What do you need to do in order to save the current input data as a cue? 
- Is this done via the 'grab DMX data' command in the layer menu.

It is probably also worth mentioning that you can only grab static DMX 
values, so you will have to capture each step of a chase and set this up 
separately in LC-Edit.  Also, all the fade times will need to be set up 
in LC-Edit - you can't transfer those from the desk (unless Fokko knows 
a clever way!).  The Lanbox can't record time-based information from 
running cues but can capture static DMX states.
