OSC control of cue firing from Show Cue System

I am trying and finally succeeded in getting SCS "command" to fire cues on my Element. BUT. The cues trigger, yet nothing happens. The fired cue has a gold outline, but the lights themselves do not change. When pushing a go button on the board, the present cue is in a solid gold box. Not an outline. it's as if I just punched "cue 11 enter" on the console. looks like it needs one more command to actually make it "go". 

I am using " /eos/cue/x/fire" as the command (worked on Q-Lab).

 

I have tried substituting "start" and "go" as well, but they all come to the same nothing. What am i missing? I tried MIDI show control as well, but Element just would not listen, no matter WHAT settings I used on either component. Never had this trouble before.

This is going to be used for a lighting sequence triggered by timed triggers in time with music.

Thanks!

    Are you sending an argument with the message?  number for button edge: 1.0=down, 0.0=up (optional)

    If you are sending it just with the 1.0 then you are not releasing the button and the action would not trigger.  Either send it with a 1 and a 0 or send it without an argument.  

    Does SCS transmit arguments or just the message?

     

    I haven't used this particular command over osc but have used the /eos/macro/#/fire successfully.

    SCS gives a choice of gadgets to send OSC to, including PJLink, and Lightfactory. All the info I can find says that the above command "/eos/cue/x/fire" will work, and it has on Qlab. I chose "any Device" from the list, as it is the only one that doesn't come up with an error message. When the signal to Element is sent, the cue gets selected, but does not "fire".

    And I cannot get MIDI Show Control to do anything, and I've tried 4 different midi cards, cables and many setup options in the Element. MIDI IDs go from 1-127, or 0-126. i tried offsetting, to no avail.

    I gotta be missing one argument, as you say.
