You can have multiple Events with the same input trigger. When that defined trigger is detected by the CB6000
all the matching Events will be executed in no particular order. For each such Event, the Actions for the Event
will execute according to that Event’s mode setting (see below); however, Actions for different Events may be
intermingled with each other. If you care about the order in which Actions happen, put them all in a
single
Event and set the mode to
Each
.
•
Select the mode in which you would like to run the defined Actions:
•
All
: the CB6000 will attempt to execute all Actions for that event simultaneously, but in no particular order
(e.g., Action 2 and Action 1 and Action 3...)
•
Each
: the CB6000 will execute all Actions in the order listed (e.g., Action 1, then Action 2, then Action 3...)
This is useful when the order matters to you; for example, turning off a projector before retracting a projec-
tor screen.
•
One per call
: the CB6000 will treat the actions as a loop, executing the next Action in the series each time
the Event is initiated (e.g., Action 1 on the first button press, Action 2 on the second button press, Action 1
on the third button press, etc.). This is useful for toggle functions like power.
•
Assign or remove one or more Actions to this Event using the list under
Current Event Actions
:
•
Click the
+
button and select the desired action from the list that appears below (Note that the order of
the Actions in the list matters if you have chosen to run these in
Each
or
One per Call
mode.)
•
To remove an Action, click the
-
button next to the action you no longer want to run
If the CB6000 has been physically installed, you can test the Event you created by clicking the
Test Event
button.
(Note that you can also test Events via the
Event Viewer
by clicking on the checkmark to the right of each Event.)
Be sure to
Save
the Event before moving to another section
11. IR Learning
If you are controlling devices that lack serial control ports (the recommended method for controlling non-networked
devices) but have an infrared remote control, you can place your CB6000 into an IR learning mode.
•
Choose
Enter Command
•
Select one of the ‘Learn Universal IR...’ options from the drop-down list
•
Click
Send CMD
•
Hold the device’s IR remote control within 15cm/6in of the CB6000 LCD screen, then press the button on the
remote control for the function to be learned
•
The IR command string will appear in the
Receive Command
window, and is available for copying and pasting
into an Action Definition (see Appendix A.3).
When an IR command is learned the controller inserts an “IR Header” onto the front of the command. Each Hex
byte of this header contains information pertaining to certain IR parameters of a learned code. It is not retransmit-
ted with the IR code. It tells the controller what to do with the code string that follows. It is helpful to understand the
first 6 bytes of this header when dealing with difficult IR devices.
Example IR header: 40 00 03 00 01 54
BYTE 1:
Carrier frequency of the IR command: 28kHz, 30kHz, 32kHz, 36kHz, 38kHz, 40kHz and 56kHz. This byte
should not be changed unless there is a need to strip the carrier from the IR signal. This can be accom-
plished by changing the byte to 00.
BYTE 2:
Idle/Delay time – a user adjustable time to override the existing idle gap between IR bursts when the IR
command is sent more than once, or to add a delay time after the last IR command burst. Allowable timing
increments are 04h – 7Fh for an idle gap override, and 80h - FFh for an added delay time. Each hex unit is
equal to 10ms delay. For example, a value of 0Ah (decimal 10) would insert a delay of 100ms between the
IR bursts. Default is 00h, which means that the controller will use the idle time that is part of the learned IR
code. A value of 90h (decimal 144) would add a 1.44 second delay after the last IR command sent.
BYTE 3:
Repeat - selects how many times the IR command is to be repeated. Allowable values are from 01h to FFh
(must be in Hex form!). Default is 03h and 00h is invalid.
