188 Emphasis Console v2.0.0 User Manual

Playback Macros

Macros can be fired directly using the macro keys [M1] through [M3] on Express

facepanels, [M1] through [M5] on Expression and Insight facepanels. To access macros

above the direct keys, use the [M*] key, type the macro number and press [Enter].

To cancel the playback of a macro, press [M*].

You can also fire macros directly from cues, or within a subroutine step. For information on

linking macros to cues, see Link to macros, page 113. For information on inserting a macro

into a subroutine step, see Style Steps, page 144.

When you activate a series of macros, they will queue up in the order of activation. As each

macro completes, the next macro in the queue will fire.

Remote Macros

You can use an optional set of switches or keys to fire macros remotely using the Remote

Macros function. See Remote Macros, page 205 for configuration information and Using

Remote Macros, page 257 for information on wiring. When you activate a series of macros

remotely, they will queue up in the order of activation. As each macro completes, the next

macro in the queue will fire.

CAUTION:

By activating a series of macros remotely, they will queue up in the order of

activation. As each macro completes, the next macro in the queue will fire. When

cue loops are required, use subroutines instead of macros. Macros that fire

themselves are not recommended as the self-repeating macro never completes

and therefore successive macros will not be triggered. If subroutines do not

produce the cue structure needed, consider a time code program using the internal

time clock function for playback.

Startup Macro

You can also set the system to fire a macro at startup. The Startup Macro executes as soon

as the show file completely loads into Emphasis Console and Emphasis Visualization. The

Emphasis Visualization option Reload last document on startup must be enabled for the

Startup Macro to run. See the Emphasis Visualization User Manual for more information on

setting the startup preferences.

Enable the Startup Macro:

Step 1: Press [Setup] [2] [Enter] to view the Options Settings.

Step 2: Press [7] [Enter] to select Startup Macro.

Step 3: Press:

• [x] [Enter] to set macro [x] as the Startup Macro. An “S” will be displayed

next to the macro number in the Macro List, and the “Startup Macro”

message will be displayed in the View Macro and Macro Editing displays.

• [0] [Enter] to clear the Startup Macro.
