Paul,
Not sure anything is going to be fast enough to just trap and fire. The
TTS is already on the network by the time the receiving control device
has got it.

You could use Floorplan to trap the TTS and use a script to turn on the
CAV6's input using some sort of output device, maybe even the HV.
Assuming you could target the xAP TTS then you could target Floorplan,
send the output command, wait a second (or less), and then send the xAP
TTS with the 'right' target.

That does assume you are running FP as well as HV ;-)
