Sends information using the following interfaces:

  • Send Zone Message: Triggers a Zone Message event with the same command parameter as the Send Zone Message command.

  • UDP: Sends a message to a networked device using the UDP protocol. Go to Presentation Settings > Interactive > Networking to specify the destination address and port for UDP messages.

  • Send IR Remote: Sends a command via the 3.5mm IR Out port.

  • Send IR Remote (Pronto): Sends a command using Pronto Hex Code (PHC) via the 3.5mm IR Out por.

  • Serial string (EOL): Sends the specified string to the specified serial port. This command adds a carriage return at the end of the string.

  • Serial string (no EOL): Sends the specified string to the specified serial port. This command does not add a carriage return at the end of the string.

  • Serial byte: Sends the specified byte to the specified serial port. The byte must be entered in decimal format (0-255).

  • Serial bytes (comma separated): Sends the specified bytes to the specified serial port in comma-separated format.

Most standard serial devices enumerate on port 0 (on the HO523, they will enumerate on port 1). If you are connecting a USB-serial device, it will enumerate on port 2.

  • Send Plugin Message: Sends the specified string to a custom script plugin attached to the presentation. Use the dropdown menu to select a desired script plugin. Please see the Parsers and Plugins tech note for more information on creating custom scripts that can receive plugin messages.
