Description of Response by the Encore
Go Cue #
0x01
1. Starts execution of a cue, or resumes a paused cue.
2. If no cue is specified, the command executes the cue in the Encore
Next Cue register.
3. If a cue is specified, the current stage cue is entered into the Encore
"link stack" and the specified cue is executed. (For more information
on the link stack, see the Link Stack topic later in this appendix).
Stop 0x02 1. Pauses all running cues.
2. If a cue number is specified, the command is ignored because the
Encore does not support simultaneous paused and running cues.
Resume 0x03 1. Resumes paused cues.
2. If a cue number is specified, the command is ignored because the
Encore does not support simultaneous paused and running cues.
Timed Go 0x04
1. Starts a cue after a specified delay time.
2. Delay times longer than 1000 seconds are reduced to 1000 seconds.
Load 0x05 1. Loads a specified cue into the Encore’s Next Cue register.
2. The cue may then be executed by another MIDI command, or by
pressing the console GO button.
Fire 0x07 1. Triggers a macro or starts a cue. A parameter value of zero executes
an Encore Go command.
2. A value from 1 - 100 executes the corresponding macro.
All Off 0x08 1. Executes the Encore blackout function the same as using the Blackout
switch.
2. Channels designated as Automated channels are not affected by this
command.
3. The "All Off" command is different from the Encore Go To Cue 0
blackout executed by the "Go Off" MSC command. The "All Off"
blackout does not affect the internal channel levels, and can be
restored with the MSC "Restore" command. Toggling the Blackout
switch also restores channel levels.
Restore 0x09 Cancels the "All Off" command.
Reset 0x0a Executes the Encore Go To Cue 0 command (blackout cue).
Go Off 0xb Executes the Encore Go To Cue 0 command (blackout cue).
