Linking Cues

In some situations you may want to link one cue to another in the same cue list, effectively jumping over some cues. You do this by editing the Action of a cue.

  1. Using the arrow keys, move the Blue Box to the Action column of the last cue before the jump.

  2. Press [EDIT] or [INSERT] to change the cue's action.

  3. The Cue Action dialog box will appear.

  1. By default, each cue will advance to the next cue in the cue list. Press [S3] to disable the Run next Cue option. The focus will move to the edit box below.

  2. Type in or use the wheel to select the Next Cue. The cue labels will appear to the right of this edit box.

  3. Press [ENTER] to close the dialog box.

  4. The cue list will now show the Link icon with the cue to which the next [GO] will link to:

Note:

You can also use the [VIEW][CUE][#][ENTER] syntax to get the Cue List Properties dialog box to edit these parameters.

Using the Command Line to Links Cues

If you start a command line with [CUE] the softkeys change to Cue specific functions:

Typing [CUE][5] [S3 - LINK TO] [10] [ENTER] allow you link Cue 5 to Cue 10.  If the cue already has a Link, typing [CUE][5] [S3 - LINK TO] [ENTER] will delete the link. If you omit the Cue Number, the current cue number will be used.
