Cue Parameters
AutoFade Time Parts
Every Cue has four Time Parts, which exist to provide automatic fading
(Auto Fade) of Channel Levels during Cue playback.
The Intensity, Colour, Beam and Position of a Lamp can each be made to
follow a different Time Part. This allows precise control of the order in
which Attributes are set by a Cue.
For example, when a Cue is played back, you may want the Colour and
Beam to be set-up immediately (while the Lamp is off), then start the lamp
fading-up and then, part way through the fade, move the lamp to a new
position.
HTP & LTP Envelopes
Each Time Part contains four parameters that are used for controlling HTP
Channel AutoFades — the HTP Envelope:
Wait
Up
Hold
Down
WAIT
HTP ENVELOPE
HTP
LEVELS
Cue Level

HOLD DOWN

And two parameters used for LTP Channel AutoFades —the LTP
Envelope:

The HTP Envelopes in all four Time Parts are triggered simultaneously
(’HTP go’). Likewise, the LTP Envelopes are also triggered together (’LTP
go’). However, the HTP and LTP triggers can be issued independently.
