Automation & remote control

Choose and order trigger actions

Set exactly what a trigger changes and which scene, source or command it affects.

Before you start

Open the intended collection and layout. Make changes during preparation and check a short rehearsal before using them in a live show.

Where to find it

Trigger editor > Manage Actions.

Set it up

Choose Add Action.
Select Action and complete the fields that appear for it.
Select a target from the current collection rather than typing a guessed name.
Set Wait before action (ms) and Enabled.
Choose Done for the action, then use Up/Down to put actions in order.
Rehearse the event; verify every enabled action in that order.

Action choices

Action	Result
Switch Program Scene	Select the target scene and applicable transition/duration for the live picture.
Set Preview Scene	Select a scene for preparation in Preview.
Show / Hide Source	Change the target source item’s visibility.
Lock / Unlock Source	Change the item’s editing lock.
Mute / Unmute Source	Change an audio-capable target’s mute state.
Start / Stop Auto Switcher	Control the selected saved scene switcher.
Cut / Fade Transition	Perform the offered transition action.
Run Command	Choose an offered command and complete its required parameters.

Only applicable controls appear

Target Scene, Target Source, Auto Switcher, Command, Transition and Duration apply to different actions. Audio actions require an audio-capable source. Run Command lists commands supported for triggers.

Advanced parameters

Use the fields offered for the selected command. Leave Advanced Command Parameters unchanged unless the chosen command’s help requires them; do not paste private credentials or an unrelated command example.

Edit or pause

Edit updates the selected action. Remove Action removes it from the rule. Disabling it preserves its place but prevents it from running. A wait does not wait for media completion.
