Act on Changes Trigger
When a DMX Trigger is set to the
Act on Changes
type, any time the incoming DMX value changes, a
CueScript action is executed.
This type of trigger is best used to create custom actions that take the input value of a DMX channel and
perform some kind of operation upon it. For example, a trigger of this type can output a string via a serial
port or by UDP messages that passes the DMX channel value to another device. Another example would be
to control a group of channels from the input of a single channel.
When editing an
Act on Changes
trigger, the editor panel will appear similar to this example:
The following properties can be set for an
