# FX Movements

FX Movements allow you to control digital outputs on a Stagehand FX through programmed cues.

The FX Movement Editor displays a list of your digital outputs.

* Select which output to change by clicking its checkbox.
* Click either the On or Off checkbox to set the output state.

{% hint style="info" %}
When you run a cue with an FX Movement, the output state will latch until changed by another FX Movement.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Best practice: explicitly set all outputs (On or Off) in each FX Movement.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Engaging the E-Stop turns off all FX Outputs.
{% endhint %}

Changes to the movement don't take effect until you click the "Save Changes" button. If you don't want to update the movement you can click the "Discard Changes" button or press the esc key on the keyboard.
