MagicQ User Manual 251 Version 1.4.9.0
Thus consoles can be set to track the playback exactly or just to honour DBO and Swap status. This
means that, for example, when using two consoles, one for generic lights and one intelligent lights –
pressing a Swap button on one console will affect both consoles.
It is possible to synchronise with other (non MagicQ) consoles or external computers that support
ChamSys Remote Ethernet Protocol.
27.5.2 Configuration (MagicQ software v1.3.6.3 and before)
On the master unit set Remote Ethernet Protocol to Chamsys Rem (tx) and on the slave units set Remote
Ethernet Protocol to Chamsys Rem (rx).
For individual playbacks set the Cue Stack option “Send playback state to other consoles”. For all main
playbacks, set the Setup option “Send playback state to other consoles”.
27.5.3 Configuring which consoles Playback sync to which consoles
When there are multiple consoles on a network, it may be that consoles are controlling different ArtNet
universes and therefore there may be more than one master console sending synchronisation information
on the network.
It is possible to set a MagicQ console to only accept synchronisation information from a particular
console. In Multiple Console Settings, “Playback Sync IP” enter the IP address of the console to accept
synchronisation from. A value of 0.0.0.0 indicates that it will accept synchronisation from any console on
the network.
