Show Control - Visual Productions TIMECORE Manual

Chapter 5

Show Control

The TimeCore can interact with the outside world; it can receive messages and
values through various protocols and it can send out many protocols. It is pos-
sible to automate the TimeCore by having it respond automatically to incoming
signals. An example of this would be to start the time-code clock upon receiv-
ing a specific UDP network message. The Show Control page (See figure 5.1)
enables this kind of programming to be made.
Figure 5.1: Show Control page
The Show Control page presents a system of 'actions'. A signal that the
TimeCore needs to respond to or perhaps convert into some other signal, needs
to be expressed in an actions. Converting timecode protocols is the exception;
this can be done in the Settings page (see page 28).Before programming actions
please consider the Show Control structure in figure 5.2.
