QSC SL-QSE
QSC SL-QSE Q-SYS Scripting Engine
Create custom graphical user interfaces (ICUs) on the Q-SYS platform. Design something very simple and focused on automation, or create complex monitoring screens to make adjustments and solve problems. This tool is intended for system designers who need to create the ideal user experience or IT administrators who need to make minor changes or add additional features to ICU designs.
Use the Command Buttons control component to send simple, one-way communication strings (via TCP, UDP or Serial) to a third-party device
QSC offers sample designs for common conference room scenarios, which are preinstalled along with Q-SYS
Designer Software. They provide a good starting point for a medium conference room, including suggested I/O
configuration, gain structure, EQ blocks, VoIP and a basic user control interface.
Q-SYS offers a library of third-party control plugins for a number of common devices that can be quickly added to your system design via Designer Asset Manager, a cloud-based tool available with Q-SYS Designer Software. Learn about some of the available plugins:
Features
- Third-Party Control Plugins/Scripts – Take advantage of a library of useful plugins and control scripts for some of the most commonly used elements of today’s modern conference room (with many more currently under development by QSC and by third-party device manufacturers). Plugins are designed to easily integrate third-party devices with the Q-SYS Ecosystem in a matter of minutes.
- Full Featured Scripting Component – Integrate anything from the simplest function to the most complex control scenario imaginable. Create custom scripts using modern, accessible scripting languages including Lua, an open-source, IT friendly programming language.
- Visual Coding Tool – The new Block Controller component offers a drag-and-drop method for building control scripts within Q-SYS. Based on a concept originally developed by Google and MIT, this open source visual programming tool uses interlocking, graphical blocks to represents common programming concepts. It enables easy composition of sophisticated scripts, especially for novice programmers.
About Q-SYS Feature Licenses
Rather than requiring costly dedicated hardware and costly integration to achieve your system control needs, Q-SYS is able to provide more robust control capabilities to its existing audio and video capabilities, at the software layer through optional feature licenses, which are routinely updated with new features and capabilities through cryptographically signed firmware updates.
Characteristic
- No programming experience required: Build robust UCI screens by simply dragging any DSP or control element from the Q-SYS schematic into the UCI Editor.
- Advanced visual style: Create buttons with custom graphics for active/inactive/pressed states (QDS v. 7 and higher); use page transitions and screen pops; import custom backgrounds and company logos (in graphic formats, including .png, .jpg, .svf, and .gif) and much more.
- Hassle-free deployment: Whether it’s a single ICU or hundreds of ICUs throughout the enterprise facility, installing ICUs on native Q-SYS touchscreens will always be simple and one-button operation.

Whether you need to control native or third-party devices, Q-SYS makes it easy to build custom user control interfaces (UCIs) for your customers. With simple drag-and-drop controls, there is no need for any programming experience.
