all i want is that the maestro starts any of lets say 5 sequences randomly or in order if i push a button once. So start any sequence and stop if finsh and wait for next push of the button.
if i do 2 sequences and send all sequences to skript, run sequence it is starting first seq. than stop with failure overflow.
i dont know how to get the buttons commands right. chat gpt for helping me is always telling commands maestro dont know.
# Include a loop to wait for the button press
begin
begin
button wait_for_button
repeat
# Once the button is pressed, start the sequence
500 7882 0 0 0 0 frame_1..5 # Frame 0
500 4653 frame_1 # Frame 1
500 7549 frame_1 # Frame 2
500 4927 frame_1 # Frame 3
repeat
sub frame_1..5
5 servo
4 servo
3 servo
2 servo
1 servo
delay
return
sub frame_1
1 servo
delay
return
got this so far so good. button works and sequence work. now how to tell the programm to run for example another sequence if pushing the same button again?
goto main_loop # Run the main loop when the script starts (see below).
# This subroutine returns 1 if the button is pressed, 0 otherwise.
# To convert the input value (0-1023) to a digital value (0 or 1) representing
# the state of the button, we make a comparison to an arbitrary threshold (500).
# This subroutine puts a logical value of 1 or a 0 on the stack, depending
# on whether the button is pressed or not.
sub button
0 get_position 500 less_than
return
# This subroutine uses the BUTTON subroutine above to wait for a button press,
# including a small delay to eliminate noise or bounces on the input.
sub wait_for_button_press
wait_for_button_open_10ms
wait_for_button_closed_10ms
return
# Wait for the button to be NOT pressed for at least 10 ms.
sub wait_for_button_open_10ms
get_ms # put the current time on the stack
begin
# reset the time on the stack if it is pressed
button
if
drop get_ms
else
get_ms over minus 10 greater_than
if drop return endif
endif
repeat
# Wait for the button to be pressed for at least 10 ms.
sub wait_for_button_closed_10ms
get_ms
begin
# reset the time on the stack if it is not pressed
button
if
get_ms over minus 10 greater_than
if drop return endif
else
drop get_ms
endif
repeat
# An example of how to use wait_for_button_press is shown below:
# Uses WAIT_FOR_BUTTON_PRESS to allow a user to step through
# a sequence of positions on servo 1.
main_loop:
begin
wait_for_button_press
500 4183 0 0 0 0 frame_1..5 # Frame 0
500 7588 frame_1 # Frame 1
500 4770 frame_1 # Frame 2
500 7549 frame_1 # Frame 3
500 4222 frame_1 # Frame 4
500 7354 frame_1 # Frame 5

What you have right now looks like a good start, but the script you posted looks incomplete (i.e. it calls subroutines named frame_1..5 and frame_1, but you did not include their definition). Could you post a copy of your Maestro settings file, which will give me a more complete idea of what you’re doing? You can save a copy of your settings file from the “File” drop-down menu of the Maestro Control Center while the controller is connected.
My goal is to address as many, maybe 5 sequences as possible with just one button. If possible, in a fixed order.
So, button is pressed but not held, sequence 1 runs, after the end button is pressed, sequence 2 runs, etc.
It looks like you only have one sequence right now. If you want the Maestro to wait for a button press before each frame of your sequence, you can call wait_for_button_press in between each frame in your main loop, like this:
Otherwise, if you just haven’t created the other sequences yet in the Sequence tab, I suggest doing that first. Then you can delete everything after your main loop in your script and use the “Copy all Sequences to Script” button in the Sequence tab, which will generate subroutines for each sequence. At that point you can rewrite your mail loop to call the sequence subroutines like this:
If you try either of those and have problems getting it to work, please post an updated settings file and a description of what it’s doing wrong and I would be happy to take a look.
It looks like you are putting the wait_for_button_press calls before the subroutine definitions, instead of within a BEGIN/REPEAT loop. To clarify, your main BEGIN/REPEAT loop should go between the main_loop: tag and the ### Sequence subroutines: ### comment, like this.
main_loop:
begin
#your wait_for_button_press code goes here
repeat
### Sequence subroutines: ###
