Remote command restart Airscan

Postby rubendesnoo » Wed Sep 26, 2012 10:06 am

Hi,

I'm working on a set-up with the airscan on stage, and my lightdesk at the front of house. My Widget designer will be located backstage.
I enable and disable artnet in widget desigener, with my light desk (via artnet). Sometimes the airscan has an error and I need to have the possibility to restart the airscan in the widgetdesigner software.

Is there a solution for remotely (artnet/udp) restart my airscan in the software?

best regards

Hi,

actually there's no Airscan connect / disconnect script, sorry, but it will be implemented in one of the next versions.

Meanwhile this is maybe a workaround for you:

The Airscan properties always open up center screen so you can easily use mouse move and click scripts in a custom script button.
For example (with a screen resolution of 1920x1080):
Code: Select all
OpenAirScanProperties
MouseMove,990,210
WDWait,1
MouseLeftClick
WDWait,1
MouseLeftClick
WDWait,1
MouseMove,1087,180
MouseLeftClick


Explanation (line by line):
1 opens up the airscan properties
2 moves the mouse to the connect/disconnect button
3 waits in case the properties windows takes a while to open up
4 clicks the button for connect / disconnect
5 waits for connect / disconnect process
6 clicks the button for connect / disconnect
7 waits for connect / disconnect process
8 moves the mouse to the X for closing the airscan properties
9 clicks the X for closing the window the airscan properties

Hope this helps for the moment.

Hi Ruben,

within the next version you will find the commands:

"WDAirScanConnect,IP"
"WDAirScanDisconnect"

Hope this helps along...
