exclusive shielded subs come up on start

The console powers up in the state it was powered down. So add a shutdown macro that puts the board into a known good state for those subs.

My venue does something similar to make sure our work lights stay on when the board powers up and takes control from the architectural system.

ok i tried a little bit with Nomad 2.5.09.0.63 on Mac, and i am a bit confused because i cannot say when the problem occurs.
What i do:
Go to Cue Out
Ch99 at Full Record Sub 99, make the sub shielded (and Record exclusive)
Option 1:
i save the showfile now (Sub 99 is on)
then Sub 99 at Out Enter
then EXIT
>> when the Console comes up, Sub is Full
Option 2:
Sub 99 at Out, then Save Showfile
Then Sub99 at Full, Sub 99 at Out Enter (as we would do it in the Show)
Dont save showfile (because its already saved in "Out" Status..)
EXIT
Console comes again up with Sub Full
it should not because the Sub was Out
But i did not load the Sub to the fader (its just virtual..)
tried it with a loaded sub, and its the same..
Unfortenately it functioned before in the supposed way, last state came up..
New try:
- it functioned when saving the showfile with sub out, and next time not, sub is again at full
maybe that is a problem of the mac because sometimes i got an fail when exit
but im not sure..
seems to be a problem of saving the last state..

Do you probably have a startup macro firing a snapshot?

Nope

ok, i had a look as well. i agree with Johannes that something is fishy. this is what happens (at least that's what it looks lie after three minutes of trying):
- if you leave your shielded sub at a value, it will stay there when loading a showfile.
- if you use Sub 1 Out Enter to home it (channel tombstones will be empty) and then load a showfile, the sub will go to the value it had before it was "outed".
- if you use Sub 1 Out Enter to home it (channel tombstones will be empty), exit to the shell and start the software again, the sub will go to the value it had before it was "outed".

ok, im happy not telling something wrong.
its the behaviour of Out/ or Home only for the virtual fader of the sub..
thanks Uli for testing it.. now we know how to get a workaround for the problem..
