Control Panels

One day I opened my project to edit some control panels. In the \"new\" mode I found an analog meter and several cool faders and meters...I went on editing, cutting some stuff from the defaults and adding them to my custom panel....Then I wen to get some items from the library ....everything I inserted came in with an ! and a bounding box.... seems like I lost a link, any idea?

    You drop the new control when you see a green box around the old. If you just drop it on the panel it will not have a control associated with it and show the exclamation mark.

    You can still find the controls you want on your custom panel in the Design Tree. Just navigate to the Blu processor/Default Configuration and find the processing bloc. Then drop elements from there onto your now orphaned controls.

    Then I just got it ....Thanks...there's a lot of cool stuff in there. Does 4 have any new Link options? We need INVERT or NOT type link.

    Hi John.

    Within a RADIO link, at all times, exactly 1 parameter within the link group will be HIGH, and all other parameters are LOW.

    By \"INVERT\" link, I'm assuming you simply mean the opposite of a RADIO link. If my assumption is correct, then...

    within an INVERT link, at all times, exactly 1 parameter within the link group will be LOW, and all other parameters are HIGH.

    You're correct: currently no such link-type exists. But you can create one using Logic.

    Example:
    You have 4 mutes. You want to \"INVERT link\" those 4 mutes. In other words, you want exactly 1 mute (no more, no less) to be unmuted at any point in time (with mutes, \"muted\"=HIGH, and \"unmuted\"=LOW).

    First, create the following logic circuit:
    [Logic Source] --> [NOT] --> [Logic End]

    Then copy/paste that logic circuit 3 times, so you have 4 circuits in total.

    Then RADIO LINK the 4 [Logic Source] objects together.

    Then link 1 of the 4 mutes to a [Logic End]. Repeat 3 more times until all 4 mutes are linked to a [Logic End].

    Then point your control system (LA control panel, 3rd party controller, BLU-10, BLU-8, iPad, GPI, etc....) at the buttons within the [Logic Source] control panels.

    Done.

    Watch the mutes as you use those buttons. Only 1 mute will be unmuted at any point in time.

    WARNING: do not use this on Room Combine mutes. It will create a control loop.

    Thanks Kevin.... I ended up using preset recalls and the very cool preset trigger.... However I just used this idea to \"share\" a a wireless mic between two spaces...

    Can third party Crestron device access the control panels, giving them one interface/module or do they need to access the actual object?

    Please clarify your question. It's unclear which \"control panels\" or \"actual objects\" you're referring to.
  • jdroadiejdroadie Posts: 23
    Can they attach to objects on my custom control panel? Or only the primary objects on default control panels?

    Also Full screen is stuck on and shift F5 doesn't bail out!?!

    When SHIFT+F5 (the keyboard shortcut for \"switch to design mode\") doesn't work, that means you're currently logged in as a user with no design rights. Switch to a different user by pressing CTRL+L
