Assert
Assert is only used when working with multiple cue lists. See the next chapter,
AllFade
Any cue can have an allfade flag applied. An allfade sends the intensity for all channels not included
in the cue to zero. Submasters, any captured channels and the contribution from any faders that are
set to independent are unaffected, unless the cue executing the allfade is also set to independent.
An allfade flag “*” is identified in the playback status display for the specified cue.

to zero.
The allfade instruction is useful as a quick cleanup, to get back to a known state on stage, without
having to worry about what channels need to be set to zero.
Mark
The Mark flag is used to relay information about either automarks or reference marks. When using
automarks, an “M” will display in the flags field for the specific cue that will execute an automark. A
“D” is displayed when automark has been disabled for a cue.
When using reference marks, an “M” will display in the flags field for any cue that will execute a
referenced mark. An “R” displays when a cue is the source of a mark.
Preheat
Preheat can be used to bring moving lights to a preheat intensity in the cue immediately preceding
an intensity upfade from 0. Preheat values can be assigned to moving lights individually in patch
(see
{Attribute} Display and Settings, page 70
Preheat is assigned on a cue basis and, if assigned, any moving light in that cue with a preheat
intensity assigned in patch, will fade to that intensity in the cue immediately preceding the cue with
the preheat flag. Cues with a preheat flag will display an “O” in the preheat flag column (indicated
by a “P” at the top of the column).
Moving lights that set to a preheat value in the previous cue will display a “Ph” in the intensity field
of that channel.
