Creating a new Motion Controller

For example, to create a connection between PosiStageNet and Disguise software, we would do the following:

1. Right click the Devices menu on the dashboard and create a new device. Call it Automation. 
   
   

2. The software will ask what kind of device this is, select PositionReceiver Device as the type. 
   
   

3. The Automation Device now needs a Driver added. The Driver is the connection that receives data from the external system.
   

   Under the 'Driver' tab of the Automation device, press the + button to add and name the relevant driver.
   

   Additional information may be required, such as the IP Address the data is coming from. 
   

     

   
   

  

4. Input the port that is set on the sending Automation system. Further filtering can be done by IP if necessary
   

5. If Disguise software is receiving information from the device, the device recording menu will show a green bar, as shown here:  
   

To create an Automation device that can be controlled by DMX, follow these steps:

1. Open the devices menu and create a new type of device

2. Next, expand the Drivers section and left click on the + to add a new driver

   

3. Select DMXScreenPositionDriver from the list

   

4. Edit the properties of the driver as needed

   

   For additional information on these DMX Screen Position Driver properties, visit DMX Screen Position Driver

   Please note: DMX Screen Position Driver supports 32bit, so when using a DMX console that outputs just 16bits, set the 3 and 4 bytes to 0 and use little endian encoding.

5. Ensure the device is engaged, and if needed, access additional properties of the DMX Screen Position Receiver by right clicking on the name of the device in the Stage Reference field
