Request Layer Source
The RLS command retrieves the current source name and associated source register ID loaded
on a specified layer. If no source is currently assigned to the specified layer, the 'Empty' result
code will be returned with no further parameters. If a source is assigned to the specified layer,
but no corresponding register can be found, a ‐1 will be returned for the register ID.
Syntax: RLS <Layer ID>
Response: <Result Code> <Source Name> <Source Register ID>
Command: RLS
Argument 1: LayerID
Layer Alignment Control
The layer alignment control allows one or more layer KeyFrames to be manipulated by the
Spyder server to achieve a specified alignment effect. The alignment effects are the same as the
ones available from the simulator control of the Vista control suite software clients.
Command: LAC
Argument 1: Alignment effect ID. See 'Layer Alignment Effects' table below
Argument 2: Alignment recall duration (specified in frames)
Argument 3~XX: Layer ID(s)
Delete Command Key
This command can be used to delete an existing command key by either a specified register ID,
or by a script ID. Note that argument two is optional, if not supplied is defaulted to 'Script ID'.
Command: DCK
Argument 1: ID to Delete
Argument 2*: ID Type in Argument 1 (S=ScriptID, R=RegisterID)
Request Connection Status
This command allows for the current connected or disconnected status of a specified input to be
queried. When called, the system will poll the current connector type of the specified input in
an attempt to determine if a video source is connected. Calling applications should be careful
not to call this command too frequently (more than once per second), or degraded system
performance may occur as a result.
Syntax: RCS <Layer ID>
Response: <Result Code> <Layer ID> <Current Connector Type> <Connection Status>
•
Connection Status (0=Disconnected, 1=Connected, 2=Unknown)
•
Current Connector Type (0=HD15, 1=DVI, 2=SDI, 3=Composite, 4=SVideo)
