I can't speak for the Device Usage serial, as I've never had occasion to (or a client request to) use it, but for the ErrorMsg, the required format is listed in the Help File, namely...

"Sends a formatted error message to RoomView, which displays a different icon in the Log field depending on the severity of the error. (When the operator clicks the error icon, a log file displays all logged events for the selected room.) The string must be formatted as follows: <error severity>:<msg> Where <error severity> is a severity code ranging from 0 to 4, and <msg> is the error message. Error codes are defined as follows: 0 = OK 1 = Notice 2 = Warning 3 = Error 4 = Fatal Error If the error string is not formatted correctly, RoomView assigns a default severity to the error and logs the entire string.

Subject: [Crestron] Fusion RoomView DeviceUsage Serial Attribute Hi Everyone, I am trying to configure various control systems we have to send information to fusion roomview using the default attributes that are in the roomview module itself, as well as some custom attributes we have made. Most seem to be OK, but we can't trigger reports from the 'DeviceUsage' serial attribute that you can send roomview through the roomview module (either version 7 or 8). I was wondering if anyone had made alot of use of this serial string back to roomview and knew if you have to construct the string in a certain way for the roomview server to adequatley process it for reports? In a similar way maybe to how the 'errormessage' serial string has to be constructed in a certain way? Any advice or experience you've had would be really great! I'm not sure if this should work or not! Cheers! ------------------------------------ Check out the Files area for useful modules, documents, and drivers.
