12.4.1 Automation Cues
An Automation Cue is an action/demand that is sent from the IMS1000 to any external device
connected to the IMS1000 for the purpose of being inserted into a Show Playlist. Upon
installation of the IMS1000, Automation Cues can be predefined by the operator, transferred
from an XML file, or added manually. Automation Cues can be added to CPLs and SPLs using
CineLister.
12.5 Macro Automation Cues
A Macro Automation Cue consists of two parts, an Automation Cue and a Trigger Cue. Trigger
Cues are explained fully in the Section 12.6, Trigger Cues. A Trigger Cue is an action that is
sent
to
the IMS1000, whereas an Automation Cue is sent
from
the IMS1000. Also, Macro Cues
are a sequence of actions, whereas an Automation Cue is only one action.
