CLAMM (Command Line Argument Media Matrix)
The command line syntax ( CLAMM ( Command Line Argument MediaMatrix )) for pavcon.exe has been enhanced as follows:
|
pavcon <filename> |
open <filename> |
|
pavcon /open <filename> |
open <filename> |
|
pavcon /compile <filename> |
open and compile <filename> |
|
pavcon /switch <filename> |
open and compile <filename> close others |
|
pavcon /decompile |
stops the sound engine |
|
pavcon /help |
Launch the help system and point to the optional specified topic |
|
pavcon /presetload <number> |
loads the specified preset |
|
pavcon /subpresetload <number> |
loads the specified subpreset |
|
pavcon /controlSet <groupName> <value> |
sets the <groupname> control group to <value> |
These operations are only allowed if the currently logged on user has the necessary privilege. You can specify a different user and password by adding the following:
/user <username> /password <password>
These operations can be scheduled using the Windows NT Schedule Service or by using the newer Scheduled Task Folder.
The following applies only to using the Default NT "at" scheduler service. To find out how to install the newer Task Scheduler Folder, see this topic.
Using CLAMM with the Windows NT AT Scheduler Service
The AT service is only available within NT. Windows 2000 ships with the Scheduled Task Folder already installed (Scheduled Task Folder replaces the AT service). NOTE: If you are using NT and currently have events added to the AT database, those are imported and converted to the new event type upon installing the Scheduled Task Folder.
Type 'at /?' for help on scheduling. Better yet, use WinAT which is available in the NT Resource Kit. Note that the /interactive command needs to be specified for CLAMM to work.
Here is an example that uses the Window NT Schedule Service to schedules the system to load preset 3 at 1:10pm every Monday and Wednesday. You must edit the properties of the Load button in the Preset 3 device and enable Control Grouping with the group name "preset 3" for this to work. And obviously if the software is installed in a different directory you must make the appropriate changes in the path below:
C:\winnt>at 13:10 /interactive /every:monday,wednesday
"c:\Program Files\MediaMatrix 3.0\pavcon.exe" /controlSet "preset
3" 1
Added a new job with job ID = 1
