Playback Status Display
The playback status display (PSD) allows you to view a range of cues in the cue list and all the
cue attributes for those cues.
The PSDopens on Tab 2. This display cannot be closed, but you can have multiple instances of
the PSDopen on different tabs.
Holding down [Time] , while a cue is fading, will display the cue category times counting down
in the cue list display area. The default action is to show the total time not the countdown.
To always show the countdown, a {PSD Time Countdown} option is available in PSD
configuration menu (see
Playback Status Display Configuration (on page52)
). When the {PSD
Time Countdown} is enabled, the cue category times will countdown as a cue is fading. To see
the total time, hold down the [Time] key. {PSD Time Countdown} is “disabled” by default.
An optional command line for the playback status display is available. The optional command
line must be enabled to use. See
Playback Status Display Configuration (on page52)
