All commands, including item names included in the command string, are case sensitive.  
A carriage return <CR> must be sent to execute the command. 
 

Examples 

 
<Execute cue 4, on ‘Playlist 1’, using any programmed fade, wait, and follow times.> 
 
API.PlayListGotoAndExecuteFollows('Playlist 1', 4) <CR> 
 
<Release ‘Playlist 1’.> 
 
API.PlayListRelease('Playlist 1’) <CR> 
 
In addition to the above command set, Cognito supports much more advanced scripting 
using its built-in Lua interpreter.  For more information on the Lua programming 
language, see www.lua.org. 

Contact Closure Control 

The RS232 serial connector also offers a simple method of running Cues.  A momentary 
dry contact closure between Common and another pin will trigger the functions below.

DMX IN Control 

The DMX input port can receive DMX512 levels and use that information to trigger 
Memories recorded in the first Memory Page.  DMX channel 1 controls Memory 21, DMX 
Channel 2 controls Memory 22, and so on.  The mapping allows the first 20 Memories to 
be recalled from the console, leaving the external DMX source to act as a ‘fader wing’.  
Up to 380 Memories may be recalled using the DMX input.   
 

Show File Management 

Archiving/Restoring a Show 

Cognito saves all changes immediately to internal storage.  Shows may also be backed 
up and restored from any portable USB drive.   
 
Press the Power button once.  Touch the Setup icon, then the Show File icon. Choose 
from “Create a New Show”, “Open a Show File” or “Save a Copy of this Show”.  The last 
option saves the show to Cognito’s internal storage.  
 
To backup to or restore from USB, plug a USB drive into any of the USB ports on the 
console.  Press the Power button once.  From the on-screen menu, touch Setup.  From
