There is an Enable Timecode button in the Cuelist window, so you can
easily enable and disable timecode during programming and playback
without having to open the Playback Options window each time.

: open the Cuelist window.
2.
Select the
Wait
cell for the cue, and press

3.
From the toolbar, select
Timecode

4.
Enter a timecode value in hours, minutes, seconds and frames, in the form
hh/mm/ss.ff
, then press
Enter
.
As well as entering timecode values manually, you can use Hog 4OS's learn timing function to
quickly associate timecode values with cues; see Learn Timing (p.213).

By default, cuelists will follow the incoming timecode, even if the timecode skips forwards or
backwards; generally, this is a useful behaviour as, for example, you might ‘rewind’ the timecode
during rehearsals to repeat a part of the show, and the cuelist will automatically go to the correct
cue. Sometimes you may want to prevent a cuelist going backwards if the timecode goes back-
wards. You can do this using Trigger Forwards Only:

You may need to change the timecode value for one cue, and then change the timecode values
for subsequent cues by the same amount, to keep the same relative timings. For example, you
might have a series of cues where each one is triggered by timecode one second after the previous
one. If the timecode value triggering the first cue needs to be increased by 12 frames, you may
want the values for all the subsequent cues to also be increased by 12 frames to maintain the 1
second separation. Hog 4OS allows you to do this easily:
