MagicQ User Manual 254 Version 1.4.9.0
MagicQ supports show file synchronisation in a network. One console is designated as the “Master Prog”
console which will keep the master show file.
The synchronisation of show data is separate to synchronisation of show playback state and hot takeover.
Regardless of which console is actually controlling the universes the Master Prog console will remain in
control of the master show file.
When a Slave Prog console starts or is reset it makes a connection to the Master Prog console and tries to
synchronise to the show master data. This consists of automatically grabbing the show data file from the
show master and loading that show data file into the show slave. Users can also request a resynchronise at
any time.
28.1.1 Configuration
Configure the master console by setting the multi console setting “Show data sync type” to “Master Prog”.
On each of the slave consoles set the “Show data sync type” option to “Slave Prog” and set the “Show
data sync IP” to the IP address of the master show console.
The status of the slave synchronisation is shown in the status bar. Initially the status window will show
“NoCon”.
Once the show slave has a connection to the show master over the network (but not yet synchronised) it
will show “NoSync”.
