Using Elgato Stream Deck with Viz Trio?

Is anyone using a Elgato Stream Deck with Trio? We haven't been able to get it to work -- can't even fire off a simple key command. Deck works fine in other apps on the same machine. Any ideas?

Trio 3.2.6
 
Answering my own question here in case it helps anyone in the future.

Bitfocus Companion needs to be used to get this to work. The commands must be set to tcp-udp instead of internal. Change the command end character (in Companion) to CRLF - \r\n (Common Windows). In order to fire off Trio macros from Stream Deck, you'll need to hit the macro on the keyboard, then call up the Commands window to see what the actual command is that was fired off. Copy that command and paste it into the Command area of Companion.

We weren't able to get the deck talking to Trio without going through Companion.
 
There is also a free plug-in now in the Stream Deck store named "Command Sender" that will send TCP commands to the Trio port.

need to end the commands with \r\n (with no space)
If you already have the macros or scripts in Trio just use

main:call_macro MACRONAME_HERE\r\n
 
If you started Trio with admin rights, the Stream Deck link on the desktop must also be started with admin rights. Otherwise, Windows will block the transfer of shortcuts.
