Custom Controls
Once programmed, a custom control (CC) can be
played back by pressing a button. The custom control
can be as simple as triggering an output GPI pulse, or
as complex as recalling a specific memory register on
an ME, performing a switcher transition, and selecting
a group of keys.
You can record, edit, and run custom controls from the
Custom Control node in DashBoard.
Custom Control Setup
The custom control interface on your switcher can
be customized to show custom control names on the
mnemonics just below the Custom Control bus, or
automatically add delays between each custom control
event as you are recording a custom.

Recording Custom Controls
