DMX       rs232
1            command 1
2            command 2
3            command 3
4            command 4
.

.
255        command 255

I need send via rs232 string like this command space dmx value
Begining of each command is this same, only change number at the end (that exactly mach to dmx value)

We're planning to release a new version at the end of the week.
It will include the functionality you're looking for.

Hello,

Yes, now its possible.
The first task will send "command " to the serial port
The second task will convert the DMX value to a decimal number.
The last task will add a <RETURN>

The program on the bottom left shows the data received on my computer

Sorry i was looking for os software. It works, but sometimes i have some latency. On friday i will try it on another mixer (that i tested before with old firmware). Did you thinking about tcpip serial port in iocore?

Unfortunately this would require quite a bit of work because of the way the Cue/IoCore has been designed. The memory is limited.

Serial commands works perfect. But i can not change subnet mask by net browser and vmanager also.
Next step in our integration is manual trasition and i need send command like "command @value" (value range 0-1000)
Have you got any idea how to do this?

Bug confirmed, thanks for reporting.

Where is this value 0-1000 coming from?

I must send command like "command value", where min value is 0, max value is 1000. Is it any posibility to multiplay dmx incoming value(for example by 4, 250x4=1000)?

At the moment its not possible to set a range like 0-1000.
But we can add something in next version (probably later this week)
