Clone Command

Table of contents of this topic

This page describes the syntax and how to use the Clone command.

To go to the Clone command press and hold the ma key and Copy on the console.
Clone is in the command line now.

Description

With the Clone command, you copy all values from a fixture to another fixture throughout the entire show file.
This includes cues, presets, and groups. The clone command works like a batch processing for the At command along with Update command.

Syntax

Clone fixture 1 at fixture 2.

Clone Fixture 1 At 2

Example 1

Let´s assume, you did programming for 2 fixtures (ID 1 and 2) and then you realize you will add three more fixtures at this spot doing the same as the other one.

Figure 1: Fixture 1 and 2 are programmed ready

Press ma + Copy (= Clone) Fixture 1 + 2 At 3 Thru 5 Please.

The console will ask you to choose the clone method.

Fixtures 1 and 2 are cloned at fixture 3 thru 5. All fixtures doing exactly the same.

Figure 2: Fixture 1 and 2 are cloned at fixture 3 thru 5

Example 2

Let´s assume, you will clone the fixtures (ID 31 and 32) only on executor 1, because you need one more fixtures for the actors light.

The If command limited the Clone command, that the cloning work only for the executor 1.

Press ma + Copy (= Clone) Fixture 31 + 32 At 33 Thru 35 If and the respective executor button go  Please.

The console will ask you to choose the clone method.

Fixtures 31 and 32 are cloned at fixture 33 thru 35, only on executor 1.
