# Show checklist

Before, during, and after a show, for an installation whose sensors and saved setup have not changed since the last run.

Use this for an installation whose sensors and saved setup have not changed. If a sensor moved or surfaces look doubled, repeat [Calibration](/movin-tracin-stage/setup/calibration.md). For a first installation, start with [What you need](/movin-tracin-stage/install-the-hardware/whats-included.md).

## Before the show

1. Connect the monitor, keyboard, and mouse to the server, then power on. Check that the workspace opens automatically.
2. Check that **Sensors** in the top bar shows every installed sensor and **Calibration** shows **Complete**.
3. Open **Settings** and wait for the preview. Nothing is broadcasting yet.
4. Check the capture zones against the performance area. If the set or orientation changed, clear the stage and learn the background again.
5. Open the receiving project, check its OSC IP and port, then select **Test connection** and verify that `/movin/test` arrives.
6. Select **GO LIVE** in the top bar, wait for **READY**, then confirm **GO LIVE** in the panel.
7. Have a person walk and raise an arm; verify position, direction, and movement in the receiving view.

See [OSC output](/movin-tracin-stage/setup/live-settings.md#osc-output) in Stage 2 for the reception check.

## During the show

* Monitor **LIVE**, Sensors, People, OSC, and the receiving application together.
* If a sensor drops out, check power and cabling. If it cannot be brought back right now, **Acknowledge** quiets the alert.
* **Restart** briefly interrupts processing and output. Plan a break if you need to apply a changed person limit or **Mocap backend**.

## End the show

1. If recording, select **Recording → Stop** to finish the recording.
2. Select **END LIVE** and confirm. Broadcasting stops; preview continues.
3. When finished, select **Stop pipeline**. This does not turn off the server.
4. For packing, follow [Shut down and pack away](/movin-tracin-stage/running-a-show/running-a-show.md#shut-down-and-pack-away): use **Shutdown** and wait for power-off before disconnecting.

See [Stage 3 · Live](/movin-tracin-stage/running-a-show/running-a-show.md) for operating and diagnostic recording details.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.movin3d.com/movin-tracin-stage/reference/quick-reference.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
