    We are trying to send OSC commands via a VB control panel and have not been able to successfully execute any command that requires an argument.

    An example (attached screenshot 2) shows the successful exection of the following command:

    /beyond/master/blackout

    However, the following commands are not successful (screenshot 5) and do nothing. We are trying to trigger a specific cue:

    /beyond/cue/1/6/startcue
    or
    /beyond/general/startcue

    We are able to play a cue with the CueDown command or StartCell, however they do not have any arguments and do not allow for specific cue selections, such as Page 1 Cue 6, etc.

    In addition, the following simple command to change the brightness (screenshot 6) of anything currently displaying does nothing:

    /beyond/general/brightness 25

    Again, any command that does not need an argument/value will execute fine, anything that requires any argument/value does not execute.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for question. There is typical mistake. Please check out OSC protocol specification. Message has 3 parts - address, TTS, and optional arguments. Putting arguments in a text form into address is not correct. So, if command require arguments, then you must specify TTS, and arguments according to specification. Arguments in a text form, at the end of address is not correct.

    BEYOND Check number and type of arguments. Each OSC message has internal definition (and execution), and execution part will ignore messages with incorrect arguments. Open window Settings-OSC-OSC Server, On the 1st tab you will see embedded HTML file with tables - address, arguments, commentaries.

    Many OSC command redirected to PangoScript. In such cases - check number of arguments in PangoScript command table.

    Hope it helps.

    Best Regards,
    Alexey.

    I'm trying to figure this out as well... Alexey, can you just simply answer the question without all the extra, more confusing text??

    If I want to send the OSC command to trigger cue #6 on page #1... using TouchOSC from the iPad to Beyond... please, just show the command!
