ETC Eos Family Show Control - Manual (Page 11)

Show Control Display 9
Show Control Display
The show control display allows for the creation of event lists, which are comprised of events. Each
event list uses a different type of show control (time code, analog inputs or RTC) and each event
contains the information for when and what is being triggered.
The show control display can be accessed by pressing [Displays]>>{Show Control}
or [Browser]>{Show Control}.
Settings
In addition to the show control display, your console provides additional user-definable settings for
show control which can be accessed by pressing [Displays]>{Setup}>{Show}>{Show Control}
or [Browser]>{Setup}>{Show}>{Show Control}. For more information, see the Show Control
Setup, page 5 .
Events
The upper portion of the show control display contains the specific events that are contained in each
event list. An event consists of a time or address, and an action. An event plays back (or “fires”)
when the clock reaches or passes the specified event time, or an input is seen on an address.
Multiple events can be fired at the same time; however a single action can only be placed in each
event.
Eos Family consoles support three event actions:
• Cues can be run.
• Submasters can be bumped, faded (via analog only), and turned on and off.
• Macros execute without interaction with the command line, unless the macro is set to
foreground mode.
N o t e : If another macro is fired before the first macro completes, the first macro will finish
its action before the second is started.
N o t e : If a macro is selected as the intended action, it will fire using the macro mode
specified. Please see the Storing and Using Macros chapter of your console’s
manual for information on macro modes.
