Hi Plumbob,
What exactly is your scenario/need of this - and what does your setup look like?
Due to the fact that this is a Vizrt Forum, there is a great chance less people know about Ross Dashboard - and how to use it. Including me.
Best regards!
Chris

I've written a RossTalk plug-in for TriCaster which allows you to send RossTalk commands from the TriCaster macro system. I've had clients use it to control Xpression and Ultrix systems. This plug-in is send only, it doesn't receive back information. The plug-in is available from Vizrt Professional Services.
As for Dashboard, you might be able to get it control TriCaster via sending customized RossTalk commands. To do this, try sending to TCP port 5951, then you need to format the command as XML (which is what TriCaster is looking for). An example is shown below.
I'm guessing that using Dashboard to send the above command will work (but thinking it will). If it does, basically fill in 'main_auto' with appropriate macro shortcut command. You need to add a value, just add value="" in the command.

i was trying to creating a macro for our scoreboard system. The goal is to seamlessly integrate graphics into the display whenever a penalty is incurred during a game and automatically remove them when the penalty time expires. I initially attempted to use a macro but didn’t have any success. I’m now considering whether Dashboard might be a better solution for this task.
