then use the blue Up/Down arrows under the timing options to locate the option you wish

To rearrange the order of cues, press the Edit button then touch the cue’s ‘triple bar’
icon. Drag and drop the cue to its new location. To copy a cue, press and hold the Shift
key prior to dragging it to the new location.
To delete a cue, press the Edit button. Touch the Delete icon on the left of the cue
name to choose it for deletion. A second delete icon will appear. Touch the second icon
to confirm you want the cue deleted or Cancel to back out. If multiple cues are chosen
to be deleted, pressing any one of the confirmation icons will delete all chosen cues.
Blind Editing of Cues
To make changes to a Cue while another Cue is live on-stage, select the desired Cue
location from the Playlist. The outline will turn red. Then touch the Blind icon.
The display will change to the SELECT task, with a blue background to indicate Blind
mode. The clock on the status bar changes to ‘Blind’, followed by the label of the item
being edited.
An icon in the upper right corner of each fixture cell indicates the light’s current
attributes. Choose the lights you wish to adjust and follow normal CONTROL methods to
adjust their attributes. Once the changes are completed, press the Record button to
accept the changes, or the Release button to abandon the changes and exit Blind.
Record Changes Only
To make changes to Cues in one Playlist while a different Playlist is active, it may be
necessary to change the record behavior of the console. Normally, Cognito acts as a
preset console, and records the entire current DMX output whenever a Cue is saved.
To track changes made to individual lights instead, press the Power Button, then select
Setup>System>Advanced and change “Record Changes Only” to ‘yes’.
Mixed
In Mixed Playback mode, the current playback status is shown for Memories and the left
and right Playbacks. Press the Edit button to allow drag-and-drop movement of
Memories between Memory pages, and cues between Playlists. Editing of timings is not
available in Mixed mode.
Schedule
Allows clock-based playback of Memories or Playlists. Two components make up event
scheduling: the timing of the event, and the action option.
To set up a scheduled event, from the PLAY>Schedule task, touch the “New Event”
icon. A New Event cell will appear on the left side of the display. Press the Edit button
to define or delete the event. A 'do-not-enter' icon will appear in the event cell, and the
options on the right side of the display will become active.
