This method can be used instead of creating a transmap image.
If you are trying to make a specific material invisible or transparent that uses an image map.
Add a Math function to the Transparency node.
Set it to 1. Change the Argument type to Floor or Round or Bias.
Connect the out of the Value 1 to the Image Map.
This will use the Image Map to create a black/white output (mask) to hide it.
This is a short cut instead of having to create a transmap image.
