Re: Issues with D3 and program generation.

 

I've seen the same issue.? I rolled back to an older version and that works.


Re: Issues with D3 and program generation.

 

I've seen a discussion about this on the Crestron Discord Server. this is what I found

I just hit this same issue. For anyone interested, the problem is with the newer device database and gen 1 Horizon keypads. You need to roll back to Device database 200.295.001
But beware if you also compile SIMPL there were fixes to HZ thermostats and other things in the newer database. I'm running a VM to deal with this
Frank - Osbee ¡ª 01/16/2024 8:58 AM
And yes if you have a 2 series processor the scheduler is broken after crestron database 212.05.002, I run a VM for that also ?


Re: Issues with D3 and program generation.

 

I'm at a loss.? I got to my desk top that hasn't done any updates in a month.? Have the same issue with the file from my laptop.? So I opened and did a save as of a previous version from 6 months ago and tried to build it and D3 does the same thing.? So it isn't a hardware issue.? I tried rolling back D3 and that didn't help.? It is almost as once it happened to the file and I tried building on another machine that it corrupted D3 some how.??


Re: Issues with D3 and program generation.

 

I've tried to unistall and reinstall both D3 and Simpl.? Software is all the latest except for the Crestron DB.


Issues with D3 and program generation.

 

Not sure its a crestron issue.? D3 worked fine over the last couple of days.? Today my Dell laptop updated its BIOS and I am now having an issue with D3 program generation now.? D3 goes through the entire generation till the very end, just before compile, and shows "Completing Program Generation" then changes to "Program Generated Incomplete" and generates a second simpl file in the programs folder.? Program_Name_incomplete.smw

Anyone ever scene this?? Any idea what I should look at in bios that might cause this issue.? I went back to the original program that I did a save as of and tried to build it and had the same result.? All crestron programs are set to run as admin.? I'm noticing that because it stops before compile that the simpl program is not being saved again at the end of the generation process either.


Re: Autonomics Command

 

BTW the command that I was looking for is "Startup:Favorites" and you send it to the "Player_X_Config" serial signal.

I have had Emitters that even though the LED Lights they were not working.. May want to try another one just fro grins.. I hope its a known and trusted one you have used before.

Doesnt hapen very often if you have another device in the rack add that to the IR port and verify the emitter controls that device. Simple quick check to see if it is emitter or something else..


Oh Also if they have a USB IR Capture you can use verify that the emitter is triggering what was sent.

Just food for thought

If that works, I would look into the emitter. Changes polarity, replace with a different brand. Make sure it is the only emitter on that port. How's looking is the emitter wire? Is it picking up noise? Try a different ir port. Try a it port on a different device, like a NVX?

Try a different ir port. Try a it port on a different device, like a NVX? We did try changing to IR port 2 of the DMPS no other devices like NVX with IR ports to try. This is the only IR controlled device in the design so this the only emitter.

Good advice, Thx! At this point I'm hoping it is simply an IR addressing issue which has not been verified.

Re: Calendar Based Event

 

I would just use the event scheduler module in the database


Re: DirecTV HR-44 IR Control

 
Edited

Yes, I want to check this. Unfortunately, this projects DTV receiver was delayed on the original installation, and we are now using a local sub to help us sort this out while we work remotely with him. I was aware of this function but at the time did not have the manual linked above to have the local tech dig into that. I only found a manual that described turning RF to IR. Although this might not account for the captured code working from the USB learner and not working from the IR file in SIMPL. Thanks for the detailed instructions!


Re: DirecTV HR-44 IR Control

 

check to see if the receiver is on a different IR code set. DTV has up to 8 different sets of codes you can use, if someone changed it you might need to change it back to the default 1.?


1. menu> setup> settings> remote> advance setups>

2. press DASH key on the remote, its the key left of the zero key.
3. click on the Receiver #, to reveal a drop down menu, scroll to Receiver 2, that's if you are actually using code 00002, if not then it would be one of the following:

Receiver 3- 00003 on the remote
Receiver 4- 00004 on the remote
Receiver 5- 00005 on the remote
Receiver 6- 00006 on the remote
Receiver 7- 00007 on the remote
Receiver 8- 00008 on the remote


Re: DirecTV HR-44 IR Control

 

It was set to IR as shown in the manual, and after the Crestron database IR files did not work, we captured the menu IR command with the Crestron USB IR learner from the remote. Testing it from Toolbox with the USB learner directly worked. However, when the captured IR code file was added to a SIMPL program the command would not work. The wired emitter was a visible light emitter so we could see it was transmitting and it was moved around the DTV receiver to find the receiving eye. The controller is a DMPS3-4K-350. At this point we may try a Crestron Certified driver for IP control or get DirecTV to bring out a different model receiver.?


Re: DirecTV HR-44 IR Control

 

We've seen this in the past, some directv remotes and receivers come paired as rf and need to be changed to ir?




Re: Trying to Understand Crestron Gateways. Helped Needed please!!!

 

I 2nd loving the HR150s. I have like 9 in use in my house. Very solid, great battery life. Yeah once in a while they lock up and you pull 2 batteries to reboot it and its Good for another year or so

Re: Mitsubishi mini split and Crestron Home

 

Get a CoolLinkHub and CoolPlugs (CP-ME)

The Plugs can run wireless or wired(modbus daisy chain), and get powered from the indoor unit.

One Hub. One CoolPlug per each Indoor Unit.

Home would talk to the CLH via Bacnet.

I actually work for CoolAutomation now, in full disclosure, but this is the best solution out there. I used them as an installer all the time...

Re: Trying to Understand Crestron Gateways. Helped Needed please!!!

 

HR-150 is probably the best remote ever made

Followed by MX-850


Re: Calendar Based Event

 

DayHourMinMonthDay.zip is in the files section here.

Run the analogs into an EQU and go at it!


Re: D3 Scheduling squashed with latest DBs again???

 

Seems like this is also an issue with 2-Series processors as well where you need to rool back DB.

https://community.crestron.com/s/article/id-1001850

Do 3-series with older DBs work? I typically will use a DIN-AP3 before a 4 for many reasons, especially with D3 replacement jobs...


Re: Route NAX AES67 audio to NVX analog output

 

To update, I finally got this working, using the settings below - after also changing the Audio mode to "Extract" instead of Insert.

Thanks to everyone who replied!

I'm not sure if this really applies to your case, but I pulled this from my
notes when I was trying to break audio from video when dealing with NVX360's on
both ends (encoder and a decoder)...so this might not apply to your case since
you have a different encoder... but I have a feeling it might help because you
have at least the same type of decoder... Setting 1 below is essentially what
you already mentioned on you original post. I hope it helps.

Setting 1:
Webinterface: Go to settings tab, look for Routing, under Input Routing
section, Audio Source change to DM NAX Audio.
SimplWindows: This setting on simplwindows is located under the main decoder
symbol, look for AudioSource and its analog value should be 5.

Setting 2:
Webinterface: Go to settings tab, under DM NAX (AES67 Audio), look for the
Receive portion of the configuration, and under Mode change from Automatic to
MANUAL.
SimplWindows: This setting on simplwindows is located under DM NAX Routing, DM-
NAX RX, SecondaryAudioMode and its analog should be 1.


Then during runtime, you can tell the NVX to show a video stream by sending a
URL to "StreamLocation" serial signal under the main Decoder symbol and then
you can tell the NVX to separately listen to another stream of audio on the
"MulticastAddress" serial signal under DM NAX -> DM-NAX-RX.
