To start recording, press the Record button. The button will change to Stop and the time display will begin
counting. Recording of DMX channel values will continue until the Stop button is pressed.
Record Length Option
This field can be used to limit the length of the recording to a specific number of seconds. Any number of
seconds may be entered down to 1/100th second precision.
When a Record Length has been specified, the stream recording will automatically stop after the length has
been reached.
If this field is empty, recording will continue until the Stop button is pressed.
Trigger Channel Option
This field can be used to specify a channel number that the CueServer should watch to automatically start
and stop the stream recording. When the input channel rises above zero, the recording will start. Then,
when the input channel falls back to zero, the recording will stop.
The typical use for this feature is to allow the external console that is sending DMX data to be able to start
and stop the CueServer's recording by raising and lowering this "trigger channel". Any channel can be
chosen, but it is typical to use a channel that is not being used by a dimmer or fixture.
When a trigger channel is specified, press the Record button to begin waiting for the trigger channel to rise
above zero. As long as the trigger channel is being received as zero, the time display will wait to start
recording:
