Chapter Ten:
Advanced Moving Light Cue Programming
In this chapter we describe programming techniques for LP-3000 users who are
already familiar with basic Moving Light features and functionality.
Included in this chapter are step-by-step procedures for:
•
Programming multi-part cues in which different fixture types can be
programmed at the same time.
•
Editing Moving Light cues that were created previously.
•
Programming cues in off-line mode.
Multi-Part Cues
If you want to include different types of fixtures in a cue, you will find it more
convenient to program each fixture type separately.
If you select different types of instruments at the same time, the LP-3000 displays
all labels that apply to any attributes of the selected fixture types. For example, if a
PAL1200 and an Intellabeam are selected, Shutter labels will be listed in the beam
attributes, even though they cannot be applied to the Intellabeams. When the cue is
saved, only those labels that are appropriate are applied to each fixture. Others are
saved as “No Change”.
To simplify cue programming, a single cue could be built by first selecting and
programming one instrument or group, saving this part, then selecting and
programming the instrument or group, saving that part, and so forth. The result
would be saved as a single cue.
“Multi-part” programming enables you to program in this fashion and still see all
lights—whether they are selected or not.
To Create a Multi-Part Cue
1. Use the Instruments screen to pick all of the instruments that will be in the
cue.
See Selecting Fixtures beginning on page 86 for complete details on
selecting the instruments for a cue.
2. Click Exit to Programmer.
The LP-3000 displays the Programmer screen.
