  • 1.  CC for KEY 1 and 2 auto transition

    Posted 01-23-2025 12:49

    Hey,

    I'm looking for some advice on a custom control to flip between Keyer 1 and Keyer 2.

    When Key 1 is on air key 2 is off, and when Key 2 is on air key 1 is off.  And if both keyers are off, they stay off.

    This custom also has to be one CC button to push, the idea is I can flip between Keyer 1 and 2 with the same button.

    Thoughts?

    Hi Rachel,

    Which switcher is this - Carbonite or Acuity?

    If it is Acuity, you can accomplish this with CC Logic. The Acuity will check if the keyers are on/off, and based on the keyers' state, it will perform the programmed actions.

    However, if it is Carbonite, there isn't an internal logic system like Acuity. But you can use DashBoard to run the logic. So when a CC button is pushed, the Carbonite will trigger a custom DashBoard panel to check its keyers' state, and DashBoard will tell the Carbonite to do the corresponding actions.
