Creating Epson serial module for Powerlite G5450

chuckperkinscrestron
 

I have created a module for our Epson G5450 projectors. Everything seems to work but I have a couple questions.

1. When the projector is "Off", I get a ERR\x0D when polling the projector, I will get the PWR=04\x0D also, that shows that it's off. When the projector is "On" I only receive the PWR=01\x0D response from the projector. I have the module set to pulse the "Proj is On" or the "Projector Is Off" based on the status returned from the polling. With this polling, my touch panel buttons are always in sync with the status of the projector On/Warmup/CoolDn/Off even if the projector in control by the IR remote. I see in the Crestron Module for the Epson G5650 (which uses the same commands) that they watch for the ERR or : (ack) but I can't figure out what they are doing when the response is received.

I created my own module so that I can monitor/control just what I need - Power On/Off, Pic Mute On/Off, Lamp Hours, Select HDMI Input

Does the ERR\x0D response cause issues after polling for long periods of time?

2. I have noticed that after the projector has been Off over night, that it doesn't respond to the Power On command from the button press. After the first time the power on press makes the projector turn on almost immediately. I don't see any shut down/sleep timers that are set in the projector.

Thanks for any info you maybe able to share.

Hello All. I am the founder of HouseLogix, a Pennsylvania technology company. For those of you who monitor the Control4 world, you probably have heard of our VoicePod product by now. See www.voicepod.com. We are just launching VoicePod May 13th after three years of development and a successful six month beta program. We recently received a US Patent on VoicePod and have registered hundreds of dealers in the past few weeks.

In a nutshell, VoicePod is a new wireless device designed to "speech enable" any home automation system. Each VoicePod combines voice recognition (both speaker-dependent and speaker-independent) technology with speech-synthesis and text-to-speech technologies inside a small device with wireless communications. VoicePod is packaged as a wireless tabletop device with a built in speaker and microphone. But it can be wall mounted or rack mounted using external microphones and interface with external audio systems as well. All technology is embedded, so VoicePod recognizes commands instantly. Its voice commands and menus are completely customizable.

The first flavor of VoicePod provides both Zigbee support and serial integration through a built-in serial port. We are publishing VoicePod's serial integration protocol. We also have Wi-fi and iOS versions well underway that each will support full IP integration. I won't try to explain the whole product fully here since our website and videos do a good job of that. www.voicepod.com/faq has a lot of answers.

I'm here because we would like see some Crestron implementations of VoicePod. We are Control4 experts and Control4's DriverWorks tool allowed us to create very robust Control4 support for our launch. We have no expertise in Crestron (or AMX, Savant, etc) and are looking for some help with making sure our product finds its way into the Crestron world.

There seems to be a lot of Crestron expertise floating around this "colorful" forum so I thought I'd seek some partners and early adopters on here. Ideally, we're looking for experienced Creston dealers with a customers who want VoicePod. We'd like to work with some dealers to build a free (or marketable) Crestron module suitable for serial and/or IP integration with VoicePod. We would provide discounted hardware and a superb level of support to early adopters in the Crestron world.

Our product is a home run for both luxury living and for the disabled at the same time. If interested in working with us, feel free to email me at ted.rosenberger@...

Re: OT: Introducing HDMI to component distribution (PVID/BIPAD) creates ground loop

 

I would check the same thing. You can pick up a cheap coax ground loop isolator from the shack or get something like the Jensen at the bottom of this page.


The Jensen works well, but if the cable company ever comes to troubleshoot an issue, they often remove them and throw them away. I usually try a cheapo first and if that causes an issue, then I go with the Jensen.

Basically, the above. We've taken over an old analog distribution system,
and recently replaced an old Fujitsu plasma w/ a large Samsung LED unit. No
problem while on component distribution.

We were then asked to connect 'His Cable' to the new TV via HDMI as the
lead-in to a DM system. Pulled 2x Cat6 about 60' and used a Vanco balun to
accomplish this.

We now have a ground loop on component signals (additional cable boxes,
BD, AppleTV gen1) to the Samsung. No issue on the other TVs.

Disconnecting the HDMI from the cable box fixes the issue. Other cable
boxes/BD also reintroduce the loop. Have tried an isolator on the component
connections between the TV and the PVID, and the PVID and the cable box, no
change.

Any suggestions/fixes?

Re: Analog Comparison for signed integer?

You could also use an ATOD symbol. Negative numbers are the only ones that have the highest bit set.

Or you can use an abuf driven by the digital press join of the slider.

I want to use a slider for volume and I use crosspoints for the interfaces
and room modules, like I'm suppose too.

When I use the slider on interface A it sends the volume to the room A
module correctly but that slider value is held in memory.

When I change to room B, interface A still holds the slider value and
changes the volume of Room B to whatever the slider was left at.

My brain hurts.
OT: suggestions for budget multi-zone music/intercom system

Joseph Vossen
 

I have a client who would like us to install a simple multi-zone music/intercom system in a guest house. He is looking for:

2-4 sources, where one of the sources is an iPod
4-6 zones
includes an intercom, some stations are outdoors
no phone system for intercom use
does not need to be connected to a control system
sound quality not high on the list of importance, this will be used for "background" music

In the past, we have used Russound components for these type of systems, but it's been a few years since we have had to install something like this.

Does anyone have a pointer to a system that would work here? anything to avoid?

thanks
