Output Events

Output events let the DMX Core 100 send notifications to external systems when specific actions occur. For example, you can send an MQTT message when a cue starts playing, or make an HTTP request when a schedule triggers.

Creating an Output Event

  1. In the Web UI, go to Settings > Output Events
  2. Click Add to create a new event
  3. Configure the trigger condition — what system event should fire this output
  4. Set the output type and destination
  5. Click Save

Output Types

Output events can send notifications via:

  • MQTT — Publish a message to an MQTT topic
  • HTTP — Make an HTTP request to an external URL
  • Serial — Send data over a serial port

Use Cases

  • Notify a building management system when lighting changes
  • Trigger actions in other IoT devices via MQTT
  • Log lighting events to an external system
  • Synchronize with other AV equipment
