RGBlink mini

This module was initially created for the mini device. However, some actions have been tested with the mini, others with the mini-edge SDI. Some actions are also expected to work on the mini+, mini-pro, and other models. See the table below for specific details.

Devices must be controlled over a network — USB control is NOT supported.

Available Actions

Action	Description	Declarative API Compatibility (** API Specifications)	Test results with mini (*1)	Test results with mini-edge SDI (*2)
Switch signal source	Similar to pressing the 1/2/3/4/5 source button on the device. 5th input is in BETA.	mini (1);<br/>mini-pro (2);<br/>mini Series: mini-pro, mini-pro v3, mini-ISO (3)	🟩 OK	🟨 Works but causes issues
Switch mode (T-BAR/Auto)	Choose between T-BAR or Auto mode for switching.	mini (1);<br/>mini-pro (2);<br/>mini Series: mini-pro, mini-pro v3, mini-ISO (3)	🟩 OK	🟩 OK
Select source and target	Combines <span style="color:gray">Switch signal source</span> and <span style="color:gray">Switch mode (T-BAR/Auto)</span>. 5th input is in BETA.	See details for combined actions	🟨 As I remember, it works, but setting PGM also sets PST	⬜ Not tested yet
BETA: Performs a transition between Program and Preview	Performs a transition between Program and Preview (TAKE/CUT)	Take mentioned in mini-pro (2);<br/>Q Series:Q16pro Gen2 1U, FLEX Series:FLEXpro 16,FLEXpro 4 (3);<br/> mini-edge SDI (email) (4)	⬜ Not tested yet	🟩 OK
BETA: Switch signal source (PST or PGM)	Switch the selected signal to PST or PGM. Likely a better alternative to <span style="color:gray">Select source and target</span>, but untested on mini.	mini Series: mini-pro, mini-pro v3, mini-ISO (3) (Note: PST command is the same as Switch signal source, which is compatible with mini/mini-pro)	⬜ Not tested yet	🟩 OK
Set switch effect	Set a transition effect, such as cut or fade. See hardware manual or presets for more.	mini (1);<br/>mini-pro (2);<br/>mini Series: mini-pro, mini-pro v3, mini-ISO (3)	🟩 OK	⬜ Not tested yet
BETA: Load scene/view to Preview (PVM)	Load saved earlier scene/view to Preview	mini-pro (2);<br/>mini-edge SDI (email) (4)	⬜ Not tested yet	🟩 OK
Select PIP mode	Select picture-in-picture mode (off, center, top, bottom, left, right, etc.).	mini (1);<br/>mini-pro (2);<br/>mini Series: mini-pro, mini-pro v3, mini-ISO (3)	🟩 OK	🟥 Not reccomended
Select PIP layer (A or B)	Select the PIP layer before setting the signal source.	Undocumented	🟩 OK	🟥 Not reccomended
Build PIP from selected sources	Set PIP mode, select two sources and output (Live or Preview). Combines <span style="color:gray">Select PIP mode</span>, <span style="color:gray">Select PIP layer (A or B)</span>, and <span style="color:gray">Switch signal source</span>.	See details for combined actions	🟩 OK	🟥 Not reccomended
BETA: Switch input signal channel (HDMI/SDI)	Select the input channel (HDMI or SDI) for numbered inputs, if supported by hardware.	mini Series: mini-ISO, mini-edge SDI, mini-mx SDI (3)	⬜ Not tested yet	🟩 OK
BETA: Set T-BAR position	Set the T-BAR position to MIN or MAX.	mini Series: mini-pro, mini-pro v3, mini-ISO (3)	⬜ Not tested yet	🟩 OK
BETA: Set AFV (Audio Follow Video)	Enable or disable AFV for selected input	mini Series: mini-pro, mini-pro v3, mini-ISO (3)	⬜ Not tested yet	🟩 OK
