Real-time events

Is there a way to program the Eos to execute a cue at a particular time of day?  For example, I would like to program my console to automatically take cue 0.5 (preset) at 7:25p prior to the house opening.

The sound guy (using SFX) programs his rig to automatically roll preshow music at 7:30p.  The best work around that we've come up with is for him to send me MIDI command at 7:25p to cue the lights.

  • I think you can run the internal SMPTE clock (based on a normal 24 hour clock) then have the event trigger when that time comes. Probably won't work so well if you are running SMPTE from an external source though.

  • Eos will do real time events.

     

    Use the browser to navigate:

    Record Targets -> Show Control Display 

    Once in the show control display screen create a new event list by typing [1] [Enter] 

    The command line should read "Event 1"

    Select the softkey "Type"

    Then select the softkey "RTC"  (Real Time Clock)  [Enter]

    Select the softkey "internal" and press [Enter]

    This will have created an event list 1 which is a real time event list that will listen to the internal clock.

    You can now define what events you wish to happen and at what time and on what day for this list.

    The softkeys will provide the options.

     

    Events are defined as

    Event 1/1 = event list one / event one

    Event 1/2 = event list one / event two and so on. 

     

    NOTE:  if you setup Latitude and Longitude in the shell you can do sunrise and sunset based events as well.
