Can I use SMPTE or FSK to start the script on the 18R2?

Yes, you can use SMPTE time code to start a script if you have the COBRA SMPTE Adapter. For more information on SMPTE please see SMPTE User Guide, and for SMPTE script examples please see Can I reference some example scripts?

Currently, COBRA does not support FSK on the 18R2 controller. However, this is planned for the near future.
