Page 14: Important Concepts
The following resources are recommended: John Huntington, Show Networks and Control Systems, (Brooklyn, NY:Zircon Designs Press, 2012) The ETC Support Articles: http://www.etcconnect.com/Support/ Important Concepts Before using your console, you should read and familiarize yourself with the concepts defined below.
Page 15 Each of these attributes is addressed by a dif- ferent output. Eos treats fixtures and channels as one and the same. Unlike former ETC consoles where a fixture occupied one channel for each parameter, Eos assigns each fixture a single channel number. Indi- vidual parameters are then associated with that channel as additional lines of channel information.
Page 16 key. There are some commands which are self-terminating, and therefore do not require [Enter] to be pressed. Some (but not all) of these commands are: Level Actions from the direct selects Parameters and Parameter Categories Eos divides fixture parameters into four major parameter categories: Intensity, Focus, Color, and Beam.
Page 17 Eos also has a [Cue Only/Track] button that allows you to record or update a cue as an exception to the default setting. Therefore, if the console is set to Tracking, the button acts as Cue Only. If con- sole is set to Cue Only, it behaves as a Track button. Tracking Mode When you create a new cue, any unchanged channel parameter data from the previous cue is tracked into the new specified cue.
Page 18 as follows: channel 1's new level is recorded into cue 2, channel 2's level is recorded into cue 1, and channel 3's level is recorded into cue 3. This is because the move instruction for those channels are contained in those cues. In the case of channels 1 and 2, their new level will track into cue 3.Using [Record] <Cue>...
Page 19 Block vs. Assert In previous ETC consoles, placing a block instruction on a channel was a way to treat a tracked value as a move instruction, both in editing and playback. In Eos, this behavior is now split up. Blocked channel data is an editing convention only, and it prohibits tracked instructions from modifying the associated data.
Page 20 Submasters can operate as HTP or LTP for intensity. The default is HTP. Eos’s default cue list setting for intensity is LTP. HTP is only applicable to the intensity of a channel. HTP channels will output the level that is the highest of all inputs.

Page 62 Live and Blind Configuration Menu (on page 65) Indicators in the Live/ Blind Display Eos relies on many traditional ETC indicators which you may be familiar with, as well as some new ones. This section identifies the graphical and colorful conventions used in Eos to indicate conditions to you.
Page 63 Note: The color and text conventions apply regardless of the format of Live/ Blind being used (see Using [Format] (on page 56)). Note: When manual channels are used, there will be an advisory that says "Manual Chan- nels" in red in the upper left hand corner of any Live display. Most of the channels in the above image are conventional channels (intensity is the only available parameter).
Page 64 Moving Lights or Multi-parameter Devices This view also has additional data fields beneath intensity (F, C, B). This information can be sup- pressed by pressing [Params] and any parameter category (Focus, Color, or Beam) in the CIA. Doing so will leave only the intensity field and FCB indicators at the bottom of the channel. Multicell Devices Parameter data can also be suppressed in the same way as moving lights.
Page 65 You can use flexichannel modes to hide cells or master channels. See Using Flexichannel (on page 66) for more information. Note: A decimal will display at the end of a master channel when flexi cells off is on. Color Indicators Eos uses color to indicate the selection state and information about channel/parameter levels.

Page 116: About Patch
About Patch Eos treats fixtures and channels as one and the same, meaning each fixture is assigned a single con- trol channel number. Individual parameters of that fixture, such as intensity, focus, color, and beam are also associated with that same channel number but as additional lines of channel information. The Patch is used to associate a channel with addresses and device types.
Page 117: Patch Main Displays
Note: You can open or merge patch data from other show files, see Partial Patch Opening (on page 102) Partial Patch Merging (on page 105) for more information. A 1-to-1 patch can be created from the Clear display. See Clearing the Patch (on page 142) Patch Main Displays To begin patching your show, you must first open the patch display.
Page 118: Patching Conventional Fixtures
Status in the Patch Display Status flags will display on the far left of the patch display to advise you when a channel or address requires your attention. A red “!” or yellow “?” will display when there is an error or warning from an RDM, CEM+, CEM3, or ACN device.
Page 119 Additional examples of patch by channel: [5] [At] [1][0][0] [Enter] - patches channel 5 to address 100. [2][0][3] [At] [1][2] [Enter] - patches channel 203 to address 12. Range Patching Range patching using the [Thru] key allows you to quickly patch a group of channels. [1][Thru][2][0] [At] [1] [0] [Enter] patches channels 1 through 20 to addresses 10 through 29.
Page 120 Port/ offset refers to the DMX universe or port and the offset of the address. For example, since a single DMX port can transmit 512 addresses (known as a “universe”), the port/ offset for address 515 would look like 2/3 because address 515 is the 3rd address of universe 2. An example of patching by port/ offset in patch by address mode is [2][/][1][0] [At] [2][0] [Enter], which patches universe 2 address 10, or 522, to channel 20.
Page 121 [1] [Thru] [9] [6] [At] [1] [Enter] Now you wish to dimmer double 1 through 12 of your Sensor+ rack and you want these to be channels 97 through 108.

Warning messages can include: Multiple devices’ addresses overlap Multiple devices or different devices at this address Patched fixture type mismatch Patched fixture address mismatch...
Page 145: Update Library
When a new library is installed on Eos either from a software update or a separate fixture library file from the ETC website, changes in library data will not automatically update your show files. This is to prevent library changes from affecting a functional show file.
Page 146 Creating a New Fixture New fixtures are created from the fixture editor in the CIA . You can either create a new fixture, or copy an existing fixture to edit. See Copying a Fixture (on page 148) To create a new fixture, press {New}. A new fixture will be added to the fixture list. Naming a New Fixture Once the new fixture appears in the list, it is recommended that you name the fixture you are about to create.
Page 147 Note: When {New} is pressed, the parameter slot will appear in the list with a default name in the “Parameter” column. You may disregard these default parameters as you will redefine the designations in a later step. 5. Use the [Page] keys, mouse, or touchscreen to navigate to any parameter slots that you wish to alter the default parameter designations for.

Page 158 {MSC Tx Device ID} Also known as “Device ID” this setting allows you to set the device ID with which your console will transmit MIDI Show Control information. A device ID can be from 0-127. If set to 127, the console will transmit MSC data to all devices (All Call).
Page 159 This setting specifies the UDP port that the console will listen to for OSC receiving strings. Note: ETC recommends using 8000 and 8001 respectively for port numbers. Remember that when setting port numbers on your external device that they should be set to the opposite of what Eos is set.
Page 160 Note: Be careful when using a network with a DHCP server. If your external device reboots or is issued a new IP address from a DHCP server, it will no longer receive OSC strings from Eos until you change this setting to match your new IP address at your external device. String UDP {String RX} This setting will enable receiving strings on all Serial RX formats and OSC inputs.

