ASCII Cues Implementation
Overview
Following are the rules for editing ASCII Cues as implemented on the IF501, software revision 1.00:
If you use a word processor for editing ASCII Cues you must set WORD WRAP OFF and the margin should
be set to 80 characters per line. DO NOT use any ‘‘special’’ features; such as BOLD or UNDERLINING.
Format
Each line of an ASCII Cues file must begin with a keyword. Keywords may be up to eight characters and may
only consist of letters A - Z, numbers, or the ‘‘$’’ character.
Keywords cannot be shortened, but any number of spaces or tabs may be inserted before the keyword.
The maximum length of each line is 80 characters (including spaces).
Each line must be terminated with a CR or CR/LF (carriage return/line feed or ‘‘hard return’’).
The file may be as big as the word processor or editor may allow.
The file should end with a $END keyword to make sure the IF501 records the last cue received.
Keywords Supported.
CUE
This keyword must start the description of each cue. This keyword is followed by a space and then the cue
number in the range of ‘‘.1" to ’’999.9". The decimal point is not necessary if no decimal is specified.
Note: The Cue number is meaningless to the IF501 since it always executes cues in sequence received.
EXAMPLE: CUE 238.5
UP
This keyword specifies the fade up time of the new cue. This keyword must be followed by a space and the time
in the range of ‘‘0" to ’’9:59.9". Minutes are optional but must be followed by a colon. In the absence of minutes,
seconds may be specified up to ‘‘999.9". The decimal point is not necessary if no decimal is specified. If the
UP keyword is not specified in a cue definition then either ’’0" or the UP value of the previous cue will be used.
EXAMPLE: UP 10.5
