The examples and screen shots in this section of the manual use a variety of combinations of settings in order to give a sense of the possible layouts. The controls in the Settings tab very depending upon two factors: the selected network patch, and whether or not the cue has a duration. When a Network cue is selected, the inspector shows the Basics tab and Triggers tab, used by all cues, as well as a Settings tab. Network cues require a license of any type. This makes it easy to work with a device without having to constantly be referring to the device’s manual to look up specific commands or syntax. 1 When a network patch is configured to use one of these network device descriptions, the inspector shows a series of menus and controls specific to that description. These network device descriptions include the full library of commands required to communicate with these devices or programs.
