146 Ion Classic User Manual
As you specify components, they are added to a table in the CIA. In the table, fields with a
dark background may be edited, fields with a light gray background do not apply to that
component. For each component in the list, you can specify the desired range by pressing the
proper area in the table and entering numbers from the keypad. The columns in the table are:
•
List - The list you are taking data from (such as a cue list).
•
List Target - The list you are adding the data to.
•
Start - The first in a range of components (such as a range of cues).
•
End - The last in a range of components.
•
Target - The desired location of the components in the new show file (for ranges, this
will be the location in the new show of the first component in the range, the others will
follow in order).
Note:
In the {Advanced} view, you can use the [Thru] key to jump to the End column
and [At] to jump to the Target column.
To merge channels, see Partial Show File Channel Merge (on the facing page)
To merge only partial components:
1. From the browser, navigate to the desired show file (see Open an Existing Show File (on
page 142) ).
2. When the merge show load screen appears, press the {Advanced} button. The partial
components selection screen will appear in the CIA.
3. Select the show components that you wish to merge by pressing on their respective
buttons on the left side of the CIA. The components will appear in the list to the right as
you select them.
4. Press any fields for which you want to enter specific numbers. The field (if editable) will
highlight in gold.

on.

Partial Patch Merging
You have the option to selectively merge partial patch information or fixtures into a show file
by selecting the {Advanced} button in the partial show merge screen. Select {Patch} or
{Fixtures}.
You can specify the desired range by selecting the proper area in the table and entering
numbers from the keypad. The columns in the table that relate to patch are:
•
Start - The first in a range of components.
•
End - The last in a range of components.
•
Target - The desired location of the components in the new show file (for ranges, this
will be the location in the new show of the first component in the range, the others will
follow in order).
Checking the "Only Merge Augment3d XYZ Location" box will merge only the Augment3d
position information of the selected range without merging any additional patch data.
