Communicating with multiple RTI Control
Processors from one RTI Remote
TheaterTouch Designer 3.0 or higher allows you to communicate with multiple RTI
control processors from one remote. You even have the ability to communicate with
multiple control processors from within a single macro. The process to do this is as
follows:
Step 1
Place all control processors as well as the remote(s) that will be communicating with them, into one
system file of the TheaterTouch software.
Step 2
Establish a default system controller for each remote in the system file. To do this, right click on the
remote icon in the system workspace, and select "Properties". Next, select the "Output" tab. You will
see a pull down menu that allows you to select the default controller which the remote will be
communicating with. Click OK when you have selected the appropriate control prcoessor.
Step 3
You can overide the default setting by right clicking on any button(s) of the remote, and selecting the
"Properties" menu. Next, select the "Output" tab. You can now overide the default controller settings
by selecting an alternate controller for the selected button(s) to communicate with. Click OK when
finished.
Addressing Multiple Control Processors within a single macro
To send commands to multiple RTI control processors with one button press, follow the instructions
below:
1. Left click on the control processor you with to place a command onto. This will bring the
programming window to the forfront. Next click "add new system macro", and label the description of
the macro's function. Next, left click on the macro window to the left of the description. Place the
commands you wish to have be sent from this control processor in the macro editing window. Click
OK when finished. Repeat this process on any other control processors in the system.
2. Right click on the button of the remote you wish to create the macro, which will send commands to
multiple processors. Select the "Propeties" menu, followed by "Output". Change the output type to
standalone for this button. Click OK. Next, right click on this same button and select "Create Macro".
When the macro editor opens, select "system macro" from the command type list. You will see the
option of selecting the appropriate control processor, followed by system macros that exist on the
selected processor. You can drag the appropraite system macros from each processor into the macro.
The remote will now send out trigger codes to the appropriate control processor.
