Description

With the Call command, you can call:

• Presets from the preset pool into the programmer for all supporting fixtures of these attributes
• The status of a cue as actual output and the values of the cue into the programmer as storable values, but without selecting the fixtures

Syntax

1. Call a preset from the preset pool into the programmer.

Call Preset 1.1

2. Call a cue.

Call Cue 3

Example 1

Let´s assume you will call the dimmer preset 1 from the dimmer preset pool (= 1) into the programmer.

Press and hold + On (=Call) and Preset 1 . 1 Please.

The dimmer preset 1 is in the programmer for all supporting fixtures of these preset type.

Hint:
Double check the programmer values in the Fixtures Sheet View.

Example 2

Let´s assume, you will store a cue 4 (= green background and actor on stage).
The light for actor on stage is currently in the programmer along with the selected fixtures.
Now, you call cue 3 (= green background) to the current selection of fixtures and values into the programmer.

Figure 1: Light for actor on stage in the programmer

Press and hold + On (=Call) and Cue 3 Please.

Figure 2: Light for actor on stage and cue 3 values are in the programmer

The cue 3 is called and you see the actual output along with your previous selections of fixtures and their values.
All values of cue 3 are in the programmer and they are storable.
No fixture from cue 3 is selected.
You can still adjust the values of the fixture selection.
If everything looks nice, store cue 4 (=green background with actor on stage) on an executor.