Page 178 Beam has three subcategories which correspond to the way the encoders are mapped. They are {Form}, {Image}, and {Shutter}. These subcategories are represented with buttons in the CIA. Pressing these buttons allows you to select all parameters within those subcategories. Within the CIA, in the upper left corner, notice the {All NPs} button.
Page 179 Form- includes parameters that affect the quality or size of the light output, such as edge, zoom, iris, IMF, frost, etc. Image - includes anything that drops into the gate, such as gobos, effects wheels, etc. Shutter - includes all of the framing devices for the luminaire.
Page 180 For Eos and Eos Ti, they are displayed in blue at the top of the LCD display. For Gio, Gio @ 5, and Ion Xe, they are displayed at the bottom of the parameter category softkeys. You can go directly to the page required by pressing the encoder page button and a page number.
Page 181 When you have created a new scroll or wheel in patch for any channel and that channel is selected, that information will be displayed in the associated encoder display. See Using the Editor (on page 126) When you access a parameter page, the encoders will automatically load and display the first page that has a valid parameter for the selected channels.
Page 182 Form (a subcategory of Beam) collects the parameters that affect the quality of the beam, including the iris, edge, frost, etc. ‘Shutter’ and ‘Image’ are the other two subcategories of Beam When the form encoder page button is selected, the LED will illuminate and the encoders auto- matically populate with the “Form”...
Page 183 The shutter controls window allows you to move individual shutters by holding down one of the let- ters inside of the shutter graphic. To rotate the shutters, use the <A>, <B>, <C>, or <D> buttons around the outside of the shutter graphic. Encoder Buttons Note: The encoder buttons are used with the encoders for shutter control.
Page 184 Color scroller data will display on the encoders and displays as frame numbers, F1, which would be frame 1, F2 for frame 2, etc. F1.5 is halfway between 1 and 2. F2+ will dis- play if the frame is less than 2.5 and F2- if the frame is greater than 1.5. After the frame num- ber, the gel number will also be displayed.
Page 185 Color Spaces There are six color spaces that you can choose to work in. All of these spaces are connected. So it doesn't matter which space you wish to work in, the console will translate the information to work with your fixtures. When the color picker is first opened, the CIE xy color space and the gel picker will open by default.
Page 186 Note: When a fixture is in HS mode, the brightness control is not provided. Intensity con- trols the brightness. For the CIE xy (CIE 1931) and CIE uv (CIE 1976), the triangle represents the RGB space as defined by the PLASA standard E1.54. Fixtures that comply to that standard can achieve any color within the tri- angle.
Page 187 {Brightest} - determines the color match used. This is helpful when working with fixtures that have more than three color components, such as RGBA, RGBWm or ETC's fixtures. Pressing {Brightest} or {Shift} +a gel from the picker will cycle through the three modes.
Page 188 How the Gel Picker Affects Scroller and Color Wheel When possible the Gel Picker will select the closest gel as defined in a scroller or color wheel. Note: Some devices contain manufacturer specified gel mixes, and will only allow selection from the Gel Picker of the exact gels in their list.
Page 189 Color Path Note: Color path is only applicable for additive mixing systems. Color Path is a option for controlling color fades between cues. By default, color fades happen in the native space of the fixture. If you want a fade that resembles a fade in a different color space, you can do that using color paths.
Page 190 - plays / resumes the color fade. - skips to the end of the color fade. You can also click on the color path preview bar to scrub to any point along the fade. Additional controls may be available based on the color path selected. For example, Color Path 7 has additional controls for Hue, Saturation, and Brightness.

Page 193 information. Multicell fixtures have a master channel with a whole number for a channel number and the appro- priate number of additional cells, which will have point numbers for their channel numbers. To control the whole fixture, select the master channel. To control individual cells, use [.] to put cell only on the command line.
Page 194: Lamp Controls
You can also have a cell selected and still apply data to the master channel as long as the cell does not also have that parameter. When you have selected a cell, if you apply data that does not apply to the master, Eos understands to apply it to the cells instead.
Page 195: Using [+%] And [-%]
Pressing any of these parameter controls buttons will affect the selected channel after a con- firmation. Exit the lamp controls display by pressing [Displays]. Using [+%] and [-%] Use [+%] and [-%] keys to incrementally change parameter values. By default, the [+%] and [-%] keys are assigned a value of 10. This can be changed in Setup. See Manual Control (on page 161) for more information.
Page 196: Remainder Dim
Remainder Dim Note: By default, [Rem Dim] will set to zero. In Setup, you can assign a remainder dim value of something other than zero. See Manual Control (on page 161). For the purposes of this discussion, the default value of zero will be used in examples. [Rem Dim] temporarily provides a zero intensity to all channels except those that are currently selec- ted, those that are parked, or those with intensity contributions from submasters.

The playback status display will show a red counter for sneak time. If multiple sneak times are being used, the most recently fired sneak time will be displayed. For an example of the sneak counter, see Indicators in the Playback Status Display (on page 72).
Page 201 The [Select Last] key allows you to reselect whatever the previous channel selection was. This includes multiple channel selections, groups, etc. Using [Select Last] , Eos will recall your last com- mand line and leave it unterminated for further operation. This will work for a loop of the last five commands.
Page 202: Channel Check
For example, cue 1 is active, and has channels 1 through 5 at full. Using the syntax, [Select Active] [Enter] [At] will post channels 1 through 5 onto the command line. Another example, Channels 10 through 20 have a manual level of 75. Using [Select Manual] [Enter] [Select Last] will put channels 10 through 20 onto the command line.
Page 203: Address Check
Note: This feature is useful when you want to perform an address or dimmer check. Address Check Address check allows you to quickly step through all of your patched addresses. Address check differs from Address at Level (on the previous page) because it skips non-intensity parameters of patched addresses.

Page 206: About Groups
About Groups Groups are channel selection devices used for fast recall of specific channels. A maximum of 1000 groups can be recorded. Once recorded, they are accessible from the keypad, direct selects, and through the displays. Recording Groups Live Record groups of channels that you want to have available for fast recall later. Groups can be stored as whole numbers (such as Group 5) or as decimals of tenths, hundredths, or thousandths (such as Group 2.5, Group 7.65, Group 3.131).
Page 207 If new channels are added to an ordered group using an update command, those channels are added to the end of the channel list from an ordering perspective. When a group is previewed using the Group List, the display defaults to showing the ordered view. Channels can be reordered as needed from this list.
Page 208 [Group] [2] [Enter] [Shift] & [/] [1] [Thru] [4] [Shift] & [/] [Enter] Offset You can use the {Offset} softkey to aid in channel selection prior to storing groups, submasters, pre- sets, palettes, effects, and using park. When {Offset} is pressed, a channel distribution display will open.
Page 209 {InterLeave} creates a number of distributed sets of channels, that are not clustered together. [1] [Thru] [1][2]{Chan Per Group} [4] {InterLeave} [Enter] would create these 4 sub- groups: (1,4,7,10) (2,5,8,11) (3,6,9,12). [1] [Thru] [5] [+] [1][1] [Thru] [1][5] [+] [2][1] [Thru] [2][5] {Chan Per Group} [3] {Inter- Leave} [Enter] would create these 5 subgroups: (1,11,21) (2,12,22) (3,13,23) (4,14,24) (5,15,25).

About Fan Fan provides the ability to spread parameter and timing values in a range across a channel selection set and have those values be evenly spaced. Fan is applied by channel selection or group order. By default, fan operation is from the start channel. When [Fan] is pressed after a channel selection, the softkeys will repaint to the following fan styles: {Center} - The middle channel in the order is set as the start and will remain unchanged, and the first and last channels will change in different directions.

Page 218: About Mark
About Mark Mark is an instruction that automates the process of presetting moving lights to their required state in a cue, prior to fading intensity up. This allows your moving lights to unobtrusively perform non- intensity parameter transitions in an inactive (darkened) state. Eos provides two different methods to mark lights: AutoMark (below) Referenced Marks (on the facing page)
Page 219: Referenced Marks
When enabled, the cue that executes the mark will have an “M” in the flags field. If AutoMark is dis- abled, allowing a live move, a “D” is displayed in the flags field of the cue or cue part where the data is stored.
Page 220 This sets a flag (M) on a cue for later marking activity. In subsequent cues, when channels are marked, they will preset for movement in this cue (unless told to mark elsewhere). When you are building a cue containing channels that you want to mark, do the following: [select channels] [Mark] [Enter] Store the cue, following normal procedures.
Page 221 Priority marked cues display indiciators in the PSD. See Mark Symbols (on the next page) for more information. Applying Flags as Channels are Marked You may also apply a mark flag to a previous cue by doing the following: [select channels] [Mark] [Cue] [5] [Enter] [Record] [Cue] [8] [Enter] This would mark cue 5 to perform any non-intensity moves stored in cue 8.
Page 222 Note: {Emergency Mark} can be used to automatically set a mark flag if you had not pre- viously done so. If using {Earliest M} and no cue with a mark flag has already been set, {Emer- gency Mark} will set a mark flag. See Record Defaults (on page 159) for more information.
Page 223 [Cue] [5] [Mark] [Enter] Later, channels 1-10 are assigned discrete timing and a mark instruction: [1] [Thru] [1] [0] {Focus} [Time] [8] [Mark] [Enter] Then, those channels are recorded into Cue 10: [Record] <Cue> [1] [0] [Enter] In this instance, when Cue 5 is executed, channels 1-10 will perform their focus parameter moves in 8 seconds, as specified in Cue 10 (the source cue, which is the source of their move instruction).
Page 224 [Cue] [n] [Mark] [Enter] To remove a mark from a channel: [select channel] [Mark] [Enter] Note: If a mark is removed from a channel in live, the corresponding cue must be updated. It is also possible to mark to a cue that doesn't exist, and when the mark is stored, Eos will auto- matically create the cue to mark to.

