XPanel installer did it, thank you dblpnt!
Apparently VTProE doesn't install it automatically. And why tech support didn't think to suggest this....

I have the same thing, just updated VT-ProE and now when I click the ¡®Run¡¯ it processes the file but doesn¡¯t run the XPanel emulator.
I did find that pressing ¡®Run¡¯ once or twice more will actually work. Just seemed to take a few presses before the XPanel will actually popup.

Re: Simpl# Pro Class for clk-yl-yrd226
I haven¡¯t looked but based on the way it¡¯s implemented in SIMPL (module with a serial to/from a generic Infinet device) I would be a little surprised if it exists in a way that doesn¡¯t require an external reference.
?
The ¡®good¡¯ news is that the module is entirely SIMPL/SIMPL+ so you can reimplement it in # yourself if you need to by reverse engineering the S/S+¡ just beware at least the version I¡¯m running (which may be the original release version)
is not exactly well-written and there are some relatively easy ways to break it on the user management side.

Does anybody have a class for the yrd226 smartlock? I cant find one in docs. Am I just blind?

Re: Somfy SDN control via CP3
So just to confirm, is the RS485 port on the processor connected directly to the SDN port on Somfy or through a UAI plus?

Make sure in your com port there is no delimiter set.

Crestron Home (OS3) MMS 3e problem
Hi All,
Anyone having any issues with Autonomic MMS e-series and Crestron Home? ?I just configured a MMS-3e and a Crestron Home system (both latest firmware) and while the Main and Player B channels work fine, the Player A channel doesn't work when selected. ?Doesn't show any data or allow you to browse.
All three channels appear to work fine when going to the web player directly on the MMS so it's something wrong in the communication between the MMS and the Home system.
Thanks in advance.

The CCD can be used and it was part of my troubleshooting when control failed. ?If they are aware of the problem and ¡®working on it¡¯ then they know that the V2 is similarly non functional. ?There is unfortunately no documentation outside of the SIO in the driver as to how to invoke the pairing process. ?I defined every user attribute to see if there was some hidden knowledge but no dice. ?I tried every button but nothing would make the pairing screen pop up. ?I even tried using the app to display the pairing menu then entered the code into the CCD but that was a dead end also. ?I hate that the drivers all have these secret ins and outs that aren¡¯t properly documented. ?Every time I use one I feel like I¡¯m on some sort of treasure hunt to figure out exactly what the thing needs to function. ?No one at Crestron knows and no one at Dish felt compelled to answer. ?

Got a call from Dish Custom Integration team today. They advised they are working on the issue and suggested a couple of things: 1.) I was not aware there is a secret menu to assign a static IP on the unit itself. I know most of us get around this by allocating IP by MAC address binding. Here are the steps to get to advanced menu for IP Settings, try setting static IP, DNS, etc. instead of MAC binding:
Go to Menu>Settings>Internet then go to the advanced tab (Skip this last step on the Wally)
On a 40.0 remote press: Recall, Recall, Play
On a 50 or 52 remote: Recall, Recall, Play/Pause
2.) I'm currently using module 1.1 on the application market and they recommended I upgrade to the 2.0 module available at??As far as I know, this module cannot be used on anything other than a Crestron Home setup. Can anyone confirm?
Please update here if any of the above recommendations work for you guys. Look forward to your feedback.

Re: Biamp Tesira Modules 3.2 - Crestron Application Market is down
Nevermind - TB just called me back and let me know they are now sending a download link to me.? Thanks.

Biamp Tesira Modules 3.2 - Crestron Application Market is down
Under the circumstances I hope this is ok to post.? If not the moderator can remove this.
I have just been on the phone with TB and confirmed that the Crestron Application Market is down. Modules can be put into your cart but you can not actually check out.? When you try to check out you wind up at a blank white page.? They are working on it but do not have an firm ETA on when it will be back up.? This was also reported earlier on the Facebook Crestron group.? Would anyone be willing to send me the Biamp Tesira 3.2 modules that may have already downloaded them?
Thanks in advance,

Re: What brand of NVR do you sell?
I sort of hate to say it, but the SnapAV LUMA product line is pretty good, both in hardware and software/app, and the cameras are generally 'a snap' to get streaming on TSW panels...
It seems to be one of the few of their lines that have gotten solid commitment to quality and features...

Re: Topics in Home Automation - New Article in Residential Tech Today
Sorry only cloud control without feedback.? However, there are discrete open/close commands which really works around many feedback issues.? Especially compared to tying a relay in parallel with a wall mounted garage controller that just toggles the door open/close.??
?I personally use a one of these? connected wirelessly to a non-alarm zone on an integrated security system to provide true feedback.? It is much more reliable?than worrying about whether a cloud service really knows what is going on and even provides feedback if the garage door is released from the opener and manually opened.
Unfortunately, you can only implement a module based on what the manufacturer provides in terms of an API.
Jay
Local or cloud control? I know you are not a fan so hoping it is local.?
However, from the brief skim of the ReadMe it looks like there is no feedback of the door status. Is that the case? I know MyQ has shut down previous attempts to provide fb (unless you subscribe to their service) so I will not be surprised.?

Nice catch on the explanation -- I hadn't even thought of that (and clearly Crestron didn't either!).

I think that is what we are going to have to do on this one.
CEC isn't an option with this one and I have had similar experience with IP not working 100% of the time on LG. ?I've done plenty of LG displays, both commercial and consumer, over 232 in the past, but it seems like the latest consumer model just isn't going to play nice.

Re: What brand of NVR do you sell?
I'm looking into a solution with Synology NAS and using the DS Cam app.? I had a co worker that highly recommended this setup.? Only downside I'm seeing is there are software licenses required per camera and of course, this is a consumer product so no profit margins.? But the app UX looks to be much better.
|
Is it just me or is the new line of HD-MD switchers priced exceptionally high...even for Crestron?
|
So for what it¡¯s worth, we just did two of these exact displays and could never get the 232 to work. Tried everything including usb to 232 adapter. ?Never found a solution to keep the port awake. ?We then switched to IP control with WOL to power the display on...this worked pretty well 95% of the time. ?Once in a while the WOL would lock the display up and the only solution was to unplug power. ?Ended up discreetly mounting an IR LED in the cabinetry, ordered a naked high output LED. ?If I remember correctly the IR receiver on the TV is in a cosmetically bad spot and a standard bug looked terrible.
|
I use RS232 to control my LG OLED65C8P. The connection has been rock solid for me. It's connected to Digi PortServer TS 8. I not think I had to make any special changes to the TV's default settings.
My only grief is that the TV does not properly send feedback via RS232.
I was never really successful controlling it via IP.

Re: 12V trigger with CP4 Versiport
Thanks Brian, i think i?ll do it that way. ? Cheers, Thorsten ? Von: [email protected] <[email protected]> Im Auftrag von Brian Matson

Betreff: Re: [crestron] 12V trigger with CP4 Versiport ? I think that you'd probably be more successful using a step-down from the 24VDC Cresnet through a relay than stepping up a 5VDC Versiport output.
The Versiport output is a very, very low current output.
I've had no problems using a step-down on the Cresnet.? You'll just have to use a relay instead.
I always use a diode on the transformer input just to protect the Crestron processor a bit more.
