Events Best Practices

This example shows that the ser_send command is used to send the serial com-
mand from the serial port on the SoundStructure with device ID 1. The
command being sent is preset near go 1. The "\r" at the end of the command
name represents a carriage return.
If an RS232 port is in the broadcast mode then that serial port cannot be used
for controlling the SoundStructure system from an external control system or
SoundStructure Studio.
When creating SoundStructure events, the following recommendations will
make it easier to use events.
1. Define logic inputs and outputs before trying to use logic inputs or outputs
with events.
2. Confirm the wiring of the defined logic inputs and outputs matches the
physical wiring to the DB25 connectors on SoundStructure devices. If neces-
sary move logic pins definitions on the wiring page to match the physical
wiring.
If logic pins are moved on the wiring page, save the project file to ensure the
settings are stored permanently into the SoundStructure device.
3. Double check the source, trigger, and action to ensure the event does what
you desire.
