Using variables in TCP commands

[Gast]

Hi All,

i am working on an update of on old project.
It has an TCP to DMX converter. Commands like:

S1V0\x0D for setting channel 1 to 0
and
S2V155\x0D for stting channel 2 to 155

Is it possible to use the analog value output of a lightning controller and insert this to the command??

You can simply use S1V<v>\x0D.
Your command must be set to analoque, and the input of the output (yes, strange saying) must be a value instead of a On pulse.

Hi Christian,

that works for me! Any idea how to set the value between 0 and 100%?
Lights are a bit low so i'm guessing it's only sending to 100 instead of 255..

greetings!

In that case, you have to re-calculate the value. Try the Scaling block (don't know the real name), with parameters 0=0 and 100=255.
