#3. Cues

Cues are used to save lighting looks. To record a cue, change fixture colors to the desired color (cues DO NOT save intensity!!!) then on the keypad to the left of the small screen, hit “RECORD” then “CUE” then hit the desired number for the cue. If this cue already exists, its information will appear on the small screen. After you have chosen a cue number, you can enter information about how the cue will be processed. “FADE UP” and “FADE DOWN” are pretty self-explanatory, they control the fade up and down timing by seconds (”SNAP” is instant). “NAME” is also self-explanatory, as it is the name that appears on the cue page. “COLOR” changes how the cue fades into its colors. “SNAP@100%” is not useful, “SNAP” causes the fixtures to immediately snap to the correct color, and “FADE” causes the colors to fade into each other. It is recommended to use “FADE”. “BEAM SHAPE” might control lighting similar to “FADE UP” and “FADE DOWN”.