Page 226: About Palettes
About Palettes Palettes are building blocks that can be used to create presets (About Presets (on page 238)), cues (About Single Cue List (on page 252)), and effects (About Effects (on page 332)). Palettes are referenced data. This means that when included in presets, cues, or effects, changes to the contents of the palette are propagated into all of the places the palette is stored.
Page 227: Palette Options
Color Palettes Color palettes can be created for all channels that have any color parameter data. Color palettes store any combination of color data, including CMY, RGB, and HS settings, color scrollers and color wheels. You will find that [Record Only], filter settings and selective store commands will be very useful when storing color palettes.
Page 228 When [Record] is used, Eos will store the relevant parameter category data (intensity, focus, color or beam) for all channels that are not currently at their default value. [Record Only] is a type of selective store that can be used to store only the relevant parameters that have manual data.
Page 229 The following examples illustrate various methods of selectively storing palettes using [Record]: [1] [Thru] [3] [Record] [Intensity Palette] [2] [Label] <name> [Enter] - records the intensity data for selected channels 1 through 3 and adds a label to intensity palette 2. [Group] [2] [Record] {Beam Palette} [Next] [Enter] - records the beam parameter data for Group 2 to the next sequential beam palette number.
Page 230: Recalling Palettes
Storing Palettes to Direct Selects You can store palettes efficiently using the direct selects. Rather than using the [...Palette] hard key and the numeric keypad to specify a palette number, you can simply touch the desired direct select for that palette from the touchscreen. For Example: If you want to store color data to color palette 4, press: [Record]...
Page 231 Note: If enabled in Setup, you can double click on a palette direct select button to quickly recall from the selected palette and put its content on stage. See Displays (on page 165) additional information. Recalled palettes will appear as manual data for the specified channels. That data will appear as abbre- viations of the palette type (IP3 = Intensity Palette 3, FP8 = Focus Palette 8, and so on), or as the palette label if defined/enabled in the displays settings in Setup (see Show Reference Labels (on...
Page 232: Editing Palettes Live
Palettes On Faders Palettes can be mapped to faders. See Presets and Palettes Fader Properties (on page 246) for more information. Presets and palettes can be used to create a temporary list of content that can be played back on a fader.
Page 233 [Palette] [Palette] {Edit} - opens the list view of the palette type and then opens Blind palette. You can also use the tab number to open the list view. See Editing Palettes in List View (on the next page) for a list of tab numbers. CAUTION: When editing palettes in Blind, changes to palettes are automatic, therefore no update or record command is required.
Page 234 When editing in Blind, it is possible to remove an instruction from any palette by selecting the chan- nel and parameter and pressing [At] [Enter] or {Make Null} [Enter]. [Recall From], [Copy To], Move To (accessed by pressing [Copy To] [Copy To]), and {Replace With} may be used to create and edit palette data.

Page 240: About Presets
About Presets Presets are very similar to palettes in that they are collections of data for specific channels to facil- itate cue creation. Presets, however, can collect all data for a given channel (intensity, focus, color, beam) rather than just one parameter category. Eos supports up to 1,000 presets, which can be recorded as decimal (up to three places, 0.001) or whole number (up to 9,999.999).
Page 241 low, delay, or cue overrides). When recorded or re-recorded, presets are automatically recalled on stage. Presets may be individually labeled. Storing Presets Using [Record] The [Record] key will store all parameter data for channels that are not at their home values, as mod- ified by the filter settings in the CIA.
Page 242: Recalling Presets
[Channel list] [Record Only] [Preset] [6] [Enter] - stores the preset, but only the manual data for the channel list supplied. [Channel list] {Color} [Record Only] [Preset] [7] [Enter] - stores only manual color data for the specified channels to the preset. Recalling Presets Channels must be selected when recalling a preset.
Page 243: Effects In Presets
Effects In Presets Effects can be stored in a preset, and those presets can be used to create submasters and cues. However, the effect's data is only copied to the submaster or cue, it is no longer referenced through the preset. Note: If used with submasters and cues, the data is not referenced.
Page 244: Using The Preset List
[Update] {Preset 1} When updating a preset, only channels that are already in the preset will be updated. You need to select channels or parameters to force new data into a preset when using [Update]. Using the Preset List The preset list displays all recorded presets. The Preset List only allows you to change attributes; no editing can be done directly in list view.
Page 245: Editing Presets In Blind
<Preset> [1] [Thru] [5] {Move To} [6] [Enter] [Enter] - moves presets 1 through 5 to presets 6 through 10. You can also move data from a palette to a preset and vice versa. It is important to remember that when using the {Move To} command that data is removed from its current location and moved to its new location.
Page 246: Using By Type Presets
[select channels or parameters] {Make Null} - removes the data for the specified channel or parameter from the preset. [select channels or parameters] [At] [Enter] - removes the data for the specified channel or parameter from the preset. [Preset] [5] {Move To} [Preset] [9] [Enter] - this will move the contents of preset 5 to preset 9. Preset 9 will be created and preset 5 will be deleted.

Page 249 Mode You may define your fader as additive (contributes to the live output), inhibitive (limits live output) or an effect fader (presets only). Master A fader can be assigned as a Master. When it is a master, its behavior as a Proportional Master or Intensity Master (I-Master) is drawn from this setting.
Page 250 Background Priority Background can have a priority assigned to it. In previous software releases, when content was released, it always returned to the last fader that owned it. Background priority releases to the highest priority content that previously had ownership, provided that content has not be turned off or released.
Page 251 Exclude From Record - output is not recorded into any other record target. Exclude From Grandmaster - content cannot be mastered by a grandmaster. Exclude From Inhibitive Sub - content cannot be mastered by an inhibitive submaster Exclude From Solo - content will ignore solo. See Fader and Button Configuration (on page 285) for more information on solo.
Page 252 Solo - suppresses any intensity values not provided by the associated content while the solo button is held down. When the button is released, intensity values are restored. Priority and HTP are ignored. Shielded, park and pixel mapping outputs are not affected by the solo but- ton.

