The macromanager syntax for recalling a cue in a timeline is as follows:

HippoNet.LocalHost.TimelinePlus.Timelines[‘New Timeline’]:GoCue(2,“Play”)

‘New Timeline’ can be substituted with the name of any timeline and acts as the timeline selector.

The ‘GoCue(2,“Play”)’ command will set the playhead to the position of the chosen cue and then set the playmode, in this case jumping to cue 2 and playing the timeline.

For more information on creating cues in the command track refer here.
