PRIORITY RULES FOR PLAYBACK
You may assign multiple effects to one output key in combinations of
scenes, chases and
channels. You may assign one look only to a key. The look will suppress any other existing
key contents. Should you later decide to remove the look, the original contents of the key
will be restored.
During playback later button presses will have priority over earlier ones because of the last
takes precedence rule.
Where multiple effects are assigned to a single key, the Power Cue DMX has its own
system of rules for deciding priorities. Where, for example, there are multiple chases, it will
give priority to the last-selected ones and channels called by multiple chases will respond to
the higher priority ones. Where there is a mix of scenes, zones and chases, the order of
priority is first chases, then zones, then scenes.
You may assign effects to a key already containing a show but these effects will be
suppressed until the show is removed from the key.
