Hi,



I'm looking for more info on the RS232 functionality available in Myriad (V3). Is there any documentation?



Specifically, can the "RS232-based controller" settings under "Hardware Cards" be used to send arbitrary RS232 commands to arbitrary devices, or is it just a limited subset of "supported devices"? I've got several devices, including an audio matrix, which are controllable via rs232 - it might be nice to be able to switch things via myriad..

You can add RS232 outputs in Myriad v3 via the Commands section.

Commands are log items that perform a set task which might be:

  • Run an external program
  • Perform Myriad macro commands
  • Send RS232 strings.

As log items they can be scheduled or manually inserted in to the log.

Commands are covered fully in the Myriad v3 documentation.
