Hey guys,
I am trying to write a few simple macros, but Ion macros appear to be a bit more complex than on the earlier ETC consoles.
I would like to write LAMP ON and LAMP OFF macros for my moving lights. Right now, LAMP ON macro looks like this:
Group 1 (All ML's) ENTER LAMP_ON ENTER
I came by this macro by learning the sequence, then deleting all of the seemingly unnecessary "Lamp Ctrls," "Select_Last," and "Reset_Cmd" commands. This macro works fine.
However, my LAMP OFF macro reads:
Group 1 (All ML's) ENTER LAMP_OFF ENTER
When I fire this macro, my command line only reads "Group 1 Enter". For some reason, it is not taking the "LAMP_OFF" command. Why is this?
Also, is there a way I can make a Console Shutdown macro that does the following things:
1.) Lamp off All ML's
2.) Save to Show Archive
3.) Power off console
4.) Leave the CIA on the "Confirm" screen so that you have to confirm before powering off
It appears that the "Power off console" command in the browser does not get recorded into the macro the same way that the Save command does. Or perhaps those Browser commands don't get stored in the macro without their confirm commands...?
Any help would be appreciated!
