Toolbar
A long, thin window with a series of buttons, that generally sits along the
top or bottom edge of the screens. When in this position, a toolbar is said
to be ‘docked’. -See Also Soft Key.
Touch Screens
The two LCD screens on the console, which display and allow the user to
select information from them.
Touched Value
A parameter value that has been assigned or edited by the user. Values
which are not touched will remain at their default value. -See Also Default
Value, Tracking.
Tracked Value
The output of a master running a cuelist is a mix of hard and tracked para-
meter values. Hard values are those that are in the current cue, while
tracked values are those that have tracked through from previous cues. -
See Also Tracking.
Tracking
A method of dealing with cuelists that does not record information in a cue
unless it is a change from the previous cue. This allows multiple cuelists to
be running at the same time without them interfering with each other. -See
Also Hard Value, Tracked Value, Touched Value, Default Value.
U
UDP
A network protocol or language that computers use to talk to each other
over Ethernet. Hog 4 OS uses this standard protocol, which means that it
can safely be connected to other networks of computers and will not inter-
fere with them. For show-critical situations you should run the Hog system
on its own independent network. -See Also Ethernet.
USB
Universal Serial Bus (USB): a means of connecting computer peripherals
such as keyboards and mice. Hog consoles also use USB to connect
expansion wings. -See Also Playback Wing.
