Re: 2N Automation SendHTTPRequest

 

Thanks Steve - 1 must have been correct.? I changed the port and it has started working.

Apologies for the wasteful post!


Re: Crestron APP thru VPN on T-Mobile

 

Thanks for the ideas, Steve!
Though, I have to say I have not had issues with this until just the last 8-10 days - i.e. something has changed.
Also, re: bandwidth for the app, I don't see it even connect to the processor, which is very low bandwidth so it never gets to pulling the VT file from the processor (Hi Bandwidth)...
Also Also, camera apps like Luma (connecting via the local net thru VPN) still work fine, which I would would think that this uses nore BW than Crestron...
MMMMM....


Re: Tagging People

 
Edited

Is it time to sync my watch again? :)
?
Groups.io was selected because it gives us the ability to have a primarily email based platform.? That comes with some pluses and minuses.? One of the negatives is that some more modern features like tagging people would probably be tricky to implement in a useful manner.? One of the big positives and one of the primary reasons we selected this platform is that we were able to bring along the group's message archive from Yahoo Groups.? I'm honestly not sure that I would want to go through that effort again as it took Tony and I a fair amount of effort to find a reasonable platform that supported bringing the history over and as I recall it took me a decent amount of effort to actually make that migration happen.

Re: 2N Automation SendHTTPRequest

 

Possible reasons

1) 2N or your CP3 is using port 50001 for something else.?

2)? Log into the 2N station and go to "Services>HTTP API" and make sure the service you are trying to use is set to Unsecure (TCP) and Authentication is set to none.


Re: Crestron APP thru VPN on T-Mobile

 

I've seen this all the time with apps and web browsers cannot connect via VPN but connections like SSH do work when connected to hot spot on my phone (also T-Mobile).? I figure it is a bandwidth issues. I know the Crestron Home craps out if there is not enough bandwidth or latency issues. I am sure the Crestron App is the same.? You might try pinging the Crestron processor and running a internet speed test via the vpn on the mobile network.? It will probably land up that both pings are slow and erratic and the bandwidth is poor.


2N Automation SendHTTPRequest

 

Hi all, I am really struggling to get this to work.

I have the Action pointed to the IP address of the CP3. Just xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx but no port.? The event is Motion at the Doorstation.

I have a TCP/IP Server with IP address 0.0.0.0.? Using standard Port 80.
they are not connecting so I cannot receive the event in the CP3.? Should there be different ports set.

I tried xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:50001 in the 2N settings and the same port on the CP3 but again no connection.? Status remains at 1d and ConnectF stays low.

I m sure I am missing something simple but any help appreciated.


Crestron APP thru VPN on T-Mobile

 

Hi All,
Here's a weird issue that I've come across over the last week or so using my iPhone 14 (v17.3.1).?
While connected ONLY via the T-Mobile cell network (New England), known working VPNs will still connect to sites, but the Crestron App will not connect. The processor doesn't even see the IP-ID connections.
If I'm remote (or local) on a Local network/wifi system, I can connect to remote sites normally...? The main variable seems tp be T-Mobile.

has anyone else seen this??


Re: VC4 Server Name Change

 

I figured it out in case anyone else needs to change the server name / hostname on a VC-4 install.

Log into the AlmaLinux OS, go to "Settings", select the "Sharing" button and change the "Computer Name" to the desired name for VC-4. Restart the VC-4 service and it will update the server / hostname accordingly.

Re: Lutron Smart Bridge Pro Caseta switches and Crestron Home

 

FYI, shades on the Caseta will not show up on the Creston Home UI. They show up in the admin interface under the Lutron settings in the room but you cannot see them under shades in the admin UI or the user UI.?

Glad you got it sorted Dean!

Not sure what the serial cable does that @CaseyBenjamin posted earlier as these panels have onboard RS232 that you can connect just about any three conductor copper cable.

Re: Simpl Windows Compile Errors

 

Well this is embarrassing :facepalm!!? @DizzyEgg seems to have nailed it.? Disabled Webroot Antivirus and have compiled three times in a row without issue.? Appreciate the help!!? Thank you @DizzyEgg!!


Re: Simpl Windows Compile Errors

 

It is not specific to ultamation.? I've seen it on any program with S# or S+ modules in it.

Anti-virus is a good call.? I'll look into that.

Re: Simpl Windows Compile Errors

 

Some people have had this because Antivirus somehow has those files in use, you could try disabling your AV quickly to see if it compiles....


Re: Two homes- on SG ipad

 

I've handled this by choosing to not "automatically reconnect to control system" in general app settings.? When the client wants to change houses, simply close the app. (swipe it off the screen) Then the app will open to the setup page, where the multiple residences are listed to be chosen from.? The reserved join to get to the setup page is probably the best way though.


Re: Apple tvOS 17.4 update breaks CEC

 

A good solution for Apple TVs is the Ultamation companion protocol module.? This module is super fast, reliable for years and supports direct app launching.? It does require current firmware on 3 and possibly 4 series processor for reliability.? Support on the module, as with all Ultamation software, is top notch.? In my implementations, just in case Apple breaks the module, I have IR in place that is automatically enabled at run time if the module loses connectivity.??


Re: Simpl Windows Compile Errors

 

I would start by sending an email to Ultimation to see if they have any insight to the error.? Are you opening the file from an archive? Project folder user DB?


Simpl Windows Compile Errors

 

I have a six year old Windows 11 machine that all of the sudden is unable to compile Simpl Windows programs that contain a Simpl Sharp library and/or Simpl+ modules. I can take the same project and compile it on another machine just fine.
I have tried removing the SplsWork folder. I have uninstalled and reinstalled all Crestron related programs. All current Crestron programs installed via Masterinstaller. I have reinstalled Microsoft Compact framework. I have reinstalled the S# and S#Pro plugin. Before I rebuild this machine from scratch, I thought that I would toss it out here to see if any of you have seen this and have figured out how to fix it. Thanks!