Page 254: About Single Cue List
About Single Cue List A cue is a record target comprised of channels with associated parameter data, discrete (chan- nel/parameter level) timing, cue timing, and cue attributes (such as preheat, follow or hang instruc- tions). When cues are created, they are stored in a cue list. By default, recording cues will result in a single cue list, identified as cue list 1.
Page 255 Channels that have all home values, meaning they have never been changed, are not included in the record action, unless you specifically select the channel and press {Make Manual}. See Using {Make Manual} (on page 303) for more information. Possible exclusions are parameters categories or individual channel parameters withheld by use of fil- ters (see About Filters (on page 288) ).
Page 256: Using [Cue Only / Track]
Using Record Only in Live [Record Only] is similar to [Record] except that it selectively stores only manually set values, pre- venting unwanted levels (such as from a submaster or another cue list), from being recorded into the cue. Therefore, when used to record a cue, only the manual data for channels will be stored in the cue.
Page 257: Selective Storing Cues In Live
With system set to Track [Record] <Cue> [5] [Q Only] [Enter] - records cue 5. New values or changes will not track into the subsequent cue. [-] [Color] [Record] <Cue> [5] [Q Only] [Enter] - as above the recorded data will not track for- ward and all color data is excluded from the record operation.
Page 258: Timing
Using a Positive Selective Store You may record only specified parameters into cues. If the cue has already been stored, this action adds the specified channel parameters to the existing cue data. To record only specific channels into a new target cue: [1] [Thru] [5] [Record] <Cue>...
Page 259 For Example: You want the time for cue 1 to be 10 minutes and 15 seconds. [Cue] [1] [Time] [1][0][1][5] [Enter] The command line will show the time as: If you want the time for cue 1 to be in seconds and tenths of a second, like 1.3 seconds, you will type using a decimal.
Page 260 [Record] <Cue> [4] {Color} [Time] {Manual} [Enter] - applies a manual time to any color data changes in cue 4. Non-intensity Parameter Category Timing Timing can be also applied for Focus, Color and Beam parameter categories at a cue level. By default, FCB timing is the same as intensity upfade time.
Page 261: Assigning Cue Attributes
Note: Any conditions placed on channel /parameter in live (such as discrete timing, asserts, blocks, etc) must be stored or updated to the cue. Discrete Time as a Percentage Discrete times can be entered as a percentage of the cue time.
Page 262 When [Cue] is pressed, the {Attributes} softkey will display. Press {Attributes} to access the following softkeys: {Rate} {Note} {Scene} {Curve} {Preheat} {AF/MF} (Allfade/ Move Fade) {Scene End} Note: Preheat and Allfade are flags. Please see Preheat (on page 267) AllFade (on page 266) for more information.
Page 263 Link/ Loop Link allows cues to be run out-of-sequence, by causing a different cue number to be loaded into the pending file of the playback fader when the cue that carries the link instruction is activated. If a fol- low or hang time is included with the cue attributes, the activation of the linked cue will occur when the follow or hang time has elapsed.
Page 264 [Record] <Cue> [2] [Delay] [5] [Enter] - stores cue 2 with a 5 second delay on intensity. [Record] <Cue> [2] [Time] [9] [Delay] [3] [Enter] - records cue 2 with a 9 second fade for all parameter categories, delayed from Go by 3 seconds. [Record] <Cue>...
Page 265 [Record] <Cue> [8] [Label] [Block] [Enter] - records cue 7 and applies the name of the hardkey as the label Pressing [Label], when a label has already been applied to a cue, will display the label on the com- mand line for editing. Pressing [Label] a second time will clear the label, or you can press [Clear] to remove the label one character at a time.
Page 266 Creating a Scene Break You can add a scene break by using the {Scene} softkey. For example, [Cue] <1 > {Attribute} {Scene} will add a scene to cue 1. The virtual alphanumeric keyboard will open. You will need to label the scene before it is created. Copy To and Move To for Labels, Scenes, and Notes (on page 299) for more information.
Page 267: Flags
[Cue] [n] {Link/Loop} [Enter] - removes the link instruction from the specified cue “n”. [Cue] [n] [Thru] [y] {Attributes} {Rate} [Enter] - removes the rate instruction in cues “n” through “y”. You may combine these to remove multiple attributes at once: [Cue] [n] [Shift] &...
Page 268 Auto-block Eos also supports an auto-block function. Auto-block can protect your cue data from unwanted changes. For example, in cue 5 you set channel 1 to 50%. It is stored as a move instruction. Then, you later go back to an earlier cue and set channel 1 to 50% and it tracks forward to cue 5. Channel 1 will be auto-blocked in cue 5.
Page 269: Using External Links
Note: Only AutoMark is available on Element 2. Preheat Preheat can be used to warm filaments in the cue immediately preceding an intensity upfade from 0. Preheat values can be assigned to channels individually in patch (see {Attribute} Display and Settings page 133)).
Page 270: Modifying Cues Live
there is not a cue 1 in that list, no action is taken. If there are cue numbers on secondary cue lists that are not in cue list 1, those cues are skipped and the subsequent cue taken as an “out-of-sequence” cue when triggered.
Page 271 Using [At] [Enter] A useful feature when editing cues is [At] [Enter]. This is a simple feature which allows you to select any channel or parameter, or several of them, and remove their move instructions, allowing the value from the previous cue to be manually recalled. [At] [Enter] is essentially a “recall from the previous cue”...
Page 272: [Update]
[Record Only] [Enter] [Enter]- adds the current manual data to the selected cue. [Record Only] [Cue] [x] [Enter] [Enter] - adds the current manual data to cue “x”. [Update] Update is a powerful feature, and also very versatile. Using a combination of [Q Only], [Track], [Trace], and {Make Absolute}, the number of ways you can update specific information and manual data is virtually endless.
Page 273 Channels that have been manually added to the stage output, but are not overrides of an active cue will update to the selected cue list. Once you have made a selection from the available options, press [Enter] and the target will be updated.
Page 274 Cue 5 is active and onstage. Channels 5 through 20 are currently referencing preset 1. You make changes to channels 5 through 9. The data for these changes is now manual. Press: [Record Only] [Enter] [Enter] If there were other changes on stage, you could have used: [5] [Thru] [9] [Record Only] [Enter] [Enter] Only the manual data will be recorded as an update to cue 5.
Page 275 Using Trace [Trace] works just as Track does, except it allows changes to be tracked backwards through the cue list, until it sees a move instruction. A trace will track into, but not beyond, a blocked instruction. For a more detailed summary of Trace, please see Using Trace (on page 15) Following are some examples: [Update] <Cue>...
Page 276: Recording And Editing Cues From Blind
If you are currently in cue 5 and you want to update through cue 10, you would use the fol- lowing syntax: [Update] [Thru] <Cue> [10] <CueOnly/Track> [Enter] Update [+] [+] can be used to specify a range of cues for updating. [+] can also be used with [Record] and [Record Only].
Page 277 {Iris} [At] [Enter] The Iris value from the previous cue tracks in. Then you remove the intensity change as well: {Intensity} [At] [Enter] All values from the previous cue track in. Instead of using multiple commands, you can, in one command, return the channels to their values from the previous cue: [1] [Thru] [5] [At] [Enter] The impact of blind edits on subsequent cues is determined by the default setting of Track/ Cue Only...
Page 278 Editing From the Blind Spreadsheet The blind spreadsheet is another useful blind view of cue data. While in blind, press [Format] to access the spreadsheet. See Spreadsheet (Blind Only) (on page 60) for more information. In spreadsheet view, cues are listed on the y axis and channels/ parameters are displayed on the x axis.
Page 279: Deleting Cues
When cues are moved, values that were tracks or move instructions and now match the previous cue will be auto-blocked by the system. The impact on subsequent cues is based on track/cue only settings as described above. Below is an example of Move To: [Cue] [2] Move To <Cue>...
Page 280: Using The Cue List Index
In this instance, if you used the [Q Only] button in the delete instruction, cue 5 would be deleted, but the tracked values in cue 6 that originated in cue 5 would remain and be converted to move instruc- tions. Deleting In Cue Only Mode When the console is in cue only mode, any subsequent tracked values are not eliminated, but are converted to move instructions instead.
Page 281 Using the mouse, you can move the barrier between the stored cue display (top) and the stored list display (bottom). Hover the mouse arrow over the list boundary until it changes to the move bound- ary icon. Then click and drag the boundary up or down to the desired height. Command Line Behavior for Cue List Index The command line while in the Cue List Index defaults to cue list selection.
Page 282 Cue List 1 is being used by one programmer and Cue List 2 was programmed by a second programmer. For the run of the show, the lists are synced so they run together. But if changes need to be made to Cue List 2 and not be affected by the playback of Cue List 1, {Solo Mode} can be used.
Page 283 The following options are available in this configuration menu: Display Cue Parts - displays the individual parts of a part cue. When not enabled, the number of parts for that cue will display as a superscript number beside the cue's number. Display Cue Links - displays the Link/Loop (on page 261) information.

Page 285 Assert Assert can be turned on or off at the fader level. This property sets the entire cue list to be asserted on playback (even track instructions are replayed). Priority Note: Priority was previously called Independent. Priority is used to protect values from being affected by submasters or playback faders that have a lower priority level.
Page 286 Go From Last Go From Last controls the behavior that happens when you press the [Go] button while in the last cue. The following are Go From Last options: Do Nothing (Default Setting) - keeps the last cue in the list active. Cue Out - only fades out channels in that cue list.
Page 287 Tap or click on {Chan Filter} to assign channels or groups. Tap or click on {Param Filter} to open a list of available parameters that you can filter. Note: Filters will travel with their assigned cue lists wherever they are mapped. When a filter has been applied, an indicator will display in the fader ribbon.
Page 288 Fader Options The following options are available for a playback fader: Master - fader will be a proportional master, a manual master, or an intensity master, depend- ing on the cue list property. Effect Rate - fader centers to home. It controls the rate of any running effects (same behavior as using rate via the Effect Status Display).

