  • 1.  Multiple actions in one command RossTalk to Carbonite by companion stream deck

    Multiple actions in one command RossTalk Carbonite with companion

    Hello every one

    I'm using a stream deck with bit focus companion to send command to a Carbonite.

    It works well with good syntax.

    But if I want to send two actions in the same command: it's not working. Or I can't find the good syntax to do it.

    Exemple: i want to make an autotrans PP key 1 to on

    I write KEYAUTOON ME:0:1

    If I want to make autotrans KEY 1 and 2

    I made a second action in companion without delay .Carbonite only does the last action.

    If I put delay between every command it works. But without delay it's not working

    My question is :

    in only one command in companion, can I make a multiple actions? is there a specific syntax to separate commands?

    Another way is to use a Custom Control, it works but in my case, I have many possibilities, so I want to find a way by companion.

    Any ideas ???

    Tanks for your feedback.

    Guillaume

    You can not pass multiple events all at once in one command.  It will only parse the one event.

    In my experience, it's not possible to fire multiple custom controls from Companion simultaneously without a 10 frame delay between commands.

    As@Les O'Reilly posted, you need to put delays in between the multiple events.

    however you can also trigger a custom control from Bitfocus. you can put your commands in a single custom on the carbonite. (Just remember this command needs to exist in each set you wish to use it for)

    Happy programming,

    Thanks for yours multiple answers. 

    The best way is to use a custom control.

    I choose this solution.

    Kind regards
