With more than around 250 modules of either Level Control or On-Off Control, we find out some problem in the 'Send Name' logic (not sure if problem was solve with version 7.4). If not too late or too hard, try to replace 7.2 modules in your program by the Biamp AudiaFlex v3 (TA).zip posted in the Files section. They was design to handle up to 2000 controls on the same Biamp processor and have been intensively tested with succes with 1101 controls and RS-232 at 38400/8/1/N.
Just tie together 'Timed_Out' and 'Send_Next', don't use (comment out) 'Name_Timed_out' and 'Get_Next_Name' and pulse Get_next_Name a few second after reboot.
We also used 7.4 version with less than 250 controls without problem.

Subject line says it all. I have to revisit a job tomorrow where we have Biamp controlled serially (7.2 vintage modules). This was a new install last year. After some months of it being in operation, the client is finding that after some days of not using the system, when they next try to use it, all control of Biamp has quit and they've taken to rebooting the Crestron processor (Rack2) and this gets it back.
I'm looking at the program now and I see that it's connected to a C2-COM3 card in the rack 2. Isn't there some lingering lockup problem using this card? Could this be a symptom? Turns out I do have a spare Slot4 ports unused, so I could easily switch.
Thanks in advance for any advice
