Hey Heath,
Here is what is happening, I have a tried and true structure for my programing which uses a simple crosspoint configuration. I have 4 rooms and 5 sources. Any of the rooms can view any of the sources. The actual switching of the Audio and Video is done outside of the crosspoint but the control signals for the sources are what is passed through. The system was working just fine when I left it but they had a power outage and when the unit came back up, the crosspoint didn't work. Now here is the weird part, after about 15 minutes, it started working again. So, being the typical tech, I tried to break it again by causing a power outage and, when the system came back up, the crosspoint was indeed busted. The problem is, it never came back this time. I had this problem once before but it was being caused by one of the TPMC-4X units. That is why I think it may be the TSW-750's.

Are you having trouble with getting them to talk (which has been covered to exhaustion) or are you experiencing a failure of connection?
I've experienced a couple of random crosspoint disconnects in a system. It's running on a CP3, and it's a crosspoint that is designed to only connect at program start and never change. I've had it happen twice that I'm aware of. Signals just stop coming out of an ECROSS.
What I'm doing to trace it down: I put a user event logger along side each of these crosspoints, and I fed the connection$ from the crosspoint into it. Next time the client calls and says "room x doesn't have sound", I can check the log just to make sure that something isn't accidentally breaking the connection by attaching to it. Hopefully I'll decode what it is. I can't find anything in my program that should allow this to happen, but since some of my crosspoint IDs are computed with ASUM and such, there might be a little mistake.
I'm pretty confident that it's actually a bug, but I won't waste additional time chasing it after the next hiccup. I'll just make it reconnect every time a zone comes alive or...

I know this has probably already been discussed to the point of exhaustion but I cant find anything that speaks to this issue. The problem that I am having is that my Crosspoint has stopped working. I have 2 iPads and 2 TSW-750's in the system and everything else works but the signals that are distributed via the crosspoint function. Can anyone give me some type of direction with respect to this? I have a feeling it has something to do with the TSW-750's.
Thanks,
