Managing Show Files 145
Show File Advisory
If the loaded show file exceeds the console’s output capacity, an advisory will display in the
CIA. You will need to dismiss the advisory by pressing {Ok} before continuing. To see the
capacity of the console, press [About].
Park Buffer
The contents of the Park buffer are saved with show files. By default, the park buffer will not
open with a show file.
You can load the park buffer, but it requires an additional step of confirming that you want to
open the park buffer. You will need to click or press the check box by the text Yes, Include the
Park Buffer.

Merging Show Files
All Eos family consoles support the merging of other Eos family show files.
Note:
Merging show files is different from opening show files. When you do a
partial open of show components, untouched record targets are cleared. When you
do a merge, those record targets remain.
You have the option of merging show files from the Show File Archive, a File Server (if
connected), or a USB device.
To merge a show file, navigate within the Browser to: File > Merge. Navigate to the desired
storage location and press [Select]. When using merge, Eos displays only the available files.
Navigate to the specific file and press [Select].
This will open the merge screen in the CIA. From this screen you can choose which aspects of
the show file you want to merge. By default all aspects are unselected (black). Selected show
aspects will appear in gray.
Note:
Media is imported gobo and magic sheet images, and will be included by
default when you select Patch, Fixtures, or Magic Sheets.
If you select the {Advanced} button in the merge show loading screen, you will have the
opportunity to load partial components from the show file and be able to specify the desired
location of those partial components in the current show file.
For example, you could specify only cues 5-10 and load them as cues 20-25 in the current
show. You could also specify only specific palettes, presets, effects, and so on. To see the
complete list of show components, press the {Advanced} key in the merge show loading
screen.
