Control Components
3. Control Components
3.1. Control Methods for Control Components
Control components can be divided into three broad types.
3.1.1. Trigger-type control components:
Trigger-type components are used primarily to output control signals through the operation of knobs, buttons, etc. and to use those signals to control other components, or to execute desired processes by sending control signals to processing-type components.
(It is also possible to move a controller by inputting a control signal.)
For trigger-type components, there are three types of controllers (Fader, Button, Radio Button) and two types of data types (Value, Normalized Value) for the control signal output for each (control signal input to the controlled component), for a total of six types of components.
The following example (Fader) explains how to use this list.
The fader control component can send continuous value control signals to the target component.
-
Control Parameter ( Red outline ):
The name of the port used to output the controller change notification (Output Port Name) and the controller parameter type (Trigger/Processing). In addition, the name of the input port used to externally control the controller (Input Port Name) is also listed. -
Output Value ( Green outline ):
Data type and range of output values that are output when the controller is operated.
(Example) Fader (Normalized)
3.1.2. Processing-type control components:
Processing-type components output the result of specific processing in response to an input control signal. The DME7 provides components for each of these process types.
The following example (NOT) explains how to use this list.
The NOT control component is a control component that inverts the input value (OFF:0, ON:1).
-
Control Parameter ( Red outline ):
The name of the port for input data for the Processing process (Input Port Name), the name of the port for notification of the result of the Processing process (Output Port Name), and the controller parameter type (Trigger/Processing). -
Input Value ( Blue outline ):
Recommended data types and ranges for Processing process input values. -
Output Value ( Green outline ):
Data type and range of the output value of the Processing process results.
(Example) NOT (Normalized Value)
3.1.3. Other：
Components of types other than the two described above (trigger type and processing type).
3.2. Input (Normalized Value): Button
Switching the Button’s on/off state causes output of the specified value (normalized value).

2: Input value 2 (–20,000 to 20,000), (−∞ to 10.00)
OUTPUT
Out 1: Outputs ON:1 when the channel 1 input value is the largest/smallest value. Outputs 0 for all other cases.
Out 2: Outputs ON:1 when the channel 2 input value is the largest/smallest value. Outputs 0 for all other cases.

3.24. Controller: GPI In
Converts signals input from GPI IN into control signals that can be handled by the Control layer.
For the input from each GPI In connector (16 connectors), a continuous value (normalized from 0 to 1) is output from each output port.
There are two GPI Input setting methods.
-
Configure the settings in the GPI Input dialog that opens from the [Tools] button on the device sheet.
Try this method to execute a single function using the input from a single [GPI IN] connector. -
Add the GPI Input component to the Control layer of the device sheet and set it using in the Component Editor.
Try this method if you want to control multiple parameters/functions simultaneously by input from a single [GPI IN] connector, or if you want to combine control components to create complex operations.
* GPI Input is configured simultaneously by dialog setting and by the GPI Input component of the Control layer.
3.24.1. ”GPI Input” component editor
The input GPI signal is converted to a normalized value (0 to 1) using the specified method, and is then output.
Refer to the GPI Input dialog in the ProVisionaire Design User Guide for the rest.

Try this method if you are using one operation as a trigger and outputting from a single [GPI OUT] connector. -
Add the GPI Output component to the Control layer of the device sheet and set it using in the Component Editor.
Try this method if you want to use multiple operations as a trigger and want to output them from a single [GPI OUT] connector, or if you want to combine control components to create complex operations.
