Setting initial value in Ultrix Timers

Hello,

We’re setting up a new workflow on a producton and would like to automate part of it. This involves passing the initial value of a countdown timer from our control system Cerebrum into an Ultrix countdown timer value. Cerebrum can send RossTalk commands to Ultrix so I can Start, Stop, End Pause the timer - but is there a way to set the value of a timer? Any pointers appreciated.

Hi Duncan,

Thanks for your question. Unortunately the timers cannot be ste via an external commad from Rosstalk. Currently the only way to set the durration of a timer is through the Ultrix clocks interface in dashboard.

I’ve added this as a feature request to the R+D team for consideration.

Thanks for the reply Mike - it would be a very useful feature addition.
