2.2 Programming a Cue
1. Make sure the Grand Master is positioned at 100%.
2. Select the desired fixtures (e.g. the first 3) by pushing the related keys onto the touch panel.
A bar inside the fixture key will shows the selection. When the bar is red coloured, then the
fixture is selected.
3. Push the Locate key to bring the selected fixtures to the Home position. The Locate action
allows finding the fixtures on stage since this command forces the Shutters and Dimmer
channels to full open and maximum intensity. In addition, Homing the fixtures will bring Pan
and Tilt channels to 50% of their range of movement.
Locate is also assigning a specific DMX value to each single fixture’s Attribute.
IMPORTANT!!
Is extremely important to begin the programming procedure by using the Loca e
command since this will allocate a specific DMX value to all the fixture's Attributes.
These values will then be stored into a Cue.
4. Attributes can be changed through the use of the 4 Encoder Wheels. The Att ibutes assignment
to the wheels can be selected by pushing the following keys: Intensity, Pan-Ti t, Color,
Gobo, Prism, Blade.
If more than 4 fixtures channels belong to a set of Attributes (e.g.: Cy n-Magenta-Yellow-CTC-
ColorW1-ColorW2) press the related key repeatedly (the key Color n th example), to choose
the Attributes to be controlled by the 4 Encoder Wheels.
In the case of motorized fixtures, the Pan and Tilt channels are al ays enabled on the Jog-Ball,
for the selected fixtures.
5. To save the settings for the Attributes and create a Cue pu h the Store key followed by the Cue
key which will appear on the pop-up window on the to ch anel.
2.3 Creating a Cue-list
Each Pilot 3000 Register can control a maximum numb r of 999 Cues. That means a Register is
handling the Cue-list.
The Store Cue command saves the status of he A tributes into a Cue.
Then, is it possible to decide which of the 20 av ilable Registers will be used to save the Cue or
creating a Cue-list by using the Select k y. P essing the Select key will allow the Pilot 3000 to
display the current Register selection by a reen led LIT corresponding to the Register key active.
Storing several Cues into the selected e ister, will automatically create a Cue-list.
To create a Cue-list upon stored the first Cue, proceed as follows:
1. Modify the existing Attri ute pa ameters to create a new Cue. Choosing a group from the
whole fixtures listed will al ow changing the Attributes only for those selected fixtures whilst
keeping the Attributes nformation previously saved for the other fixtures not selected.
2. Save the new Attribu es status by using the Store and Cue command.
3. Repeating the bov operations sequentially will save all the Cues, which are entered and
automatically numbered in sequence in the same Cue-list.
If other Cue lists are to be created in different Playback registers, a new register must be selected
b
efore sa ing the first Cue in the new Cue-list. To select a new Cue destination register:
1. Push the Select key
2. Pu h the target Playback key (1 – 20).
Is it possible to create up to 20 Register's Pages, each of which is able to handle at least 1 Cue-list
to maximum of 20.
To select a new Page before saving a Cue or a Cue-list, proceed as follows:
Push the Page key
Then, push the Playback key which is related to the target page to be selected.
Therefore is possible to scroll across the pages and change the current Page by a repeated push of
the Page key. The pages change will be displayed by the Playback key's green led lit ON.
