Cue Stack Link Mode

The Cue Plus section of the console always operates in one of two
"link" modes: Sequential, for stepping through cues using the GO
button or CROSSFADE slider, or Scripted, where the console
automatically moves from cue to cue on its own, with preprogrammed
delay times. Additionally, the link mode can be turned off, disabling
the Cue Plus section.

By selecting "Mode" in the Cue Stack menu, then pressing the right
SCROLL button, the Link Mode page is displayed. Operation of the cue
stack is simplest in Sequential mode, where cues are linked in a
sequential order. In this mode, the first cue brings up Scene 1,
pressing GO or crossfading manually then brings up Scene 2, and so on.
Additionally, the color changer cues proceed sequentially as well,
independently of the scene changes; color changes are initiated by
pressing the gray Color Scene ADVANCE button. At any point, it is
possible to type in a new scene or color number, but subsequent cues
will always proceed sequentially from that new number.

Selecting Scripted for the Link Mode allows for more flexible
operation, in that a script list is devised to perform scene and color
cues, as well as chases, in any random order. See page [27] for
instructions on programming a cue script.

If the Link Mode is set to "(off)," the Cue Stack and Color Scene
sections of the panel will have no effect.

Cue Stack Control

From the Cue Stack menu, selecting "Control" then pressing the right
SCROLL button displays the Cue Stack Control page. The configuration
of this display screen will vary depending upon the setting of the
Link Mode.

When the Link Mode is off, there is no Control page. (If Control is
selected with the Link Mode off, then a diagnostics page is displayed.
This is a special display used in the repair and testing of the
console.)

Cue Stack Control: Sequential Mode

When the Link Mode is set to Sequential, the Control page designates
this by showing "SEQ" in the upper left corner. Three columns of
numbers are listed: the scene number (0 through 999), the crossfade
time (0:00 through 9:59, in minutes and seconds), and the color number
(0 through 999). These are listed in two rows, one for "now," or the
current scene, and one for "next," or the upcoming scene. Only the
values for the "next" scene are editable; you cannot, of course,
