Automation
PRE-SHOW CHECKS:
1 Up in the Stage Right fly floor ensure the Illusionist autmation desk is powered on both at the back right switch and the front left when the button lights up with a green rim. Also ensure the red e-stop button on the desk is pressed in for safety.
2 Once the desk is booted, click the mousepad on the eChameleon icon and wait for the "Log-In" boxes to appear, it will read USER: STUDENT, Then in the boxes below wil read PIN: (which you type **** as the Personal Identification Number) Then in the boxes below again reads SHOW: (3) THE HYPOCHONDRIAK. And the last box reads, ROLE: (1) DEFAULT ROLE.
3 Type in the PIN **** then point the mouse cursor and click 'Login', it will read Loading...Please Wait.
4 Remember to deactivate the E-Stop prior to operation.The main screen will open with 2 double grid boxes representing the 4 Axes used in the 2 groups for flyng in and out the back wall of the set and the truss for flying an actor in the finale scene. Type into the command line, Group 1+2, then ENTER. Group 1 locks the Axes 1&2 for the Truss with the drifts to fly the actor and Group 2 locks Axes 3&4 for moving the back wall.
5 Type into the command line, Axis, 1, Query then ENTER to find out the High Soft Limit and Low Soft Limit of Axis 1 which has been pre-programmed for this particular show. Please check all 4 Axes correspond with the following readings:
Axis 1 HSL 1410mm LSL 0mm Axis 2 HSL 1410mm LSL 0mm Axis 3 HSL 7500mm LSL -10mm Axis 4 HSL 7500mm LSL -10mm
Axis 4 is a slave to Axis 3, as is A1 to A2 because of their gouping together.

9 STATE/CUE 10 is to fly out the back wall without flying in truss. This STATE/CUE will only be executed if the actor's harness has become loose and/or it is unsafe to fly him for any other reason whatsoever. So, in this case, notification will be given by the Deputy Stage Manager, prior to the Automation Cues 1 to 6, as to whether or not to fly the actor. If not, Standby to execute STATE/CUE 10.

A copy of this document can be located beside the automation desk on the Stage Right Fly Floor. ALWAYS CALL OUT TO LET OTHERS ON STAGE KNOW WHENEVER ANYTHING IS EITHER FLYING IN OR OUT FOR THEIR SAFETY.
