This is the command line input. Here we can type commands using the keyboard (on screen or external). When you
press it you'll get the Command Line view. here you can see previous executed commands and other feedback from
the console.
Write this:
g 2 - 9 at 75
And finish with a press on Enter. In the future, you can just finish the examples I write with Enter or a
Now do this:
g 4 - 9 + f 9 t 12 at + 20
Let's have a look at the response from the console and talk about what we just did.
The response to the first command is this:
Executing : Group 2 - 9
So we can see that the "g" is a shortcut for "Group". So we took the fixtures in group 2 except the ones that are
also in group 9 at put them at 75%. The "Executing" part is just the console telling you that it actually did it.
Next line was more complex:
Executing : Group 4 - 9
The first part is like the other one but then we see that "f" is interpreted as "Fixture" and "t" is "Thru". So we took
the fixtures from group 4 except the ones that are also in group 9, then added fixtures 9 to 12 and gave the
selection 20% more than they had.
Let's store this using the commands:
st c 3 fa 5
Here's the response:
Executing : Store Cue 3
So again there are shortcuts to most words. We created cue number 3 with a fade time of 5 seconds.
We can also see that the dot2 is running a macro when you store. This macro removes unnecessary values in your
cue list.
Cue number 4 is a darker cue, so we are going to take 40% of everything that's currently on. Currently we have
group 5 and 8 on..
