Manage Automation
You use automation to control playback, the projector, and external devices. The Christie IMB
includes built-in support for some external automation devices. If the device is not supported, you
can use the serial-over-Ethernet protocol to send automation commands.
This section provides instructions for managing and defining:
• Macros - A macro is a list of actions that you define. For example, opening the curtains or
turning on the house lights at the end of playback. A macro can be activated by a global trigger,
or it can be added to a play list.
• Input Cues - Input cues wait for events such as a general purpose input (GPI) state change or
an Ethernet message received on TPC port 5111. An input cue in a play list delays playback until
an event occurs. In a global trigger, a macro runs when an input cue event occurs. These are the
available input cues:
• Global Triggers - A global trigger combines an input cue with a macro. When the predefined
event for the input cue occurs, the output macro is triggered. For example, a fire alarm input
signal could cause playback to stop and the house lights to come on. A global trigger is always
active and is not dependent on specific play list definitions.
To add a macro or an input cue to a play list, see Add Automation to a Play List on page 72 .
