Hello, I am getting to be an older lighting guy trying to keep up with all the modern day wonders in our industry. I have some experience with the Ion. In several months I will be designing a show in a large "theater in the round" facility. The system is quite large 400 plus dimmers, 8-VL 3000s, lots of scrollers, LEDs, et..... The theater operates with a strictly maintained repertory plot. Designers can add to the rep plot but are strongly discouraged if they wish to re task any rep fixture. Their ion is beautifully set-up for the rig. I have a very short amount of time for programming once I am in the space.
THE QUESTION: Is it possible to retrieve the Theater's rep plot from their ion and cue the show offline on a laptop. Like the old express software. Once the show is cued I can load my show built from their original rep plot program. Now I can make simple adjustments rather than building a show from scratch. Thank you in advance for any help.
