Note
You cannot display single characters or State Variable values using LCD
Wizard. These values must be manually entered into the resulting String Data.
Entering Data Strings
Data Strings to be sent out a serial port via the MessageOut event can either be
entered manually in the appropriate Data column of the
MessageOut
event or
as a “Data String”. A Data String can be addressed by its name in a
MessageOut event, but a manually entered string must be retyped in a Data
column every time you wish to use it. For more information on manually
entering strings into an Event, see S
equence Editing .

To Enter A Simple Serial Message As String Data
String Data can consist of single bytes or quoted text. Single bytes and quoted
text can be included in the same string, but must be separated by a comma or
space:
h00 h00 h01,“PL”,h0D
Sends the message:
h00 h00 h01 h50 h4C h0D
SMPTE Triggering
Every sequence that resides in a Show Controller may be SMPTE triggered
using an Alcorn McBride SMPTE Machine. To use a SMPTE Machine in this
manner configure the SMPTE Machine using WinScript, set SMPTE triggers in
the desired sequences (see
Configuring Sequence Properties ), and download the
compiled script through the SMPTE Machine to your Show Controller (see
Compiling and Downloading later in this chapter).
Note
If you’re using an Alcorn McBride show controller with our Digital
Binloop, you don’t need a separate SMPTE Machine. All of the same
capabilities exist in the Binloop’s controller card. Just plug your show
controller into the Binloop’s show control port
To configure the SMPTE Machine using WinScript choose
Configuration |
SMPTE…
, and enter the desired operating parameters in the Configuration
SMPTE
dialog box. Then, connect the SMPTE Machine to a COM Port of
your PC and click
