Inactive

A luminaire state (programmed via the [Out] button) in which no recorded data is provided for that luminaire in a
selected cue. When a luminaire is

inactive

(or

out

), it will not store data for any parameter.

Independent

A submaster mode which prohibits the associated submaster’s contents from being altered by any other active
submaster. Releasing the submaster from its independent state makes the associated channels/parameters available
to other control. Those channels will respond to the next available instruction for which it has stored data. The
intensity levels for channels on independent submasters are affected by the setting of the Grand Master fader.

Indexing

Changes orientation of rotating gobo.

Intensity

The amount of light emitted by a source, per second in a given direction within a cone of unit solid angle. Also, the
function of a luminaire related to the brightness of the beam as projected on a surface, specified by intensity data.

Label

An alpha-numeric identifier which can be stored with elements such as cues, effects, groups, macros, templates, and
selects.

Link

A cue attribute which alters the next sequential cue in the Cue Sheet. The automatic activation of the linked cue is
dependent on the presence of a wait or trail time. Links can be made to cues, effects, snapshots and macros.

Live Editing

A console mode wherein all actions taken are actually executed by the luminaires, in real time, on stage.

Also see

Preview Editing.

Load

When a cue or effect is moved to a submaster’s pending file.

Loop

An attribute that can be added to a cue, indicating the number of times a linked sequence of cues is to execute.

Luminaire State

A luminaire can be in one of four different states in a cue. When the luminaire is

active

, it has recorded data for

intensity and all other parameters. When

marked

, it has no intensity data, but does have other parameter data. When

the luminaire is

zero

, it has intensity data at 0% but does not have other parameter data (opposite of

marked

). An

inactive

luminaire (out) has no recorded data for any parameter.

Macro

A series of command strings (button presses or display selections) that can be recorded for automated playback,
either through manual selection of the associated macro number, or from automated activation through the Cue
Sheet.

Manual Assign

A submaster mode which allows a submaster to control the parameters of manually assigned channels, as well as
stored events.

Manual Control Override

Manual Control Override allows a manual intensity level to be established for an inactive channel. That level will
remain in effect until a channel receives a command from an active, marked or out channel. A channel on manual
