I just saw this thread. http://www.controlbooth.com/forums/scenery-props-rigging/27822-grand-curtain-motorization.html
When I was thinking that my schools main curtain is motorized as is. There used to be a open and close button running up the the lighting booth. (Now that wiring is for a closed circut phone system) The curtain control has three buttons a Open, Close, and Stop. Is there any way I could use dmx addressing to issue a event. Basically a press of the button but with dmx. I have seen similar solutions that can trigger key on a keyboard using a decoder. Could the same principle be applied to this. If can someone point me in the right direction for accomplishing this.
The reasoning for this is that we only have a Sound (Me), and Light Operator. Full time and finding someone to open a curtain a few times during a show is a big deal.
