304 Eos Operations Manual
Serial (RS-232)
The serial interface allows RS-232 commands to be sent to Eos through the I/O gateways.
Enabling Serial
Receiving serial commands can be enabled in Setup, see Show Control, page 96. Serial is enabled
by default. You will also need to tell the console which serial group(s) that it will be listening to.
Serial Commands
All text will be stored until a carriage return, a “\r” or “#”, is encountered to show the end of the
command. The carriage return will act as the [Enter] key for the command line. If the text begins
with a “$”, the text that follows until the carriage return will be sent to the command line for user 0
and processed as if that user had typed it. For example:
• $ Chan 1 Thru 10 At Full /r – sets channels 1 through 10 to full manually.
All other text that doesn’t start with a “$” will be sent to the Eos event handler. Here are a few
examples:
• Go 1 – fires playback 1
• Cue 1 2 – run cue 2 from list 1, on the appropriate fader
• Cue 1 – fire pending cue from list 2
• GoCue0 1 – clear playback 1 (fires cue 0)
• Release 1– release playback 1
• Off 1 – turn playback 1 off
• Resume 1 – resume playback 1
• Assert 1 – assert playback 1
• Stop 1 – stop playback 1
• Stop Cue 1 2 – stop cue 2 from list 1 if it is running
• Stop – stops all
• Resume Cue 1 2 –resume cue 2 from list 1 if it is stopped
• Resume – resumes all
• SubAssert 1 – assert submaster 1
• SubUnload 1– unload sub 1
• SubDown 5 - presses sub 5’s bump button down
• SubUp 5 – releases sub 5’s bump button
• SubMove 1 50 - sets sub 1 to 50
• PlaybackMove 1 50 - sets playback 1 to 50 percent
• Grandmaster 1 100 - set Grandmaster 1 to full (there’s currently only 1 Grandmaster)
• Macro 1 - fires Macro 1
Note:
Text requires a carriage return to terminate the command line.
