Sending timer panel info to RossTalk for use in Ultriscape

  • 1.  Sending timer panel info to RossTalk for use in Ultriscape

    Posted 8 hours ago

    I have a countdown timer .grid sorted in DashBoard and I want to take the timer result (coountdown clock) and send it on a RossTalk channel so I can make a Display clock listening to that channel.

    The clock takes the current time and allows the user to set their out time giving the result as a count-down to the target time from whenever "now" is.

    Here's an image of the target time being set on the clock. The pane I want to transmit to a RossTalk channel shows the orange numbers.

    Setting target time in break counter

    Is it possible to insert a task in the attached code so the counting-down numbers are sent to a Rosstalk channel?

    I was thinking along the lines of <task tasktype="rosstalk">rosstalk.sendMessage('Servername', port number, 

    Then I get stuck as to which bit to include and where I would add it in the code attached.to take the result in the panel and send it out on a chosen RossTalk channel.

    I would appreciate a steer on that,

    Thanks
