Command Data
02
Cue Number <optional> 00 <delimiter> Playlist <optional>
Halts all currently running transitions in the current Playlist. Equivalent to pressing the
PAUSE button. A cue number may be specified, in which case only the specified cue
will be halted.
03 [RESUME]
Command Data
03
Cue Number <optional> 00 <delimiter> Playlist <optional>
Causes any transitions halted due to a STOP command to continue running. Equivalent
to pressing the GO button after pressing PAUSE. A cue number may be specified, in
which case only the specified cue will be resumed.
04 [TIMED_GO]
Command Data
04
hr mn sc fr ff Cue Number <optional> 00 <delimiter> Playlist <optional>
Starts a timed transition or fade to a cue using a transition time sent in the data string.
The use of this command is not recommended, as all cues in Cognito have fade times.
Transition time stated using Standard Time Specification in “hr mn sc fr ff” format (hour
minute second frame fractional frame). Translating time, frames and fractional frame
counts to the Standard Time Specification is beyond the scope of this document.
If a Cue Number is specified in the data, that cue is triggered. If no Cue Number is
specified, the next cue in numerical sequence is triggered. Transitions "run" until
complete.
0A [RESET]
Is equivalent to releasing all Playlists. No data string should be sent with a reset
command.
Data Format
Cue numbers and Playlist numbers are stated using the hexadecimal equivalents (30H
through 39H) of the ASCII values for numbers 0-9 (zero through nine).
MSC allows the use of point cues, using the hexadecimal value (2EH) for the ASCII
decimal point character used to mark subsections. However, Cognito does not use point
cues, regardless of how the cue is labelled. Cue numbers are always whole number
(indexed from 1 at the top of the Playlist).
Selection of a specific Playlist is optional. A Cue Number must be used when a Playlist
is specified. Cognito uses a 'best-match' method to determine the Playlist name based
on the label. For example, a Playlist named "01-Main" would be referenced by MSC as
Playlist 1 or 31H.
