As said, I don't have any manual of the XTouch - I am afraid you need to contact the vendor of the XTouch to ask what exact MIDI message or syssex message (exact order of bytes) to send in order to display that value.
You can then use either the EXEC_SEND_MIDI_SHORTMSG or the EXEC_SEND_MIDI_SYSEXMSG command to send it.

We don't understand :) When I use the $(mixeroutput1gain) macro and send my SysEx command to Xtouch, I get an @ at the display (If value is 0). When I put the macro in quotation marks, I get 64 at the display.

${Outputmixer1name} works and displays the text correctly.

The ${outputmixer1gain} returns the 1st mixer channel gain as a string (-15.0…15.0).
So maybe you need to add the "dB" value in addition.

Else, as said, please clarify with the XTouch vendor what exact values are expected?!
I don't know how should help here, as I don't know the syntax of the XTouch - only the vendor knows!

I contacted Behringer at several times ... Answers: Hi, Petr. Unfortunately the X-Touch is dependant on how developers have implemented the Mackie protocol in their software. This means it is up to the developers of that software to ensure compatibility. "Hi George,
well, but at least the sysex message header that displays the text on the display is given." Good afternoon, Petr. Unfortunately this isn't possible with the X-Touch. There is no Sysex command for this. ...
and then you will find that is possible!

In my opinion, it only requires "1", "2", "-1", "-2" - clear string... Anything else I add to it...

If the return value is string, why does 64 appear instead of "0"?
