236 Eos Family v2.9.0 Operations Manual
updated in cue 5 will now be shown as absolute data.
[5] [Thru] [9] [Update] {Make Absolute} [Enter] - this will break only the references for
channels 5-9 and record their manual values to the cue. Other manual values will not be
included in this update.
You may also use [Record Only] to break references.
Example:
Cue 5 is active and onstage. Channels 5 through 20 are currently referencing preset 1.
You make changes to channels 5 through 9. The data for these changes is now manual.
Press:
[Record Only] [Enter] [Enter]
If there were other changes on stage, you could have used:
[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 through 9 is broken and now the cue will display the absolute data rather
than the reference indicator.
Update Using Cue Only/Track
The [Q 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 [Q Only] button.
For a more detailed summary of Cue Only and Tracking modes, please see
Tracking vs. Cue
Only (on page6)
.
[Q Only/Track] can be used in conjunction with record or update functions. Following are some
examples of use:
Note: In the following examples, the commands [Q Only] and [Track] indicate the
same key hit of [Q 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.
With system set to Track
[Record] <Cue> [5] [Q 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] [Q 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] [Q 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] [Q 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.
