LOGIC MAESTRO
INTRODUCTION
The Logic Maestro facility in ECS is a separately licensable option
which allows control sequences to be generated using the Logic
Maestro visual programming interface. The facility to create and edit
control sequence scripts directly is also available in the option via the
Control Macro editor.
Control sequences allow the configuration that controls matrix
operation to be directly modified to carry out specific actions when
triggered. Each control sequence contains a series of commands with
each defined command representing an action carried out on an object
in the configuration. An object may be a port, an input or output device
or label.
The main use of control sequences is to select controls which have
already been configured using ECS and modify the actions that they
trigger when activated.
Each defined control sequence is named and can have multiple input s
and outputs and combination logic. These sequences take the form of
actions to be associated with inputs, and the Logic Maestro editor will
assist the author by providing an overview of available actions and the
parameters each requires in order to perform the required function.
Logic elements are available (e.g. AND, NAND, OR, NOR), with
tooltips supplied by the Logic Maestro editor.
It is possible that more than one control sequence in a configuration
generated using Logic Maestro or the Control Macros editor may target
the same action such as loudspeaker cut on a panel. This may result
in one control overriding the effect of another control. For example, if
two controls request loudspeaker cut on a panel, if one of the controls
cancels the action it will be cancelled for both regardless of whether
the other control has cancelled the action. Care should be taken to
ensure that multiple controls do not target the same action to avoid
unexpected results when multiple control sequences operate on the
same action.

CONTROL SEQUENCE PROPERTIES
Enabled Checkbox
The checkbox in the leftmost column of the control sequence list
determines whether the Logic Maestro control sequence is saved with
the system configuration in the database. If the box is checked the
control sequence will be saved with the configuration; if it is not
checked it will not be saved with the configuration and therefore will not
be downloaded to the matrix with the configuration.
Edit Logic Column
The ‘Edit Logic’ column contains links to the source for the selected
control sequence. Clicking on the link will open the logic design
window and display the selected control sequence in the design pane.

LOGIC PROGRAMMING
Logic Maestro allows control sequences to be created and edited by
dragging and dropping logic elements and library modules onto a
layout and connecting them. Configuration elements are then added
to the module library elements by dragging and drop ping them onto the
appropriate areas of the module library elements to define the items
that are to be used in the control sequence.
The toolbar allows the user to Undo and Redo changes, zoom in or out
of the view, simulate inputs to the logic design, vary the speed of
simulation and refresh the view.
To start a new project click on the ‘New’ tab and enter the project
information into the dialogue screen and click on ‘OK’. The control
logic layout screen is then opened.
Clear-Com Communication Systems
Eclipse Logic Maestro Instruction Manual
Figure 1-11: Logic Maestro Interface
Configuration elements are devices present in the target configuration
(the configuration that the control sequence will be part of). These are
divided into Control Inputs, Control Outputs, Directs/Interfaces, Fixed
Groups and Panels. To select a configuration element click on the
group the required configuration element belongs to and a list of all the
elements in that category will be displayed in the configuratio n element
pane.
Comments can be added to the control sequence design in two ways:
• Placing the mouse pointer over the design pane but not over a design
element and right clicking will create a free-floating comment box that
can be edited with the text of the comment. Double click on the
comment box to highlight and edit the comment text. Free floating
comments can be moved around the design panel using the mouse.
• Placing the mouse pointer over the title of a library module or over a
logic element and right clicking will open a drop down menu of
1-9
options. Selecting ‘Add Comment’ will create a comment attached to
the module or logic element. Double click on the comment box to
highlight and edit the comment text. Attached comments can be
moved around the design panel using the mouse but will always
remain connected to the target item.
Figure 1-12: List of Configuration Elements
In the case of devices with talk and listen labels both labels are
displayed in the list in the format ‘talk label’,’listen label’. Devices that
do not have talk and listen labels are identified by name.
Logic elements can be dragged into the design pane and placed for
connection to other elements.
To connect a control input to a logic element simply place the mouse
pointer over the connection point on the control input, left click and
hold, and drag the connection to the required connection point on the
logic element and release the mouse button. The same process is
used to connect the output from a logic element to a control output.

Figure 1-13: Example Control Sequence
Click on the ‘Simulate’ button on the toolbar to test the logic for errors.
When simulation mode is active double clicking with the left mouse
button on a logic input will invert the current state of the input unless it
is an enable or disable logic element. When an element in the design
is off it is colored dark grey , when o n it is white. Setting an input to true
allows the result of the logic design to be checked.
The speed of the simulation can be set to normal, divided by ten or
divided by forty by clicking on the ‘Speed’ button on the toolbar and
selecting the required speed from the menu. The slower speeds allo w
the design to be checked for race conditions that might occur if there
are multiple paths between elements with dif ferent time delays in them.
Right clicking on a control sequence element will open a drop down
menu allowing the element to be deleted, cut or copied. A comment
can also be added. In the case of logic elements the type of logic
element can also be changed.

MODULE LIBRARY
The module library provides control items which can be programmed
with physical devices such as panel keys, direct interfaces and control
labels. The physical items are then acted upon by the control items to
create logic inputs and outputs, create a udio p aths or change the st ate
of panel hardware.
Control Input
Control inputs are used to provide inputs to the control sequence when
a control is active. The control inputs are triggered by controls set up
in ECS by the Control Manager and are usually General Purpose
Inputs (GPIs). These may be attached to devices such as
footswitches. Controls set up in ECS using the Control Manager may
also be assigned to keys under Panel Programming. In this case
activating the panel key will act as a control input.
To set up a control input drag and drop a ‘Control I/P’ module from the
‘Module Library’ onto the design pane.
Figure 1-14: Control Input Module
To add a control click on the ‘Controls’ menu to open it and display the
‘Add control’ item.

Alternatively control labels can be dragged and dropped directly onto
the unexpanded ‘Controls’ menu and they will be added to the controls
list.
Multiple control labels can be added to the control input module to
create a list of control labels that will activate the logic input from the
control input module.
Figure 1-17: Added Further Controls to a Control Input
Dragging and dropping a control label on top of a label already in the
controls list will replace that item with the new control label.
Items on the control list can be selected by left clicking on the items;
multiple items can be selected by holding down the shift key while left
clicking on the items to select them. Right clicking on the selected
control item or items will open a menu giving the options to Copy, Cut
or Delete the items. Alternatively the entire list can be copied by
right-clicking on the unexpanded controls menu and selecting ‘’Copy
this Control list’.

Click on ‘Insert Comment’ to add a free-floating comment as described
previously.
Control Input Operation
If any of the controls on the list are activated then the control input
module will be set to an active output. The same eff ect can be created
by using multiple control inputs and combining them using ‘OR’ gates
but whereas ‘OR’ gates introduce a 25ms processing delay combining
multiple controls in a list does not introduce a processing delay.

Control Output
Control outputs are used to activate outputs when the input state is
true. To set up a control output drag and drop a ‘Control O/P’ module
from the ‘Module Library’ onto the design pane.
