AutoActivate Cue feature on Airlite when activating PFL

English Scripts
1

Hi all,

I have a D&R Airlite and use channel 7 as my cue channel. Is there a way to automatically activate the Cue button on the Airlite when I right-click an item in the cartwall, browser or playlist and choose ‘PFL’?

In other words: Can mAirlist send a ‘Cue on’ command when the Cue editor is opened an a ‘Cue off’ command when the Cue editor is closed?

Hello Maarten,

I have moved your question to “Scripts”.

From v6.3 on you can realise that with a script.
Please find details here:
https://wiki.mairlist.com/config:remotecontrol:airlite#scripting

Starting with mAirList 6.3, access to the following low level remote functions is possible through the IAirliteRemote interface:
(…)
function RemoteCue(iCueType: TAirliteCueType; iAction: TAirliteAction): integer;

An example you will find in this article, too:

Switch on Cue on module No. 8 when Extra-PFL is launched:

Hi Uli,

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

Unfortunately I can’t get the script to activate the cue for channel 7 when the cue editor is opened.

I think ‘ExtraPFL’ refers to the optional screen object, not the default cue editor, correct? Where can I find what the right name is for the Cue Editor? I found a Windows Help File with a lot of pages, but they seem to be empty.

Also, I’m not sure what parameters I need to provide when calling the procedure from the main programme part of the script.

Any help is highly appreciated!

Thanks,

Maarten

Hi,

I solved it by adding this script from @Tondose as a background script. (Mind the typo ‘alaDectivate’ instead of ‘alaDeactivate’).
