41.4.3 Connecting an Execute Wing
The Execute Wing has 48 playbacks arranged as 12 fader playbacks and 36 button only playbacks. The Execute Wing can be
configured simply to control Playbacks, or it can be set in a mode whereby the 36 button only playbacks become a 72 button
matrix for use selecting heads, palettes, groups, media and execute buttons.
To configure the MagicQ Execute Wing it must be set up as two consecutive wings in Setup, View System, View Wings. The
first wing must be configured as “Execute” and the second wing as “Execute Top”. This corresponds to the 48 playbacks whereas
with standard Playback Wings there are only 24 playbacks.
The Execute Wing has a mode button called MENU. When this is pressed and held then the 2
nd
row of buttons becomes a mode
selection page. The mode button affects the top 3 rows of playbacks – it does not affect the bottom row of 12 playbacks – they
are always configured as normal Playbacks.
The mode options are:
Playbacks 3 rows of 12 playbacks each with separate GO/PAUSE
(default)
Exec Access to the Execute Window, enabling complete user
configuration of the buttons. Use PG UP and PG DN to
select the Exec Page.
Heads Selecting heads. Use PG UP / PG DN to scroll pages of
heads.
Palet The buttons are automatically split into 24 Groups, 16
position palettes, 16 colour palettes and 16 beam palettes.
Media Access to the Media Window. Shows media page options,
servers, layers and images as in the Media Window. Use
the 2
nd
down PG UP/PG DN buttons to change the Media
Bank. Use the 3
rd
down PG UP/PG DN buttons to change
the Media Image.
Cues Testing of Cues. Use PG UP / PG DN to scroll pages of
cues.
Cue Stack Testing of Cue Stacks. Use PG UP / PG DN to scroll pages
of Cue Stacks.
DMX Test Tests individual DMX channels. Use PG UP / PG DN to
scroll pages of channels.
Head Test Tests (locates) individual heads. Use PG UP / PG DN to
scroll pages of heads.
When selecting the mode, you can choose to press the SELECT button or the FLASH button associated with the mode. In
some of the modes this will alter the behaviour. For example, in the Heads Test, DMX Test, Cues and Cues Stack modes, this
determines whether the test is latching or momentary.
In Playback mode the upper 3 rows of playbacks control playbacks in the usual way. Note that as they do not have a fader,
the value the attributes that would normally be controlled by the fader (generally Intensity values) will automatically default to
100%. The Playbacks can still have times in the normal way, so that Intensity values can be faded in and out.**
41.4.4 Using a MQ60/MQ70 as a network wing
MagicQ MQ60 and MQ70 consoles can now be used as network wings when connected to a PC or Mac running MagicQ thus
enabling a full 64 universe show to be run from the PC/Mac but with physical control from the MQ60/70. This overcomes the 12
universe limit on the MQ60/70.
Net wing mode is activated by connecting the MQ60/70 to the PC/Mac via network and then on the MQ60/70 going to Setup,
View System, View Monitors and pressing SHIFT and Remote Net Wing. The MQ60/70 will give a list of possible MagicQ
systems to connect to. This is similar to remote control, except that the DMX ports on the MQ60/70 automatically are set to
output the first four universes from the PC/Mac.
