Event List - Introduction
An Event is a combination of a Trigger and an Action Macro. An Action Macro can be defined also
directly in the step of a Sequence.
Action Macro
An Action Macro consists of a string of characters forming a line of commands. These commands can
be used to trigger internal actions (Go, Pause etc) or external devices (DVD players, computers etc)
with serial & MIDI commands
Trigger
A Trigger is used only to trigger an Action Macro. This can be done from the local Com or MIDI
ports, Closure or through a Net3 node.
Event
An Event is created when a Trigger is combined with an Action Macro.
NOTE
The COM port of Cobalt has to be activated to receive Triggers. See System
Settings - Com Port.
