help with an avab console

Hi all

 

I know this is in the wrong forum but there was no where else to put it as far as I could see.....

 

 

I am trying to program a simple effect or a loop cue sequence on an ETC/AVAB Presto. It is proving a tad interesting and frustrating. I have a very simple show with 5no cues running 5no. Leds pars. Each cue is running a simple colour change etc. 

For the purposes of the gallery launch, I wish to loop the cues i.e. when Cue 5 finishes, Cue 1 starts the sequence off again till the end of the night. I cannot seem to loop the cues even though I have set links to them all....!!!

I have tried a second method and created an effect but for the love of god, cannot get the effect to load on to a master page/button in order to run it. I am following the manual but it does not compute....

 

The patience is wearing a tad thin hence my query in the wrong forum. 

 

I would be grateful if there were any knowledgable users who could point me in the right direction. I have the manual but some of it is as clear as mud......

 

many thanks

In hindsight, I should have put this in the congo forum. mods feel free to move and if you know where I am going wrong, please tell me!

  • Hi all

     

    Crisis averted and defcon 5 has been achieved.

     

    I have managed to get the Effect running on a master and am happy with the look. Think of the scene where Homer manages to prevent nuclear melt down in shelbyville by going "eenie meany, miney moh..."

    Yes, I have no idea how I managed it.

     

    many thanks.

  • Hi Eamon.  Well, I'm glad you sorted this out.  But have asked Anders - who is our lead Congo developer and also developed the Avab products back in the day - to provide you with an explanation of what you were seeing, how your might have gotten there, etc.

    We don't have forums for the pre-ETC Avab products.  But if you post any issues you have either here or on the Congo forum, we will do our absolute best to help out.

    Thanks so much!
