Hello, I want to control the shutter of my Epson LCD H944a projector, in my show timeline, I want the shutter to close at a certain minute and open again at another minute. I manage 4 projectors but I can't find how The place to start is Epson. Find out from Epson if they offer external control by others and if so / how? Once that is clearly defined it is straightforward to send some forms of control (IP, ArtNet (DMX), RS-232, etc.). Or maybe someone on here has done it and will share. Adela btw I looked for more info on Epson LCD H944a with no success. when asking about other products it would help if you included a link to the product 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The $ character is a special character reserved in WATCHOUT string output as it is used to designate a single character hex value. For example, $0D sends the single character for carriage return . i think $24 will be replaced by just $ character. So if you are trying to send $(PVC:muteState) Then you would enter $24(PVC:muteState) into a WATCHOUT string cue. You may need to add a carriage return and / or line feed to the end of that string. Such as $24(PVC:muteState)$0D$0A To create that string cue you must define an output — go to Window - Output, add an output, give it a name like Proj1, define it as as a “network port (TCP or UDP)”, add IP address and port and then select TCP or UDP radio button at the bottom. Drag that output from the output window to a timeline to create a string cue. reference: https://www.dataton.com/watchout-users-guide/inputs-and-outputs/outputs Edited November 21 by jfk Corrected hex value (24 hex = 36 decimal oops) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dataton Partner RBeddig Posted Saturday at 04:20 PM Dataton Partner Report Share Posted Saturday at 04:20 PM Maybe rather $24(PVC:muteState)$0D$0A As Jim explained, the dollar sign "$" is a reserved letter inside WATCHOUT. It defines that the next to numbers/letters following a "$" sign are the hex-code for an ASCII letter or a non-printable ASCII code. Other software use other letters to describe a hex-code. The hex-code for the letter "$" is often defined as "x24" (you can find many lists and pictures on www to show you the relation between ASCII and hex-values) where "x" in this case also just tells you that the number is a hex-code. So if you need to send the letter "$" as the first byte of your string, you have to send the hex-code instead. $ > $24 (for WATCHOUT). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