Page 300: About Advanced Manual Control
About Advanced Manual Control This section describes some advanced features for manual control functions. These features can save you valuable programming time. For additional manual control functions, see About Basic Manual Control (on page 170) Using [Copy To] [Copy To] allows you to copy all data from one channel to another, either within the current working mode or to a different record target.
Page 301 [1][2] [Copy To] [2] [Sneak] <Time> 7 [Enter] Copies the recorded data from channel 12 to channel 2 and sneaks it in 7 seconds. Using the {HTP} softkey with [Copy To] will cause any intensity levels to be ignored if they are less than or equal to the copied value.
Page 302: Using [Recall From]
Using [Recall From] [Recall From] is similar to [Copy To], except that it retrieves data from other locations, and can be used only for a channel list recalling from the same channel list but in a different location (for example, a cue). [Recall From] is essentially a “copy from” command. For information on using [Copy To], see Using [Copy To] (on page 298) All parameter data for selected channels will be recalled, or by using the IFCB category buttons or...
Page 303: Using {Make Null
Channel 1 will remain at 50% and channel 2 will go to full. Recall From Park You can use [Recall From] [Park] to set a channel or parameter to the same level as the current park value. For Example: Channels 1 through 5 are parked at 55. To recall that level to channels in live or blind, use the following syntax: [1] [Thru] [1][5] [Recall From] [Park] [Enter] Channels 1 through 5 will be set to 55 and channels 6 through 15 will be unaffected.
Page 304 Make Null In Blind When applied in Blind, {Make Null} can be used to mask instructions in a cue after it has already been stored. A {Make Null} instruction can also be applied to channels/ parameters in palettes, presets, and submasters, thereby removing the data from the target entirely, in the same way that [At] [Enter] does.
Page 305: Using {Make Manual
Using {Make Manual} The {Make Manual} softkey can be used to convert cue or submaster data into manual values, allow- ing it to be included in [Record], [Record Only], and [Update] operations. [5] {Make Manual} [Enter] - selects channel 5 and makes all of its current parameter settings manual data.

For Example: [1] [Thru] [9] [At] [Full] [Capture] [Enter] A “C” is displayed next to the captured parameters (intensity) in the channel display. The selected channels are now captured and are unavailable for playback or submaster instruc- tions until they are released from capture.

Page 308: Using [Undo]
In the Live/ Blind display, any channels meeting this criteria will be selected. You may use [Next] and [Last] to cycle through the query selection, one channel at a time to control only a specific channel. Other examples of using a query are: [Query] {Isn’t In} [Beam Palette] [2] [5] [Enter] [Query] {Accessory} {Can Be} [Color Palette] [8] [Enter] [Query] {Unpatched} [Delete] [Enter] [Enter]...
Page 309 After an Undo has been performed, a {Redo} button will appear in the command history. You may press this button followed by [Enter] and the last undo will be “redone” to reinstate the removed commands In a multiple user environment, each user is only able to undo the changes that they made. In the undo command history, the user will only see the commands that they used.

Assume you have cue list 1 already loaded to the master playback faders. Now you want to load cue 2/1 to a fader. [Cue] [2] [/] [1] [Load] If you press the [Load] button above the master playback fader, it will load cue 2/1 into the pending file.
Page 315 Cue is re-executed using [Assert] & [Load] or is asserted from the command line. (Using Assert (Playback Button) (on page 319)) Generally, when an out-of-sequence cue is executed, the entire contents of the cue will be played back (move instructions and tracked values). For Example: Cue 1 sets channel 1 to full.
Page 316 [Go To Cue] [8] [Time] [Enter] - this command would take you to cue 8 using all timing values stored in cue 8. Other Go To Cue Options When [Go to Cue] is pressed, the softkeys in the CIA change to provide Go to Cue modifiers to enhance your playback ability.
Page 317: Virtual Faders
Go to Cue Out [Go to Cue] [x] [/] [Out] [Enter] allows you to use the [Go to Cue] [Out] command on a list specific basis. [Go to Cue] [Out] continues to affect all active cue lists. Note: [Go to Cue] [x] [/] [Out] is similar to [Go to Cue] [x] [/] [0] except that any NPs on the fader will fade to their home level.
Page 318: Displaying Fader Pages With Content
When the first cue is stored on Eos, the cue list of that cue automatically loads on the master fader. Any subsequent cue lists stored will load to the next available fader. Assigning Faders Manually The location of playbacks, submasters, palettes, and presets on faders can also be defined as the con- tents of those targets are stored.
Page 319: Changing Fader Pages
Pages 1 through 3 and page 11 have content. If on page 2 you press [Fader Page], you will see pages 3 then 11. After page 11, you will jump back to page 1. When on page 11, as you press [Shift] & [Fader Page] you will see page 3. Changing Fader Pages You can page through the 100 available pages of faders by pressing [Fader Page], which will advance you one page for each press.
Page 320 Using [Go] The [Go] button is used to execute the cue currently in the pending file of the associated fader. When [Go] is pressed, all parameters assume their required positions in the recorded times, unless they have been recorded with manual timing. When a cue has manual timing values stored with it, the fader will set itself to zero when [Go] is pressed, or you may set the fader to zero before you press [Go].

Page 334: About Effects
About Effects Effects are a method within Eos to provide dynamic, repetitive action to channels.This chapter explains the different types of effects, and how to use them. Effects are manual control functions that can be applied to a channel parameter and then included in presets, cues, or submasters.
Page 335: Effects Editor
To navigate this list use the navigation keys as described in Display Control and Navigation (on page 48) or select the effect number you wish to work with. Notice that when you select the effect list, the CIA changes to display the information for the currently selected effect. Effect List Navigation Using the [Next]/ [Last] keys will only move between effects in the effect list display.
Page 336 Type Defines the effect type: step-based, absolute, or relative (linear, focus, or color). To change the type, press {Type} and then press the desired effect type in the buttons to the left. <Effect> [1] {Type} {Step based} [Enter] Scale Applies only to relative effects. This modifies the amount the pattern is offset from the current para- meter values.
Page 337 Parameters This allows you to select which parameters will be involved in the selected effect, by default. By enter- ing a value here, you do not need to specify the required parameter when placing an effect on a chan- nel group. To add/ remove parameters to the effect, press {Parameters} and then select the desired parameters from the buttons that appear to the left.
Page 338 Entry Establishes at what time and how channels will enter the effect. To change the entry method press {Entry} and then choose a method from the buttons to the left. Entry modes vary by effect type. The options are: {Cascade} - channels enter the effect according to the trail and cycle time values (if applic- able).
Page 339: Effect Status Display
{Grouping} [2] - every other channel (in a range of channels) will be grouped when running the effect. When an effect is applied to a group in live, that group is distributed by order, using this grouping function. If a group list is created and an effect applied, each group is considered an individual ele- ment within the effect.
Page 340 This display shows you any currently running effects and gives you the ability to edit the effect while running. When an effect is selected, the encoders and encoder screen change to allow you to manip- ulate the effect according to rate, size, horizontal form, vertical form, and axis. For Example: To edit an effect, select the effect using the command line or select it directly from the CIA.
Page 341: Effect Channel Display
Grey - property is drawn directly from the effect. Red - property has been manually modified but not stored. Blue - property is an override to the saved effect. Magenta - property is tracking from a previous cue. Clicking on the Attributes column will open the Effect Attribute Override display. From that display, you can access most of the same properties as those found in the Effect Editor.
Page 342: Step Effects
The following properties can be overridden: Rate Size Axis (Focus Effects Only) H Form (Focus Effects Only) V Form (Focus Effects Only) Note: To add a channel level override, first you will need to be in the Effect Channel display with the effect running.
Page 343 Here is an example of a step effect when viewed in the CIA: If an effect step is on the command line or indicated in the blue text to the left of the command line, entering a number on the command line will default to selecting a step for the current selected effect.

Page 346 In the above image, actions 1 through 7 indicate referenced values in the “Level” column (palettes or presets), though these values can be absolute data as well. If an effect action is on the command line or indicated in the blue text to the left of the command line, entering a number on the command line will default to selecting a action for the previous selec- ted effect.
Page 347 {Action} [1] [Enter] The action will populate the chart and will remain selected. You can also create a range of actions at once, using the [Thru] button, if desired. Use the page keys to navigate to the dif- ferent columns After arrowing to the “Time”...

