Show Control 501
Show Control Display
The Show Control Display allows for the creation of event lists, which are comprised of events. An
Event List defines how incoming show control events are processed by the console – any protocol
that can be received by the console is handled here. Each event list uses a different type of show con-
trol at a time (time code, analog inputs, RTC, or network). Specific information about setting up
events for each show control type can be found later in this guide.
The show control display can be accessed by pressing {Show Control} on the Display Management
Home Screen.
Settings
In addition to the show control display, your console provides additional user-definable settings for
show control which can be accessed by pressing [Displays]>{Setup}>{System}>{Show Control}. For
more information, see the Show Control Settings (on page495).
Events
The upper portion of the show control display shows the specific events that are contained in each
event list. An event consists of an input condition, such as a timestamp, real time, an address, or
input value, and an action. An event plays back (or “fires”) when the input condition is met (for
example, the timecode passes the given timestamp, or a contact closure at the given address
changes). Multiple events can be fired at the same time; however a single action can only be placed
in each event.
Eos Family consoles support three event actions:
Cues can be run.
Submasters can be bumped, faded (via analog only), and turned on and off.
Macros execute without interaction with the command line, unless the macro is set to fore-
ground mode.
Note: If another macro is fired before the first macro completes, the first macro will finish
its action before the second is started.
Note: If a macro is selected as the intended action, it will fire using the macro mode spe-
cified. Please see Macro Editor Display (on page405) for information on macro modes.
