11 Working with a Single Cue List 183
For Example:
Cue 5 is active and onstage. Channels 5-20 are currently referencing preset 1. You make
changes to channels 5-9. The data for these changes is now manual. Press:
• [Record Only] [Enter] [Enter]
If there were other changes on stage, you could have commanded:
• [5] [thru] [9] [Record Only] [Enter] [Enter]
Only the manual data will be recorded as an update to cue 5. The reference to preset 1 for
channels 5-9 is broken and now the cue will display the absolute data rather than the
reference indicator.
Update Break Nested
This is used only when presets that have embedded palette data are modified in a cue. If you wish
to maintain the link to the preset, but not impact the palette that was the source of the preset,
[Update] {Break Nested} can be used.
Using Cue Only/Track
The [Cue Only/Track] key can be used as an applied exception to the cue only/track system
setting. Therefore if the system is set to Cue Only, the key behaves as a [Track] command.
Alternatively, if the system is set to Track, the key behaves as a [Cue Only] button.
For more information on Tracking vs. Cue Only see Tracking vs. Cue Only, page 5 in Setup.
[Cue Only/Track] can be used in conjunction with record or update functions. Following are some
examples of use:
With system set to “Track”
• [Record] <Cue> [5] [Cue Only] [Enter] [Enter] - rerecords cue 5. This will make the changes
to cue 5 only. The changes will not track forward through the list.
• [-] [Color] [Record] <Cue> [5] [Cue Only] [Enter] [Enter] - as above, but changes to color
parameters will not be included in the record and all data that was included will not track
forward. Color data in the cue remains unchanged.
• [Update] <Cue> [5] [Cue Only] [Enter] - updates cue 5 with only those manual parameters
that were receiving their instructions from that cue. The changes will not track forward in the
list. Note that if the data being updated were referenced, this action updates the referenced
target as well.
• [-] [5] [Record] <Cue> [7] [Cue Only] [Enter] [Enter] - rerecords the specified cue, except
the contributions from channel 5. The changes will not track forward in the list.
With system set to “Cue Only”
• [Record] <Cue> [5] [Track] [Enter] [Enter] - rerecords cue 5. This will force the changes to
track forward in the list until the next move instruction or block.
• [-] [5] [Color] [Record] <Cue> [7] [Track] [Enter] [Enter] - rerecords the specified cue,
except the color data from channel 5. The recorded changes will track forward in the list.
• [Update] <Cue> [3] [Thru] [7] [Track] [Enter] - updates cues 3 thru 7. Range updates are
subject to the normal rules of track/cue only in determining impact on subsequent cues.
Note:
In the following examples, the commands [Cue Only] and [Track] indicate the
same key hit of [Cue Only/Track] - a single button on the keypad. The system
setting determines the actual context of the button.
For clarity, only the contextual function of the button is used in the examples.
