An Instrument Schedule
for the Master Electrician
by David E. Patrick

JPCI:I(

JL!

The folIo wing program was submitted by Professor David Patrick of Western
Illinois University to demonstrate his solution to the problem of creating an instrument schedule for the master electrician. The program takes the information
collected from the light plot and produces a document familiar to most lighting
designers and technicians.
The program was written on a Franklin Ace-lOOO (64K) and is compatible to
the Apple II, II + *, and lie. It was written with his printer-a Prowriter-in
mind and he cautions that some of his printer commands may not be compatible
with other printers. (The program ran smoothly without any modification on an
IDS 560 printer.) "The program is written," he says, "to accommodate our
lighting inventolY of instruments, our most frequently used wattages and our
lighting positions in our mainstage theatre. These items might need to be adapted
for a particular theatre but this should not produce a great problem."
For any questions concerning this program contact David E. Patrick, Head of
Design, Theatre Dept., Western Illinois Univ., Macomb, IL 61455. -W.D.F.
