Hey guys it’s me you know the guy that asks a million questions. I realize that the Christie ACT controller is not for the faint of heart but I managed to pick up a couple of these. I’d like to use one to extend the GPIO on my Doremi. The controller comes with a bunch of default stuff loaded on that works. I can even execute macros from my Doremi and get the controller to do various things. I am not very good at scripting but I am good at programming PLC controllers so my question is can I simply set this ACT up so when I execute a macro that I create it will just pulse the relays for one second? Example if i create a macro named “Pulse Relay 1” it would cause relay and LED one to pulse on for one second. I could then set up a PLC to takes these pulses and use them to control various equipment in my projection room. Thank you!
