If an escape character is embedded in the string (in any position), then the default termination
is not applied.
•
[Cue] [1] {Execute} {Strings} “macro on” – sends “macro on” with the default CR LF
termination
•
[Cue] [1] {Execute} {Strings} “macro on\x0A” – sends “macro on” with a line feed (LF)
termination
•
[Cue] [1] {Execute} {Strings} “macro\x0Don” – sends “macro <CR> on” with a carriage
return in the middle and no termination

Sending from Cues
Cues can be assigned specific user-defined strings to send. When the cue is executed, the
string will be sent to all enabled string interfaces. To assign the string, select the cue and press
the {Execute} softkey. A {String} softkey will be displayed. When {String} is pressed, the
alphanumeric keyboard will display. Enter the desired string, press [Enter] and text entered will
be displayed in the external links field of the playback status display.
If there is already a string linked to the selected cue, the string will be displayed for editing.
When [Cue] [n] {Execute} {String} is on the command line, pressing [Next] / [Last] will step
through all the strings used in that show file. You can then modify the displayed string to
simplify the process of entering similar strings.
