Re: xPL-LCD Update
Neil
Below is a copy of an osd message sent by a Determinator in response
to receiving a control.basic message from my lcdosd with menu1 data
embedded in the message...
My lcdosd displays the text section on the 2x20 lcd as follows......on off
50% 75% ...Sensor.basic messages will be sent depending on which button 1
to
4 is pressed
CBUS LIGHTS
ON OFF 50 75

target=AEC-LCDOSD.LCD1
}
osd.basic
{
command=clear
text=CBUS LIGHTS\NON OFF 50% 75%
delay=0
}
****************************************************************
This is a TRIG message sent by my lcdosd when button 1 is pressed..Several
Determinatores watch for this and also check the Menu Global and when both
are true the Determinator output actions are executed...eg cbus lites on
and
OSD message sent etc......
