ORB Operating Manual – Issue 1.0
The various options are described below:
•
Move on Dark
- When this function is enabled for the cue stack
– whenever a fixture goes black (ie it’s intensity falls to zero, or
the shutter is closed), the desk software will look ahead in the
cue stack to see what values the colour, beamshape and
position parameters are next programmed at for that fixture.
It will then output those values shortly after the fixture has gone
black (according to the delay and fade times set in the window).
When the fixture comes back on again in a later cue, the colour,
gobo, position etc. will already be at their correct values and
just the intensity will fade up or the shutter open.
•
Delay Time
– The time the ORB waits after a fixture reaches
blackout before move on dark kicks in.
•
Fade Time
– The time with which ORB fades the attributes that
move on dark.
