Author Topic: CP750 automation via DCP-2K4 Nguyen Jack Film Handler Posts: 93 From: Singapore Registered: Mar 2013 posted 03-15-2013 09:18 PM                     We have a DCP-2K4 connected to a Christie CP-2220 projector via SDI for video and connected to a Dolby CP750 via AES for audio. I can't make automation cues for Cp750, Please help me connect automation cues. Thanks.  |  IP: Logged Marco Giustini Film God Posts: 2713 From: Reading, UK Registered: Nov 2007 posted 03-16-2013 04:04 AM                     I think it's written somwehere on the forum. Connect the CP750 to the doremi network (give it a proper IP configuration so it can be seen); create a device under control panel/device manager. RAW device, the IP of the 750, port number 61408. Now you have to create a command for each function. To do so, go under Macro management (or what it's called, can't remember now!), create a new macro - for example "Fader 7.0" and add an action on the right pane. Choose a "message" to be sent to the device you've just created (say CP750), as text. For fader you will send the following message: cp750.sys.fader xx replacing xx with a fader setting (7.0 will be 70). Other commands available: cp750.sys.input_mode xxx with xxx: dig_1 dig_2 dig_3 dig_4 film analog non_sync cp750.sys.mute x with x= 0 or 1 cp750.sys.pcm_2_channel_decode_mode_1 xxxx with xxxx= lr_discrete (for 5.1) - 4_discrete_sur (for 7.1) As said, you will end up with a macro for each command (i.e. each fader setting will have a macro available) Hope this is clear enough, let me know if it's not.  |  IP: Logged Carsten Kurz Film God Posts: 4340 From: Cologne, NRW, Germany Registered: Aug 2009 posted 03-16-2013 07:00 PM                     There is also a cueslib for the CP750 available for the Doremi on Doremis european support ftp site. http://www.film-tech.com/ubb/f16/t001391.html Of course you can set it up manually as well, as Marco describes. - Carsten  |  IP: Logged Nguyen Jack Film Handler Posts: 93 From: Singapore Registered: Mar 2013 posted 03-18-2013 10:13 PM                     Thank for all support.  |  IP: Logged
