RE: Ultrix Acuity Connected to Xpression

Found In Egroup: Production Switchers \ view thread
the "CG" device type is meant for using the CII Gateway and is more for use with mos graphics where you want to control it via overdrive prior to caprica. Generally with XPression we use the RossTalk interface and you build the Custom Controls you need to control the Sequencer and take items you want ...

RE: Dashboard - display status of GPO that has been configured for TALLY behavior

Found In Egroup: Production Switchers \ view thread
Set the GPO up as a Tally Mode Operation Then use an "Aux Bus" that you are not actually using as a "source" on another Aux Bus that you are not using. So lets say Aux 28 will be the fake output. You set that up as "always on air" in the on air menu. Then in the inputs you go to internal and attach ...

Hi Rory, You might want to try to do an upgrade on the switcher and if that is not working for for a full recovery of the panel (that will require making a bootable USB and accessing the Bios to boot from that and recover the full install) https://rossvideo.community/viewdocument/touchdrive-v331-software-download ...

That is an issue with Companion in that it will take control of the port and "lock it up" you would be best to setup a second GPI/RossTalk board in XPression with a different port to use for Companion / Switcher etc. I can't remember if companion will allow you to change the port it uses to something ...

When Brian Ford wrote the Memory Attributes for Vision he mentioned "we should have added a way to have Recall Overrides.." so when we were doing it for Carbonite I thought "what would Brian want to improve it..."..

It is not possible for the Custom Control to send those events. Those kinds of events are contained inside the panel and are not messages that are available in side of the custom control to be sent to the panel.

Yes what that event is doing is sending a command to the device ... it is NOT triggering a Custom Control ON your switcher. So you would use like you suggest a GPI number that is going to trigger the button on the Dashboard panel you are using as a protocol converter. RossTalk is just a TEXT String ...

you won't be able to make it look exactly like a button (well I guess you could put an image behind it..) Change the widget hint to a Label. Then you can Apply Changes to see it change. now go to Style tab and you can manipulate the label to get it pretty close to what a "button" looks like. ...
