Hi i'm Matt Halberstadt, and today we're going to talk about Eos OSC intergration with lightwright version 6.
Let's get set up! First we'll need a lightright computer and a switch or some sort of network to connect the two devices to our EOS console.
Then we have to make sure that our EOS settings match
OSC settings on the network.
So let's look at port one in our network tab,
and enable OSC.
and startup EOS.
for setting up OSC and lightwright
let's click on the console connect button.
You can see here that it shows you the IP address that you'll need to set up an EOS
and we will enter the IP address of the EOS console
To find the IP address of the EOS console, you can,
do that in the shell settings, network tab or you can press about on the council
and it will show you the IP address.
So let's go ahead and enter the IP address in lightwright.
And enable use console link.
now let's go back to EOS, and go to the show settings.
show control and you can see we've entered the IP address for lightwright
and we've enabled string receive and OSC transmit.
Click OK and lightwright,
and lightwright will show you that it's connected
by turning on the yellow console link
and your main worksheet let's enable a new function
by right-clicking going to show columns
and adding council level you can see the same icon
that's used for council link indicates that the channels will have a level from EOS.
So just to quickly show setting a level select the address that you'd like
press the spacebar on your plate right computer and you can set it to a level
now you can see in EOS that channel one is at forty percent that you set in lightwright
and the communication is confirmed that it's working
let's go ahead and take that channel out.
This also works on EOS, so let's set a few levels.
Let's do channels 1,
through 16 at full.
Now to find out what channels have levels from EOS
in lightwright go to your utilities tab and click few active channels in worksheet.
lightwright will get the information from EOS you can see
that the channels that I have patched in my worksheet 1 through 9 are showing as
active and EOS has an active as well.
It also shows you some channels that I don't have patch in my lightwright worksheet
we can quickly find that information directly from EOS
using the compare console patch verse lightwright patch
so you can see channels 11 through 26 that EOS has patched are not included in lightwright at this time.
so this gives you a quick and easy way to compare the council patch vs your light bright patch.
So let's take those channels out.
Go back to all our channels
another thing that you can do is get all the cute list from us into lightwright
let's go ahead and open our current queue list in lightwright
it only has cue list one,
and now we want to populate all this data from EOS into lightwright.
So let's get from the cue list menu get all cue lists from the council
and you can now see that it's populated with my EOS cue list.
And let's enable a few functions in lightwright so that lightwright can
stay up to date with what the EOS console is doing.
so from cue list menu, let's enable show active cue
scroll as cues fire
and let's show the cue buttons in case you want to control EOS from lightwright.
So as you can see in EOS, our cue list that we have loaded is exactly the same as what lightwright is showing.
So let's record another cue let's set our channels 1 through 15 at full
and record a new cue. Record cue 13
You can see as I recorded cue 13,
Lightwright was updated with that information.
I can also label cue 13 label
and let's enter "end of show"
as soon as I enter that label lightwright will also update
OSC is bi-directional communication so we can actually label
right from lightwright and get the information into EOS.
So let's go ahead and do a few labels in lightwright as well
and to send that
information to us we'll use the cue list
send cue labels to counsel now you can see that the labels appeared in my cue list from lightwright
lightwright will also follow what the console is doing so as I'm running cues
you can see this indicator
advancing as the cues run in EOS
even if I go out of order on EOS, go to cue 9
lightwright will stay in sync
we can also force EOS to go to a specific cue from lightwright by selecting a
specified cue by hitting selected cue go
you can also take the entire cue lists to out as well as stop back functionality.
In lightwright you can also select multiple channels by using control,
selecting them,
pressing the spacebar and setting them to a specific level.
You can see in the EOS channels 1 through 6 updated accordingly.
Another thing you can do from the lightwright worksheet is send purpose labels
directly to EOS, and us will update the patch text database information with theinformation you've entered
So let's go ahead and send short purpose to console as channel labels.
Click OK and now if we go into patch you can see all the labels have been updated
in EOS from the light right information
and the final thing that is new in lightwright version 6
is export your lightright information in a specific eos format.
This will allow you to use the EOS light right import cleanly and easily with all
these specified defaults directly into your console
Then you can take that file and load it directly into EOS.
