HOW TO TRIGGER SUNLITE CYCLES FROM OS2L ?

Post by jem24h »

Hi all,

My goal is to use Sunlite Suite 3 in order to have : 1 lightshow per song (the songs are played in virtual DJ)
In order to do that I make : 1 cycle per song in Sunlite
From Virtual DJ cuepoint-editor or pads, I manage to trigger a Scene in sunlite, so the OS2L works. However I can't trigger a Cycle, and that's what I really need.

I'm using this command : os2l_button 'HELLO'
(My cycle in Sunlite is called HELLO and is located in the master page)

Can anyone help me please ?

Hello Jam24h,

I check with Sunlite Suite 2 and it works without issues. Since I don´t have a Suite 3 interface a can´t test with this version.
I tried both ways : "Button Names" and "VDJ ID" over the console.
Have you tried the ID way yet ?

If you want to trigger a cycle from VDJ per name try this :

'Page Name' 'Cycle Button Name" on

If you don´t end with "on" the cycle will only play as long as you press the button in VDJ (Flash Mode)

Best regards
Gernot

So I tried - see the picture enclosed
As I said it works with the button "All Red" with the command line : os2l_button '_MASTER' 'All Red' On
But it doesn't work for the following cycles :
-- Cycle "Hello" in the MASTER page - os2l_button '_MASTER' 'HELLO' on
-- Cycle "xxx" in the LIXADA page - os2l_button 'LIXADA' 'XXX' on