[Color Palette] [1] [Thru] [3] - assigns color palettes 1 through 3 to the actions 1 through 6. Actions 1 through 3 will be assigned to palettes 1 through 3. Action 4 will be assigned to color palette 1. The range will wrap to fill any available actions. Effect Background Value Modification For Step and Absolute effects, you can use [+], [-], and [/] to adjust the background value .

rules of HTP. But, for example, if you were to have three separate effects running on three separate effects submasters and you try to record that into one cue, the cue will only run the effects that were currently at the highest level at the moment of the record. Relative Effects A relative effect is an offset from the current state of a channel parameter.
Page 351 New color effects default to a circle. You can clear this and draw your own shape by pressing {Edit}> {Clear} and drawing on the graph with your finger or the mouse. Press {Apply} when you are done. Other pre-made color effects can be modified in the same manner. The green arrow indicates default direction of color shift, which can be modified in attributes.

Page 355 There are several submaster button and fader configuration options that affect how effects run. See Submaster Fader and Button Configuration (on page 369) for more information about those options. Configuring an Effect Submaster To configure an effect submaster, press: [Sub] [x] {Properties} [Enter] Note: The {Properties} softkey will open the submaster properties display in the CIA.
Page 356 Effect on an Effect/ Intensity Master Submaster Pressing the bump button starts the effect. The fader controls the rate and/ or size based on the effect’s entry behavior. Pressing the bump button again stops the effect. In other words, there is no difference between a proportional fader and an intensity master when the submaster is configured to be an effect submaster.

About Park The park instruction allows you to set a channel or parameter to a specific value and have it remain at that level on stage (live mode), prohibiting manual control override, cue or submaster playback modi- fication. Park may also be used to place a scaling instruction on the intensity output of a channel. Note: A parked channel intensity is not impacted by grandmaster or blackout operations.

Page 366: About Submasters
About Submasters Submasters can store any parameter data for channels. When storing from Live, Record Only and Record can both be used to determine what contents are stored. You can copy cues, presets, or palettes to a submaster as well. Channels running effects can be loaded onto a submaster. See Effects on Faders (on page 352) Submasters can be controlled by faders or by the keypad.
Page 367: Submaster List
[Record] [Both Bump Buttons] - records all current values to the fader associated with the bump buttons. Submaster will be stored with the number associated with the chosen fader. You can also record selected channel data to submasters as well. [Channel List] [Record] [Sub] [5] [Enter] - records all data for the channel list to submaster 5.
Page 368 If a fader has been configured for default mapping in the fader configuration display, the fader will receive its configuration from the Submaster List. Changes made to a submaster in the submaster list will be shared with any default mapping faders loaded with that submaster. If changes are made to a fader set to default mapping in the fader configuration display, those changes will also happen in the Submaster List.
Page 369 Once the non-intensity-parameters are at their end state, the slider only controls intensity. When dropped toward zero, controlled intensities will be faded toward zero. When non-intensity parameters on a intensity master submaster have been marked using the bump button, the LED on its bump button will blink to tell you that the non-intensity parameters have been marked.
Page 370 Background Submasters can have their background states disabled. Background states are enabled by default. When enabled, the content of the submaster will act as a background or previous state for other cues and submasters. When a submaster has its background state disabled, a “D” will be displayed in the Submaster List background column.
Page 371 Nothing When Stomped - no action happens to the submaster. Release When Stomped -This function behaves the same as Off When Stomped. Unmark at 0% When this option is on, marked content controlled by the submaster will automatically be released when the fader reaches 0%.
Page 372 Button Options The following options are available for submaster buttons: Bump - plays back the submaster at 100% of the recorded level. It will continue to do so until released, unless the submaster has a time assigned or the {Hold} property set. Group/Assert - selects all the channels associated with the submaster, if the submaster is inactive.
Page 373: Submaster Information
Rate Master - homes to center. It adjusts the cue rate, just like rate and load. Fader Disabled - no action is assigned to the fader. Master Only - fader is used to set a level for content to fade to. The slider can be used to live adjust levels when the fader has been activated via the bump button.
Page 374: Using Bump Button Timing With Submasters
[Sub] [5] [Load] - loads submaster 5 to the fader associated with the load button. [Int Palette] [1] [Load] - loads intensity palette 1 to the submaster associated with the chosen load button. [Cue] [5] [Sub] [4] [Enter] - loads the contents of cue 5 to submaster 4 (a {CopyTo} command will appear within the syntax on the command line).
Page 375: Freeze And Stopeffect On Submasters

Page 394: About Curves
About Curves A curve is a relationship between the timing of a fade and the output level of a cue, cue part or dim- mer at each point of time during that fade. By using a non-linear curve, you can create of variety of effects, accommodate variations and deficiencies in your lighting equipment, alter the transition ramp and protect equipment from stress.
Page 395: Editing Curves
Editing Curves Using the Keypad Once selected and displayed in the CIA, you can edit a curve from the keypad. Points are established in increments of five. You can add more points from the keypad. [3] [At] [1] [Enter] - adds control input point “3” and sets its curve level at 10%. [7] [7] [At] [Full] [Enter] - adds control input point “77”...
Page 396: Applying A Curve To Channels In Patch
Clearing the Curve At any time, you can clear a curve from the curve editor display by pressing the {Clear Points} softkey. This will return the curve to its original linear shape or to its default shape if it is a pre-estab- lished curve.

[Record] [Snapshot] [1] On Element 2, you will need to use the {Snapshot} softkey. When recording a snapshot, you will see a preview of all of the displays as they will be recorded in the snapshot. You can choose to select/ deselect various components, monitors, frames, etc from your snapshot.
Page 401 On Element 2, the snapshot display is different, and you will only have the visible workshapes and all workspaces option available. From the snapshot menu, the following options are available: Visible Workspaces - includes only the visible workspaces. All Workspaces - include all workspaces, including those not visible at the time of recording. Faders - captures the current state of the faders including: fader page mapping, position of all submasters, and pending cues based on configuration.
Page 402: Recalling Snapshots
Monitors and frames can also be selected or deselected in the preview area. Use the {Frames/Mon- itors} button to select whether you will see monitor or frame numbers in the preview area. When a monitor or frame has been deselected, it will be greyed out. Deselected frames will also have a small red circle with a slash on them.
Page 403: Editing Snapshots
Note: In a system with multiple users, it is recommended that you allot discrete snapshot numbers for each user. Since snapshots are global and can be recorded/ recalled from most devices, assigning numbers for each user will ensure their snapshots are stored and edited properly for their device.

Page 438: About Virtual Media Server
About Virtual Media Server The virtual media server feature of Eos is comprised of two areas, the virtual media server and its vir- tual layers, and pixel maps. These areas are completely dependent on each other. The virtual media server is a feature used to create layouts of fixtures, known as pixel maps, which then applies media content (images, movies, text, and procedurally generated effects) by way of vir- tual media layers to the pixel map.
Page 439: Exporting Media Content
Options in this display include: {Library (1-255)} - selects the library to import media. {File (0-255)} - selects the file number. {Reorder Libraries} - specify whether or not the library on the source device will be renumbered. If the source device’s library is not numbered, it will be assigned the specified lib- rary number.
Page 440: Patching The Virtual Media Server And Layers
In the patch display, enter the channel number that will be your virtual media server. Press {Type} then {Manufctr} to display the fixture library. Select {ETC}, {Virtual}, and then {Server_Ver_1.0}. Enter the channel numbers that will be your virtual media layers. Press {Type} then {Manufctr} to dis- play the fixture library.

The display can also be opened from the home screen, or by using [Tab] [9]. Note: Hovering your cursor above the pixel map will display the column and row location for the pixel.
Page 442 Once the pixels have been selected, you need to select their fixture type and then assign the starting address or starting channel. When either {Starting Channel} or {Starting Address} is selected, both fields will be cleared. Address-based pixels can not overlap with channel-based pixels. This includes the entire DMX fixture footprint.
Page 443: Working With The Virtual Media Server
Working with the Virtual Media Server Before you begin working with the Virtual Media Server, you will want to open the Pixel Map Preview display from the home screen or by using [Tab] [1][0]. For manipulating the pixel maps, you can use either the encoders or the ML Controls, which can be opened from the home screen, by using [Tab] [5], or by using the quick access tools.

