Show Control Setup 5
Show Control Setup
In [Setup]>{Show}>{Show Control}, you can adjust settings for MIDI Show Control, time code
(MIDI or SMPTE), analog, and serial functions.
Setup Options
{SMPTE Time Code Rx}
This touchbutton is used to control whether your console can receive SMPTE time code. Choosing
“Disabled” will disable all time code lists that have a SMPTE source. The default for this setting is
“Enabled”.
{MIDI Time Code Rx}
As above, but for MIDI Time Code instead of SMPTE. The default for this setting is “Enabled”.
{Resync Frames}
This touchbutton allows you to configure how many frames need to be synced before time code
starts running. Frames can be from 1-30. Default is 2 frames.
{MSC Receive}
This touchbutton toggles the setting for receiving MIDI Show Control from an external source
between “Enabled” and “Disabled”. The default setting is “Disabled”.
{MSC Receive Channel}
Also known as a “Device ID” this setting configures the MIDI channel for the console to receive
MIDI Show Control information. Only MSC data with the same device ID will be received. A device
ID can be from 0-126, or if set to 127, Eos Ti, Gio, Ion, or Element will receive MSC data from all IDs
(All Call). Eos cannot be set as an All Call receiver. For example:
• {MSC Receive Channel} [5] [0] [Enter]
{ACN MIDI Rx ID(s)}
This setting allows you to specify the MIDI Show Control data that your console will receive when
transmitted over the Architecture for Control Network (ACN). When set, the console will respond to
MSC data from any gateway that has its “ACN MIDI Rx ID” set to the same number. ACN MIDI Rx
ID can be from 1-32. ID ranges may be used. When using the local MIDI ports on Eos Ti, Gio, Ion,
or Element, this setting needs to match the MIDI Rx Group ID in the ECU>{Settings}>{Local I/
O}>Show Control Gateway>Group IDs.For example:
• {ACN MIDI Rx ID} [2] [5] [Enter]
• {ACN MIDI Rx ID} [1] [Thru] [1][0] [Enter]
{MSC Transmit}
This setting, when enabled, allows the console to send MSC messages for actions taken on the
console, such as cue actions, macros firing, and submaster bumps.
The default setting is
“Disabled”.
{MSC Transmit Channel}
Also know as “Device ID” this setting allows you to establish the device ID with which your console
will transmit MIDI Show Control information. A device ID can be from 0-126, or if set to 127, Eos,
Eos Ti, Gio, Ion, or Element will transmit MSC data to all IDs (All Call). For example:
• {MSC Transmit Channel} [5] [0] [Enter]
