Loops and links for cues
Loops define a range of sequential cues, setting them to repeat a specified number of times. Cues
participating in loops fade according to their set fade times.
Links skip the cues in between the linked cues. Example: Cue 5 is linked to cue 8. When cue 5 is
the current cue, a go command initiates a fade to cue 8. The playback skips cues 6 and 7.
Programming loops
The number of loops determines how many times the sequence of cues or chase steps repeat. When
the loop setting is 0 (zero) the loop repeats an infinite number of times. Use the wheels to set the
number of loops:
Wheel 1 - x1 (units of 1)
Wheel 2 - x10 (units of 10)
Wheel 3 - x100 (units of 100)
To set the number of loops
Example: Set a range of sequential cues repeat (loop) 12 times.
1 Press
QLIST, select the QList, and select the range of cues included in the loop: CUE #
