Time Macro on HogPC

[DRG]

We have Santa coming at 9am on the 25th.

I'm not 8 anymore so I don't want to have to get up at this time to put a wash up.

Is it possible to create a time macro that will do this for me on HogPC?

If so, what is the syntax?

Or would it be easier to just use a really long wait time on a cue?

[setup] - {Input Panel} - {24 Hr Clock}.

 

To execute an event at a specific time every day, enter it as a new macro in the Daily Triggeres list using the same syntax as you'd use for putting comment macros into a cue list. For example, if you simply want to fire the cue list that's sitting on master 1 at 9am, you'd need to highlight the <new> box under Daily Triggers, hit [set], then type "09:00>G1" and hit [Enter].

Yes you can do the easy peasy...

 

unfortunately you will have to do it as a daily function so will have to set and test it on the 24th.

 

Set the cue you want onto fader 1 for ease

 

Setup>Input panel>24hr clock(top bar)

 

In Daily triggers, set, "09:00 >g1" where xx:xx is time and >g1 is a normal comment macro to trigger a cue list

 

To fade lights when show over again in daily triggers 'xx:xx >r1'

 

MAKE SURE YOUR COMPUTER CLOCK IS CORRECT!

 

This will work on HogPC, Hog 500/1000 and Hog Playback unit but not Hog 2 if I remember correctly.

And then hope no one turns the kit off, Santa turns up on time and not after the house lights have gone up.........
