Facility Control

I have set up Dashboard to send IR commands to a Set Top Box with rosstalk.sendMessage().  I want to program it to change the channel by sending a series of 4 commands. However it is only picking up one or two of the commands.  It looks like a need to set a delay between each.  Is there a way to do this without using an async function?  I have tried implementing a pause command similar to below but that did not work.

rosstalk.sendMessage(command for 1);

return 500;

rosstalk.sendMessage(command for 6);

return 500;

rosstalk.sendMessage(command for 0);

return 500;

rosstalk.sendMessage(command for 7);

Just found it in another thread.

<task tasktype="pause">number of milliseconds to pause</task>

If you put your calls into a function and use ogscript.asyncExec, you can also just call ogscript.pause(number_of_milliseconds);

Using this, you would be able to make an arbitrary "send" function like this:

function sendCmd(cmd)
{
     ogscript.asyncExec(function ()
     {
         for (var i = 0; i < cmd.length; i++)
         {
              rosstalk.sendMessage(command for cmd[i]);
              ogscript.pause(500);
         }
      });
}

sendCmd([1,6,0,7]);
