dot2 supports 7 different command types:
01 (Go):
This is the same as a Goto command in dot2. It needs to be followed by a cue number.
02 (Stop):
This is the same as a Pause command in dot2. This can be followed by a cue number.
03 (Resume):
This will "un-plause" a cue. If a specific cue has been paused, then the cue number needs to be specified with
this command.
04 (Timed_Go):
This can be used to perform a Goto with a specific fade time. It needs both the time and the cue number - in
that order.
06 (Set):
Set can be used to set the position of faders. It needs the fader number and page followed by the position.
07 (Fire):
This can be used to trigger macros. The macro number needs to follow the command. Only macro 1 to 255
can be triggered.
0B (Go_Off):
This command can be used "Off" executors. This needs to followed by a cue number.
Data
01 (Go):
As stated above: This is interpreted as a GOTO command. A cue number needs to be specified. The cue number
also needs to be transmitted in hex octets and the complete cue number including the decimals needs to be
transmitted. If cue number 4 is to be triggered then the complete number is 4.000 - the number with all decimal
numbers separated by a dot (Hex value 2E). Decimal numbers in hex is some of the easiest to convert. It needs a
"3" in front. This means that decimal 4 becomes 34 in hex. The complete cue number including the dot is then:
34 2E 30 30 30.
If the station is set to Default Only in the Send MSC In Exec option, then this all that needs to be added after the
command.
Example: Triggering cue number 21.5 on the default executor (All Devices, All Format, and Default Only setting):
F0 7F Device ID 02 Command Format Command Data F7
F0 7F 7F 02 7F 01 32 31 2E 35 30 30 F7
If the setting is not Default Only, then an executor and page needs to be specified. There are two options for
separating the executor number and the page number. It can be separated by a dot (hex = 2E) or by a space (hex
= 20). The cue number and the executor/page data needs to be separated by a hex value 00.
