value(s).
[Cue] [5] [Time] [8] [Enter] - Redefines the all category times to 8
seconds (If FCB all had the same timing).
[Cue] [2] {Color} [Time] [5] [Enter] - Redefines color time to 5
seconds.
[Cue] [3] {Focus} [Time] [-] [2] [Enter] - Removes 2 seconds from
the current time.
[Cue] [7] {Beam} [Time] [+] [3] [Enter] - Adds 3 seconds to the
current time.
