Lua Redirect() Function with AC2

Hi Guys

Any help would be appreciated.

I have successfully been using the Redirect() function to map my C-Bus custom application 57 to the corresponding trigger group. Now I have two networks and this function doesn't seem to be working for the second network (253).

Where can I find more information on this LUA Redirect function so I can work through this issue?

Cheers

Hi Noyzey,

The Redirect() function was not actually a standard function of the inbuilt LUA libraries, and instead was apart of the Application Redirector module out of the project services team many many years ago (I should know, I wrote it).

This module was created to get around the limitation of not having the Track Group functions that were available in PICED. Fortunately, since then, a Track Group function has now been included.

-- Make group 'MeetingRoom1' on application 'Lighting1' in network 'Local1' and group 'MeetingRoom2' on application 'Lighting2' in network 'Local2' track each other.
TrackGroup2('Local1', 'Lighting1', 'MeetingRoom1', 'Local2', 'Lighting2', 'MeetingRoom2')
​

Failing this, you could always create an event based script on the group you wish to forward and use the following code

grp.write("0/202/1", event.getvalue())

This will take the value of the group that triggered this script and forward it to the trigger group of your choice.
