Cue Wait problem

I have a cue with Time=0 (bump) that takes out some lights. It is followed by a cue with a Wait=0 so it should follow immediately. This cue brings up the same lights to a new value in Time=3. I want them to bump out and fade back up.

What happens is they never bump out. If I change the Wait to 0.1 sec, then it works ok.

  • I think we are talking about two different things....

    Perhaps we are. I'm thinking about the "follow-on" or "follow" time on p.217 and p.228 of the manual.

    The follow time should not be confused with the wait time. The follow time controls the time between the end of one cue and the triggering of the next, while the wait time controls the time between the triggering of one cue and the triggering of the next.

    It sounded to me like the difference between follow and wait (on those same two pages) is whether you want the time relative to the start of the cue or the end of the cue.

    [quote=Marty Postma]there is no such thing as a "Follow" time on H3....unless you are talking about Delay perhaps:dunno: I'm confused by this. I refer to the time above as a "follow time." Perhaps I should be calling it a different name? I know different manufacturers use the same word (from a selection of wait, follow, delay, etc.) to mean exactly the opposite thing from one another. I'm trying to use the Hog terminology for this.
