This powerful new module allows full programming of a complete show in a way very familiar to Theater and TV users.
Cue List adds another dimension to Status Cue and greatly extends the use of this powerful controller. Status Cue® lighting console
Current Features :
System Overview Status Cue is a
versatile and powerful lighting control system with the
ability to control Color Pro, Cyberlight, Cyberlight CX,
Dataflash AF1000, EC-1, Intellabeam, Studio Color,
Technobeam, Technopro, Technoray, and Trackspot fixtures.
Status Cue also offers preset fixture types for numerous
additional DMX controlled lighting instruments and
generic fixture types. These other fixtures enjoy the
same sophistication of control as High End products such
as Cyberlight with the use of dedicated controls,
Palettes and other advanced features. Status Cue provides the designer with the controls and features associated with conventional lighting desks while offering the performance of a dedicated moving light console. The Status Cue system is not only infinitely powerful and expandable, it is comfortable to learn, featuring a control architecture hierarchy that makes sense. All of the many advantages make the Status Cue system the obvious choice for control of automated lighting in any professional situation. Console The Status Cue
system provides up to 18 layers of simultaneous playback
control of connected fixtures. Sixteen of these output
channels are accessed as Fader Presets, and the currently
selected Instant Preset and Live Control constitute the
remaining two output channels. Each Fader Preset features
a high sensitivity fader control, an indicator, and a
Flash key. The fader controls may be used to playback
numerous options, such as dimming, rate control, or
crossfading of Scenes stored in the Fader Presets. Scenes
and sequences may also be stored on one of the banks of
32 Instant Preset buttons ready for immediate recall.
These 32 keys also give quick, easy access to Status
Cues powerful Palette function (preset focus),
rapid Fixture Group selection and Macros. Adjacent to the
Fader Presets is a Master Fader controlling overall
dimming, and a Blackout key, which enables a quick
"cut to black" effect. The Console's
Discrete Construct section includes the COLOR, GOBO, and
ROTATING GOBO key groups. The COLOR group enables control
of all parameters relating to the fixed dichroic color
wheels of all Lightwave Research automated luminaires and
other DMX fixtures, including single and split color
selection, forward and reverse color spins, color
oscillation, and their associated variable speeds. The
GOBO and ROTATING GOBO groups are used to select static
and/or rotating gobos, and control their indexing,
oscillation, and related speed parameters. Application The Status Cue application program was written in the C++ object oriented programming language and runs under Microsoft® Windows 95 on a Pentium® personal computer. The software program provides the graphical user interface to the system and communicates with the Console through the LinkCard. Because the application program utilizes the Windows operating system, Status Cue is capable of supporting high resolution video monitors, MIDI, MTC, MSC, System Exclusive, SMPTE, external trackball, CD ROMs, touch screens, storage systems, and a host of other external devices. The application program features familiar menu type commands and convenient pop-up dialogue boxes for navigation throughout the program. Fixtures and Constructs are matrixed in a dynamic window format for constant monitoring of system information. Most importantly, the computer interface allows for programming to take on familiar computer-oriented characteristics including Click and drag editing, cutting, copying, and pasting. To move a Scene within a Sequence, simply click on the Scene and drag it to another location. In this manner, a Show can be arranged and rearranged in no time. LinkCard Each LinkCard has output connectors that interface to the Console and to the fixtures providing both necessary data and power to the Console and the LinkCard output to the fixtures. Up to four cards, each with two DMX-512 / LWR protocol outputs, may be installed in the computer to expand the system to a total of 4096 DMX channels. Fixture software upgrades for Cyberlight, EC-1, Studio Color, Technobeam, Technopro, Technoray, and future Lightwave Research fixtures may also be performed through these data links. Computer The Status Cue computers from High End Systems are available in industrial rack-mount or desktop configurations. The rack-mount computer is designed to meet the physical demands of the touring industry and the desktop computer is ideal for permanent installations. Both systems feature a 100-MHz Intel Pentium processor and are built to order with the required LinkCards and RAM. Each computer is pre-configured and tested with all hardware and software. Standard software includes Windows 95 and Status Cue for Windows. Standard hardware includes a MIDI card, 12x CD ROM, stereo output 1/4" phone jacks, 1.6 GB IDE hard drive, 3.5" floppy drive, 2 MB PCI video, trackball mouse, and keyboard. Minimum Personal Computer Requirements PC Hardware
Notes: the above requirements are for computers not supplied by High End Systems. While most computers that meet the Status Cue specification probably will work, only systems purchased from High End Systems are fully supported. Due to the differences between components, High End Systems Inc. accepts no liability for computers that do not perform as expected. Windows®is a trademark of Microsoft Corporation |