Page 454: About Partitioned Control
About Partitioned Control Partitioned control allows discrete control and programming of channels between multiple pro- grammers. When multiple programmers are working on an Eos Family system, partitioned control can be used to restrict a specific user’s access to certain channels. This can help avoid overlapping control of channels by multiple programmers at once.
Page 455: Deleting Partitions
This will create a new partition, highlight it in the list, and (if partition is enabled) assign it as your par- tition. To assign channels to that partition, enter them in the command line: [1] [Thru] [9] [6] [Enter] You can also use [+], [-], and [Group] to further modify the channels in the partition. When adding/ subtracting channels to a partition, if you do not use [+] or [-] before channel numbers, the numbers will replace the channels in the partition, rather than adding to or subtracting from them.
Page 456: Partitions On Cue Lists
Element 2 is limited to one cue list. Partitions on Cue Lists A partition may be assigned to a cue list. If a partition has already been applied to a cue list, any chan- nels not in the cue list's partition will not be included in cues when they stored or replayed. Any data for a cue list that already existed before a partition is applied, will be maintained, including data for channels not included in the partition.

Page 460 Any Eos, Eos Ti, Gio, Gio @ 5, Ion Xe, and Ion console, RPU,RVI, ETCnomad, and ETCnomad Puck can be a separate user on the Eos Family network. Certain devices work well as independent users while others are intended to share a user ID with another device.
Page 461 Set in the Setup (see Users (on page 159)), User ID is an Eos-specific identifier that can be set uniquely for each Eos device or can be shared between multiple devices allowing for shared data between consoles. The user ID can be set anywhere from 1 to 99. The decision to share a user ID is based on the desire to share a common workspace and command line.
Page 462 When multiple programmers are working on the system, partitioned control can be used to restrict a specific user’s access to certain channels. This can help avoid overlapping control of channels by mul- tiple programmers at once.

Page 495: Show Control
C h a p t e r 3 0 Show Control Eos Family consoles support a variety of show control protocols. Specific information about using each type of show control can be found in each type’s section. This chapter contains the following topics: About Eos Family Show Control Show Control Settings Show Control Display...
Page 496: About Eos Family Show Control
About Eos Family Show Control The following is an overview of the show control types and general setup information. The Eos Family can use the following show control protocols: SMPTE - An analog signal indicating time (subdivided into hours, minutes, seconds, and frames) that is used to sync events between multiple devices.
Page 497: Show Control Settings
Show Control Settings In [Setup]>{System}>{Show Control}, you can adjust settings for MIDI Show Control, time code (MIDI or SMPTE), analog, and serial functions. See Show Control Setup (below) Show Control Setup This section allows you to adjust settings for MIDI show control, time code (MIDI or SMPTE), analog, and serial functions.
Page 498 {MIDI Time Code Rx} As above, but for MIDI Time Code instead of SMPTE. The default for this setting is “Enabled”. {MSC Rx Device ID} Also known as a “device ID” this setting configures the MIDI channel for the console to receive MIDI Show Control information.
Page 499 This setting specifies the UDP port that the console will listen to for OSC receiving strings. Note: ETC recommends using 8000 and 8001 respectively for port numbers. Remember that when setting port numbers on your external device that they should be set to the opposite of what Eos is set.
Page 500 {OSC TX Port Number} This sets the UDP destination port to which the console will send OSC strings. {OSC Cue Send String} Allows the user to specify a different outgoing OSC string format for integration with other applic- ations. Use %1 in the string format as cue number and %2 as the cue list number. {OSC TX IP Address} This sets the destination IP address or addresses to which the console will send OSC strings.
Page 501 Port Setup Options Eos Ti, Gio, Eos RPU3, Gio @5, Ion Xe, Element 2, Ion, Ion RPU, Element, and Eos Programming Wing have additional ports and connectors located on the rear panel for show control. Additional setup options for these ports and connectors are in the ECU>{Settings}>{Local I/O} and in ECU>{Settings}>...
Page 502 Relay Out (remote trigger connector) Allows you to set the Group and Address In values for the remote trigger port on the back of your console. Interface Protocols Additional settings are found in the ECU>Settings>Network. Open Sound Control (OSC) (on page 539) for more information.
Page 503: Show Control Display
Show Control Display The Show Control Display allows for the creation of event lists, which are comprised of events. An Event List defines how incoming show control events are processed by the console – any protocol that can be received by the console is handled here. Each event list uses a different type of show con- trol at a time (time code, analog inputs, RTC, or network).
Page 504 Softkeys are available for the various event options: Event - is the event number, used to select or create a specific event from the command line. Can also use [Next]/[Last] to select/navigate through the events. Note: The event number is not fixed, it is just provided as a way to select an event. For example, in time code lists, the events are always chronological.
Page 505 Softkeys are available for the various event list options: List - is the event list number. <Event> [1][/][Enter] - creates event list 1. Label - names the event list. Type - sets which type of show control protocol to use; MTC, SMPTE, Analog, Network, or RTC.
Page 506 Analog inputs and network inputs use the external setting only as a way to enable and disable the entire list. Creating an Event List Getting started with an event list is the same regardless of which show control protocol you are using.
Page 507: Time Code
Time Code Eos Family consoles can receive internal or external time code to execute event lists. Time code lists can receive timing data from either SMPTE or MIDI sources. Eos Family consoles accept up to 32 SMPTE sources and 32 MIDI Time Code (MTC) sources (each are numbered from 1- 32).
Page 508 Timing and Clocks The internal and external clocks can be enabled separately for each time code list. If you enable the external clock only, events will play back as long as valid timing data is received from an external source. When the timing data stops, the events will stop. When you enable the internal clock only, it starts running immediately and triggers events appro- priate to the time.
Page 509 <Event> [1] [/] {FrameRate} [2] [5] [Enter] When working in Live, to show the Time Code times in the Cue List, go to the Cue List Display. [Cue] [Cue] Select the Cue List to be triggered. [Cue] [1] [/] Now associate the Event List to the Selected Cue List. [Cue] [1] [/] {Execute} {Timecode} {1} [Enter] Both the Event List and the Cue List are ready for events to be added.
Page 510 Event timing can also be modified within a range. Let's say an additional 5 frames needs to be added to multiple events. <Event> [1] [Thru] [4] [Time] [+] [5] [Enter] Note: You will notice as events are added to the event list, the time code will display on the Playback Status Display.
Page 511 A {Learn Events} softkey is available in the event list. This macro-able item allows you to enable and disable show control learn mode. Macros containing this softkey will not be included in learned events. Other Macros can be learned as events in an Event List. Use {SC Learn} softkey in the Macro Editor to enable/ disable excluding specific Macros from being learned as events.
Page 512: Real Time Clock (Rtc)
Real Time Clock (RTC) Eos Family consoles have the ability to run Real Time Clock (RTC) events. RTC events are used to run a cue, submaster, or macro at a specific time on specific days. RTC events can run at a certain time of day, like 5:00pm on Tuesdays, a certain date, or at a time based off of astronomical events, such as sunrise and sunset.
Page 513 <Event> [1] [Time] [1] [5] [0] [0] [Enter] - sets the time for 3:00pm. <Event> [1] {Days} {Mon} {Wed} {Fri} [Enter] - adds on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Note: Days of the week can either be entered in from their softkeys, or you can enter them in from the keypad using the conventional modifiers (+, -, thru).
Page 514: Analog Inputs
Analog Inputs Eos Family consoles can accept analog input through a variety of interfaces. 0-10VDC inputs are received through a Net3 I/O Gateway. Contact closures can be received through the built-in remote trigger port on the desk (when available) and through a Net3 I/O Gateway. The I/O Gateway can be set up through the Net3 Concert software.
Page 515 <Event> [4] [/] {Internal} [Enter] Create an analog input event where an input on address 1 will fire cue 10. <Event> [4] [/] [1] {Analog Address} [1] [Cue] [1] [0] [Enter] Note: As there is no action softkey, pressing [Cue], [Sub], or [Macro] assumes you are post- ing to the action field.
Page 516 submaster On. If the submaster is set to a dwell time of Hold, the second trigger will turn the sub- master Off. Create an analog input event where an input on address 6 will bump Sub 1. <Event> [4] [/] [1] {Address} [6] [Sub] [2] {Bump} [Enter] Fader Acts as if the input is directly controlling the fader on the submaster.
Page 517 Relay Outputs Eos Family consoles can trigger relay outputs on Net3 I/O Gateways and on the built-in relay output (when available). Relay outputs are also often called remote triggers, contact closures, or contact out- puts. Relay outputs are controlled by external links in cues and submasters only. Note: You enter relay information in the live or blind displays.
Page 518: Sacn Input
sACN Input Eos Family consoles can receive streaming ACN (sACN) level information from itself and other devices on the lighting control network. Similar to Analog Inputs, these received sACN input levels can then be used by the Event List display to execute certain actions. sACN allows for multiple sources to be present on the network.

