In order for timecode to trigger a cuelist, that cuelist must be active. In other words, you must
already be running a cue in the cuelist for timecode to trigger later cues. This is accomplished by
recording a "mark" cue. In this usage, a mark cue is a cue that contains no information, it simply
starts the cuelist. An example would be to record a ".5" cue before the first cue in your cuelist.
This would be a manual cue with no information in it. Any cues that follow that have a timecode
trigger would then be executed.

When you first set the cuelist to the type Timecode, all of the times will be listed as "Manual
Trigger." This means that timecode will not execute the cue. Maxxyz allows you to change the
trigger time by manually entering the values for hours, minutes, seconds and frames in much the
same way you would change the time of a standard cue. Recalling that the format for SMPTE
timecode is HH:MM:SS:FF, use the following steps to set the trigger time:
• With "Edit Mode" on, press or click the legend "Manual Trigger [--]" on the cue you wish change.
The command line will read "Set Cue xx TC Time"
• To set the trigger time to 1 minute and 15 frames press 1 1 5 Enter.

The Pause button is used to stop the internal timecode generator
without resetting it to zero. To resume, press the Play button.
The stop button is used to stop the internal timecode generator.
Pressing this button will cause the clock to reset to 00:00:00:00
When set to on, the cuelist will "listen" to the selected timecode
generator and the cuelist will follow the timecode. When turned off,
incoming timecode will be ignored. If turned on while timecode is
running, the cuelist will advance to the last executed cue as
determined by the timecode value.
It is possible to use the Go button to manual execute cues in a
timecoded cuelist. When doing this, you may advance in the cuelist
to a point where you are ahead of the timecode. Pressing "Retrack
Now" will resynchronize the cuelist with the incoming timecode
signal.
When selected and a timecode source is present, pressing the Go
button for the timecode cuelist will automatically capture the
timecode time that the cue was executed and save it with the cue for
later playback.
