Go to the Pixera Timeline tab.

Add a cue on the timeline where you would like Event Master frame to be trigged.

Select the cue and adjust the network command in the inspector, on the right hand side of the screen, as per the screenshot below.

Add an action in the “SENDER” module in Control tab for each preset you would like to trigger from the timeline  and repeat the setup for each action.

In the future there will be a way to pass a number from Timeline  cue to the  Control without creating an action for every preset in the “Sender” module.
