Running a Macro Automatically
You can start macros with cues by assigning the macro to a cue. To learn how to assign macros to
cues, refer to Assigning a Macro.
You can control macros with submasters by assigning the macro to a submaster. Moving the
submaster away from zero starts the macro. To learn how to assign macros to submasters, turn to
Assigning Effects and Macros.
A macro can be configured to run automatically at power up. To learn how to run a macro at power up,
refer to Power Up Macro in the Show Setup Screen. A macro can be run at a certain time of days.
There can be up to 4 At Time macros, which are configured in the At Time Macros Window of the
Show Setup Screen.
When a macro runs automatically, it uses a command line as determined by Cue Sheet Macros in the
Show Setup Screen. MAIN CONSOLE runs it on the main console command line, to allow screen
editing operations. LAST HANDHELD runs it on the last available handheld command line, when
console command lines and displays must not be changed.
