Hi Claude !!!
I'm trying to send 2 OSC messages at the same time (or very slight delay) from the display window to make sure to get a total B.O. on stage. Independently, it works perfectly. In fact, what would be the right way to do so.
Once again, thank you very much.

Total Black out
Re: Total Black out
I would use the master:
with a argument of 0.0
This is going to black any and all intensity channels from cues or subs.
You want to consider how to get out of it. Simple restore (all at once) is:
with a argument of 1.0
If you want multiple things to happen, consider sending a message:
/my_special_message
Use the Setup window's OSC tab and add as many actions responding to my_special_message as you want.
All actions are executed simultaneously.
Note:
With Version 6.7.0 (20615.1) it is possible to send /cmd.lxconsole/master@0 and /cmd.lxconsole/master@100 so that an argument is not needed. Actions in the Setup window OSC Actions table can use the same ending format (@{level-percent}, rather than @%p).
For reference /cmd.lxconsole/qmaster@0 sets the cue master. /cmd.lxconsole/smaster@0 sets the subs master. And, /cmd.lxconsole/master@0 sets the overall master.
Code: Select all
/cmd.lxconsole/master@%pThis is going to black any and all intensity channels from cues or subs.

Hello Claude !!!
Just downloaded 6.7. Nice upgrade ! It just came to me that there's panic in the OSC action. Couldn't it be what's exactly what I'm looking for? Actually, messages are structured like that. For example: osc:10.0.0.165:8000~/cmd.lxconsole/EFXstart:Effect1 and it works perfectly for CLEARSUBS, UNMARK, CLEAR ETC...
I don't know what PANIC is for but, it doesn't seem to have any effect whatsoever. It's written as the others:
osc:10.0.0.165:8000~/cmd.lxconsole/PANIC
So what PANIC is for ? Usually it's to stop/reset everything, no ?
I'm short of ways to thank you...

Re: Total Black out
PANIC stops everything that is running, cues, effects, sequences. It freezes the output at whatever state it is in when the panic is executed.

Hello Claude !!!
It looks like I'm not allowed to put that kind of code in the action command column. When am using something in the list like: UNMARK, CLEAR,CLEARSUB it works perfectly. But when I use BLACKOUT, it shows /cmd.lxconsole/BLACKOUT and nothing happen.
At the end of the day, what I'd like to achieved when I click BLACKOUT from the display window, is to black everything but the master would stay up. That way, I would be ready to fire the next cue. Is it possible?
Merci Beaucoup !

Re: Total Black out
If you want to simply have a blackout cue, you can do that and execute it using OSC. You'll need to find a way to set the next cue to be executed after running your blackout cue. If it is a simple restore to the cue you exited, just use BACK after running the blackout cue.
For example you could send /BLACKOUT via OSC.
In the Setup window's OSC table create an entry in the action table that responds to /BLACKOUT
set the action to be executed to cue:NN;GO
Where NN is the number of a blackout cue that you have recorded.
You could then make an action that responds to /RESTORE
In that action you would use BACK;STOP;GO
This goes back to the previous cue, stops that previous cue from running and starts whatever the next cue in the list is.
This allows you to go from some random cue, to your blackout cue and then to whatever the next cue in the cue list is after the one you exited to the black cue.
