command in the macro will be sent to all enabled string interfaces when that macro is fired.
Sending From User Events
{String MIDI TX} is an option in [Setup]>{System}>{Show Control}. See
Show Control Settings
.
When {String MIDI TX} is enabled, MIDI Show Control messages will be sent as serial string
messages when certain actions happen at the console.
Those actions are:
A cue is fired.
Cue 1/2 is triggered. The console will send Cue 1 2.
A cue is stopped.
Cue 3/1 is stopped. The console will send Stop Cue 3 1.
A cue is resumed.
Cue 3/1 is resumed. The console will send Resume Cue 3 1.
A sub’s bump button is held down.
Sub 5’s bump button is pressed down. The console will send SubDown 5.
A sub’s bump button is released.
Sub 5’s bump button is pressed down. The console will send SubUp 5.
A macro is fired.
Macro 1 is fired. The console will send Macro 1.
Note: String MIDI Tx is restricted by {MIDI Cue List} in Setup. See Show Control
Settings .
Sending UDP Strings
UDP strings will be sent from the console on an ephemeral (always changing) port number to the
destination port specified in Setup. UDP strings sent to multicast IP addresses are not supported.
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.
Sending ACN Strings
To send ACN strings, {String TX} must be enabled in Setup>System>Show Control, and the ACN
component name must be set in the {String TX IP Address} field.
For example, the ACN component name could be Paradigm.
