Hi Guys,

Would someone be able to create a simple macro on a Kalypso, save it and post it here (or e-mail me).

I want to have a try and see if I can edit a Kalypso Macro with the Kayenne software prior to a job on Saturday but I don't have access to a Kalypso.

Just some basic PGM cut and disolves and mixing and cutting PGM keyers on and off.  Also inserting pauses in fields/frames/seconds would be good to see if these steps translate over to the Kayenne.

Ta in advance.

David

Here is what I have discovered..

Kayenne and Kalypso macros are somehow formatted a different way.  Kalypso (.GVG) macros will be seen by the Kayenne software but will not allow them to be loaded.

Here is the txt for the .gvg Kayenne macro (Just the PGM CUT button)

HEADER    KAYENNE    Macro
1
SECTION    MACRO    "1"
1
<BEGIN>
#MACRO:V2
PCUT    PGM CUT    PCUT
7 9 0 44 0 0 2 0 0 3 1
#END
<END>

and here is one for a more complex Kalypso .GVG

HEADER    KALYPSO    MACRO
1
SECTION    MACRO    1
1
<BEGIN>
#MACRO:V1
SAT RTD-
7 a 0 7b 0 0 3e 0 0 12 24 0 (DEV CUE)
7 b 0 7c 0 0 77 0 0 0 0 2 2 (Delay 0.2 sec)
7 8 0 44 0 0 8 0 0 33 (PGM Key 4 CUT ON)
7 8 0 2 0 0 3e 0 0 12 (DEV PLAY)
7 b 0 7c 0 0 77 0 0 0 0 10 0 (Delay 16 fields)
7 8 0 44 0 0 3 0 0 3 (PGM CUT BUTTON)
7 b 0 7c 0 0 77 0 0 0 0 18 0 (Delay 24 fields)
7 8 0 44 0 0 8 0 0 33 (PGM Key 4 CUT OFF)
7 8 0 3 0 0 3e 0 0 12 (DEV STOP)
#END
<END>

It would appear that each line is a macro step.

So far I have successfully copied the macro steps from the Kalypso into the Kayenne macro and loaded it in the side panel PC software.  Whether you can then edit in Kayenne, then copy the steps to the Kalypso (resave and reload the Kalypso Macro) is yet to be tried.

The first command is a DEV control and if this translates to Kayenne, is editable, and translates back would be interesting to see.

I am also unsure of this different formatting od the GVG vs the gvg file.  For example, you can't just cut and paste the header from a gvg file to a GVG file.  The Kayenne sees an error and actually deletes the macro.

It would also be interesting to see if there is a list of commands in this RAW  7 8 0 44 etc format that we could make to manually edit these ourselves...
