DMX to Keystroke Input

I am looking to be able to have a DMX signal be converted into a keystroke on either a PC or a Mac.  I would like to be able to set keys and macros to be able to fire based on an established address. Example:

One macro to be able to push 

1 Control Cue Lab by pushing space bar via DMX

2 Switch Video input on Analog Way Web RCS with established hot keys 

3 Go to video look on ion 

 

Next macro 

1 Back to show

2 Take content on Web RCS 

 

I figure I might be able to have a DMX in to an Arduino to a keyboard encoder out or have that all done though Raspberry Pi.  Has anyone done something like this before? (not including Rosco's discontinued Keystroke) 

 

Thanks!

  • This would be much easier to implement without any harware using OSC or UDP strings rather than by trying to emulate keystrokes.

    Controlling QLab via OSC is already supported and documented both by ETC and Figure53.

    It looks like Web RCS is a web-based user interface that allows remote control of LiveCore. Rather than driving the GUI, it may be better to directly control the LiveCore device. Download the LiveCore programmer's guide to see what options there are.
