| + | === Configuring devices === | ||
| + | Some devices can be configured via scripts, e.g., the current receiver (and version) can be changed, MultiFiBa and Filterbox can be configured: | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | # Receiver commands | ||
| + | FE: P50mm; VERn 2; Frequency 6.0 | ||
| + | FE: S110mm; VERn 1; Frequency 2.6 | ||
| + | |||
| + | # MultiFiBa | ||
| + | MF:S99128 | ||
| + | MF:A03@100 | ||
| + | |||
| + | # Filterbox | ||
| + | FB:spare1 | ||
| + | FB:spare2 | ||
| + | # note: currently, only spare1/spare2 setups are possible, these also set certain bandwidths at the XFFTS, | ||
| + | # so only use this if you know what you're doing! | ||

| - | Now one can call ''@masterscript:W3MAIN'' from any form, and it will correctly replace the sources. If it is called without source name, ObsInp will use the sources it finds in the root scripts (it doesn't work, if the masterscript still contains source names). | + | Now one can call ''@masterscript:W3MAIN'' from any form, and it will correctly replace the sources.
