Remote Trigger Guide

The remote trigger is a feature designed for use with other equipment, enabling remote commands such as recording and stopping to be sent or received over the network to control other devices.

Remote Trigger Receiver/Sender Support

  • Receiver Modes: YanusLIVE, XEROmotion, Xsens, OptiTrack.

  • Sender Mode: YanusLIVE.

  • Supports starting/stopping recordings in OBS Studio and HyperDeck, as well as setting filenames via Trigger.

1. Remote Trigger Setting

In the YanusLIVE settings menu, simply select the software to trigger from the "Remote Trigger Receiver" or "Remote Trigger Sender" options, and specify the port. Once this is done, the setup is complete.

Settings: Network > Remote Trigger

2. Trigger Mode

In the OBS Studio or HyperDeck window of YanusLIVE, check the box for Receiver or Sender in the Trigger option to activate the function.

Check the "Receiver" Trigger option to enable UDP reception. Verify events through the log display under "Values".

If the "Sender" option under Trigger is checked, pressing the Record button broadcasts an XML message type trigger to the configured port within the same network.

This is the XML message from YanusLIVE Trigger Sender. It is similar to other devices, but variables related to synchronization may be added in the future.
