Controlling nk router with custom panel

Automation & Control
1

Hi ,

I’m wondering if it’s possible to create a custom panel in which i could change the input and output of the router . We have a Carbonite extreme with 112 outputs and 56 inputs and I want to organize in a more friendly way than the nk switchboard by having tab for each section for the output ( monitor wall , audiobooth , engineer section ) and for the source ( camera , frame synch …etc ) . We also a AES ROUTER (D64 ) that i would also like to integrate in the same custom panel

Thank

Phil

Hi Philippe.

A CustomPanel can do anything Switchboard can do with the added ability to customize your user interface. This means that what you’re asking for should be possible.

As a demo, I have taken the “Switchboard (Large Router)” from DashBoard and customized the Destination and Source buttons into different tabs. If you use DashBoard 6.1, you should see the user interface for customizing which sources/destinations appear in which tabs.

You can download my example here

I know this is a “ye olde” comment, but I am now wanting to learn this part as well, and the example link about generates this message, “Time’s up! We’re sorry but the link to view this content has expired.” Can this be reposted or a more current solution provided?

We have needed during this COVID-19 time to reconfigure our router about three different ways each week for different recording and broadcasting requirements. Because there are several changes to make, it is easy to overlook or make mistakes. Setting up Preset Scripts for these where the router and outputs are easily and accurately changed would be a huge time saver and stress reliever. Not wanting to re-invent the wheel any more than we have to, any samples, suggestions or direction would be most welcome.

We are loving learning more and more every day about the power Dashboard brings to the entire system! Thanks!

Hi 372662323132

I believe this is the panel originally mentioned in the link.

#FF8888 #FFFF88 #88FF88 #88FFFF #8888FF #FF88FF #FFD075 #75EDFF = 0 && config != null) { for (var i = 0; i < config.getSettings().getNumIns(); i++) { var colorSet = false; var src = config.getIn(i); for (var levIndex = 0; levIndex < config.getSettings().getNumLevels(); levIndex++) { var levelNum = config.getSettings().getLevels().getValueForIndex(levIndex); if (nk.getLevelMask() == 0 || nk.isLevelActive(levelNum)) { var levelMask = 1 << levelNum; var srcActive = nk.isSrcActive(dst, src, levelMask); if (srcActive) { ogscript.setStyle('ActiveSRC' + src, 'bg#lev' + levelNum + ';fg#000000'); colorSet = true; break; } } }

if (!colorSet)
{
ogscript.setStyle(‘ActiveSRC’ + src, ‘bg#panelbg;fg#panelfg’);
}
}
}
if (config != null)
{
for (var levIndex = 0; levIndex < config.getSettings().getNumLevels(); levIndex++)
{
var levelNum = config.getSettings().getLevels().getValueForIndex(levIndex);
if (nk.isLevelActive(levelNum))
{
ogscript.setStyle(‘ActiveLevels’ + levelNum, ‘bg#lev’ + levelNum + ‘;fg#000000’);
}
else
{
ogscript.setStyle(‘ActiveLevels’ + levelNum, ‘bg#panelbg;fg#panelfg’);
}
}
}