Page 520: Midi Show Control
MIDI Show Control Eos Family consoles can receive MIDI Show Control (MSC) data from Net3 Show Control Gateways and the built-in MIDI ports on a console or programming wing (when available). There can be up to 32 sources, and these sources can be assigned Group IDs between 1 and 32. MIDI Show Control is one of many different types of MIDI signals –...
Page 521 When accompanying a MIDI “Go” command, data for the following fields will result in the following actions: Cue Data Field List Data Field Action List Runs the specified cue in the specified cue list Runs the specified cue in cue list 1 List Runs the next cue in the specified list Runs the next cue in cue list 1...
Page 522 Fire This command fires a macro. MSC supports macros 1 through 127 only. Therefore a numeric value of 1 through 127 followed by 00 (in hex) would accompany this command. Sending MIDI Show Control When MSC Transmit is enabled in Setup (see Show Control Settings (on page 495)), the console will send MIDI Show Control commands to the specified MSC Transmit Channel (or Device ID) that cor-...
Page 523 Set - controls a submaster, playback, or Grandmaster = Command 06 Fire - runs a macro = Command 07 The other parts of the string are standardized. F0 7F and the ending F7 are parts of the standard MIDI System Exclusive message format. The 02 specifies the protocol is MIDI Show Control. Go, Stop, Resume The cue commands can target any available cue on the console.
Page 524 3. Playback Masters and Grandmasters – send the fader number, followed by 00 (in hex), and then the level value. You do not need to end the command with 00. For example, setting the grandmaster to 75% would be sent as 7E 03 00 4B For example, sending Device ID 3 a SET command for sub 4 to 0% would be formatted as follows: F0 7F 03 02 01 06 04 00 00 00 7F As a second example, sending Device ID 10 a SET command for the playback master “up”...
Page 525: String Interface
String Interface RS232, UDP serial strings, ACN EPI strings, and OSC commands can be sent and received from the console. Enabling Serial You can configure sending and receiving the various serial protocols supported by the desk in Setup, Show Control Settings (on page 495).
Page 526 Note: Command line text needs to use the same language as your console. Language set- tings are found in ECU>General. Event Handler (Non-Command Line) All other text that doesn’t start with a “$” will be sent to the console’s event handler. Here are a few examples: Go 1 - fire cue list 1 Cue 1 2 - run cue 2 from list 1, on the appropriate fader...
Page 527 Note: Text requires either a carriage return (hex 0d), “\r”, or “#” to terminate the com- mand line. Receiving UDP Strings UDP strings must be sent to the console’s IP address (unicast) and designated port to be processed. Multicast and broadcast UDP strings are not supported. To find your console’s IP address, clear the command line and press [About].
Page 528 For Example: SC Hello# - sends the string “Hello” to the show control display via RS232, UDP, or OSC Strings For OSC commands that are intended to be processed by the Show Control display, the sending device needs to start the string with /eos/sc/ in order for the console to correctly process it. For Example: /eos/sc/Hello –...
Page 529 The sending device needs to start the command with /eos/sc/ in order for the console to listen to it. For example, type Hello in the Input String field. On your OSC sending device, have it send /eos/sc/Hello. Type in the string you want the console to listen for. The sending device needs to add “SC”...
Page 530 softkey. A {String} softkey will be displayed. When {String} is pressed, the alphanumeric keyboard will display. Enter the desired string, press [Enter] and text entered will be displayed in the external links field of the playback status display. If there is already a string linked to the selected cue, the string will be displayed for editing. When [Cue] [n] {Execute} {String} is on the command line, pressing [Next] / [Last] will step through all the strings used in that show file.
Page 531 Note: String MIDI Tx is restricted by {MIDI Cue List} in Setup. See Show Control Settings page 495). Sending UDP Strings UDP strings will be sent from the console on an ephemeral (always changing) port number to the des- tination port specified in Setup. UDP strings sent to multicast IP addresses are not supported. Note: The console can be configured to send either ACN strings or UDP strings, as they share the String Tx IP Address field.
Page 532: Midi Raw
MIDI Raw Also known as MIDI Strings, MIDI Notes, MIDI Messages, or Channelized Event Data. Originally inten- ded for communication between musical instruments, MIDI has been adapted for a variety of uses between devices. Eos Family consoles can send or receive MIDI messages through the built-in MIDI ports (when available).
Page 533 Message Structure Note On has a structure of 9A BC DD, where 9 represents the Note On command, A represents the channel number, B represents the octave of the note, C represents the note value, and DD rep- resents the velocity. Note Off has a structure of 8A BC DD, where 8 represents the Note Off command, A represents the channel number, B represents the octave of the note, C represents the note value, and DD rep- resents the velocity.
Page 534 Velocity 0, Threshold 50 - The console is looking for an incoming MIDI note with a velocity that is greater than or equal to 50 (hex 32). If the note with a velocity of 0 is received, the event will also fire as it matches the velocity parameter. Velocity 0, Threshold 0 –...
Page 535 Control Change commands were designed to represent specific actions on MIDI devices, like pedals actuations and effects. For example, the Damper Pedal on a keyboard is often represented by con- troller number 64 (hex 40). Similar to MIDI Note commands, the MIDI data that is expected to be received is shown in the CIA and changes as you select event parameters.
Page 536 Message Structure Please see Hexadecimal and MIDI Show Control Formatting (on page 520) for more information on the show control message structures. Options The following options are available: {Commands} Go, Stop, Resume - represents triggering a cue, stopping a cue, and resuming a cue, respect- ively.
Page 537 {Note On} Select the MIDI Note value, for example, Bb (B-flat) {A#/Bb} Select the MIDI Note octave or leave it as Any. In this example, we’ll choose Any. <Octave> {Any} Select the MIDI channel <Channel> {1} Select the velocity <Velocity> {127} Optionally, select the velocity threshold so that the event will be triggered if the message is above this level.

Page 539 {OK} Specify the action for the event <Event> [4] [Sub] [1] {On} [Enter] Sending MIDI MIDI messages can be sent from cues and subs (using {Execute}) or from a Macro. Cues and Submasters After selecting a cue and pushing {Execute}, the {MIDI Raw} softkey becomes available. Notes can either be input using hexadecimal values (00 through FF) or decimal (0 through 255) values depend- ing on the connected device.
Page 540 Macros A {MIDI Raw} softkey is available in the macro editor display. Any text entered after the string com- mand in the macro will be sent to all string interfaces when that macro is fired. The same syntax applies in macros as they would in cues – either hexadecimal or decimal values can be entered. Eos Family Operations Manual...
Page 541: Open Sound Control (Osc)
Open Sound Control (OSC) Open Sound Control (OSC) is a protocol that uses network communication (wired or wireless) to communicate between varying audio, video and lighting devices. Using OSC An OSC command contains a method and an optional list of arguments, or additional data for a par- ticular command.
Page 542 When using UDP, the appropriate IP address and ports must be configured in the Show Con- trol section of Setup. For systems without specific networking requirements, ETC recommends UDP port assignments in the range 4703 to 4727 or 8000 and 8001.
