CHAPTER 3
USB MODE
Overview
This chapter details how to download shows, triggers, and
alarms directly from ColorPlay 3 to the iPlayer 3 using USB
Mode.
About Shows
The iPlayer 3 handles two types of shows: onboard, pre-
configured shows and downloaded shows.
Shows authored on ColorPlay 3 contain data about fixtures,
settings such as groups, and effects. After you author shows on
ColorPlay 3, you download your show files to the iPlayer 3 and
then configure your show playback instructions by creating
triggers and alarms.
About Triggers and Alarms
Using ColorPlay 3, you assign trigger numbers to show files.
Using the iPlayer 3, you can use alarms to activate a trigger at a
particular time (such as every Monday at 5:00:00 p.m.) or for an
astronomical event (such as every day at sunset).
Alarms enable you to set triggers for automatic playback. See
Alarm Playback on page 24, Switching Shows Without Using the
Preset Buttons or Controller Keypad on page 24, and Setting an
Alarm on page 32.
