  • 1.  Vision Switcher Custom Serial Device and Custom Control

    I would like to send simple raw hex to a RS232 serial 9-pin device plugged into REMOTE8.

    I have a hex string and I've programmed Custom_Device_Command(1) CUSTOM1 [PLAY] with the follow hex bytes:

    [I]63 31 0d 0a 31 35 30 77 0d 0a 63 32 0d 0a 30 77 0d 0a 63 33 0d 0a 30 77[/I].

    Should I use the [PLAY] command tag or something else?

    I tried to create a custom device in Com_Setup but seemed to be missing CUSTOM1 as an option. Do I need to create a VTR device to use the [PLAY] command tag even though the device is not a VTR?

    Also, what the easiest Custom_Control to fire off the hex command?

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Hi Byron,

    Yes you have to use the "VTR" class to be able to select the Custom Devices. So now when you build the custom control since you made the "PLAY" command that message you would insert the VTR Play event for that source into the custom control.
