The sending device needs to start the command with /eos/sc/ in order for the console
to listen to it. For example, type Hello in the Input String field. On your OSC sending
device, have it send /eos/sc/Hello.
UDP
Type in the string you want the console to listen for.
The sending device needs to add “SC” (case-sensitive) to the beginning of the string
in order for it to be correctly processed.
The string needs to be terminated with a carriage return (hex 0D), \r, or #. For
example, type Hello in the Input String field. On your UDP sending device, have it
send SC Hello#
To set the submaster fader percentage using UDP, you need to include a number (0-
100) after the string. For example, blue 50#.
Then add the action to execute. Actions can be a cue, submaster, or a macro.
{Action} {Cue} [1] [Enter]
Sending Serial Commands – RS232, UDP, and ACN Strings
Eos Family consoles have the ability to send strings, which can be used to send commands to other
devices, such as Paradigm®, Crestron®, and media servers. The ability to send and receive strings
can be done via RS232 ports (via a Net3 I/O Gateway), network UDP messages, and ACN String EPI.
Please see Show ControlSettings (on page495)for more setup information.
Note: The console can be configured to send either ACN strings or UDP strings, as they
share the String Tx IP Address field. A combination of device names for ACN and IP
addresses for UDP is not supported. Combinations of I/O Gateways and either UDP or ACN
Strings are allowed.
Note: If you are trying to control Paradigm via UDP, ACN Strings, or RS-232, please ref-
erence the Paradigm Serial Access Protocol document for additional information.
Sending Strings
There are three ways that your console can send strings: from cues, macros, or user events. String
TX must be set to Enabled in Setup for any strings to be sent.
Termination Characters
All strings sent from Eos Family devices will be appended with a carriage return (CR, 0x0D, or 13).
MIDI String messages will be appended with a line feed and carriage return (LF CR, 0x0A 0x0D, or 10
13).
Sending from Cues
Cues can be assigned specific user-defined strings to send. When the cue is executed, the string will
be sent to all enabled string interfaces. To assign the string, select the cue and press the {Execute}
