node-red-contrib-emberplus

Simple Ember+ client node for broadcast automation (LAWO, DHD, etc.). Ember+ is open source and implemented in hard- and software products. More information can be found here: Ember+ control protocol

emberplus-server node

First of all there is at least one emberplus-server node to be configured. Simply set an IP address and a port (usually 9000). It is possible to add several emberplus-server nodes for different targets (for example all your audio mixers).

emberplus node

Each emberplus node is associated with a previously configured emberplus-server node. Further an object path can be selected if the node should subscribe a specific object in the Ember+ tree. If you don't know the path, click on the looking glass symbol on the right.

Input Pin

The input pin of the node takes two types of message payloads:

• msg.payload takes the plain value to be set to the specified path. Example:

true

• msg.payload contains path and value to the specified node. Example:

{"full":{"path":"0.1.0","value":true}}

Output Pin

The data format of the output pin can be configured:

• plain: msg.payload contains the plain value from the Ember+ object
• contents: msg.payload.contents contains the contents Ember+ object from the underlying node-emberplus client
• full: msg.payload.full contains the full Ember+ object from the underlying node-emberplus (including the device path)

If needed the inital state may be sent by clicking a corresponding checkbox.
