Re: Switchable Privacy Glass - Works well with Crestron
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýIf you¡¯re referring to electochromic glass, usually (the good stuff, at least, and in my experience) is part of the glass manufacture process and it¡¯s actually sandwiched between two panes of glass rather than added after the fact and while it¡¯s never as clear as plain glass it¡¯s pretty non-noticeable if you aren¡¯t looking for it. I haven¡¯t seen any that are color changing. ? It¡¯s just voltage control ¨C so you just need a relay rated for whatever the glass is expecting as far as voltage and current. Frequently (IME) it just winds up as a switched (non-dim) circuit on the lighting control system . ? (The way it works, at least the implementations I¡¯m most familiar with and that I first saw [in a Hometime ¡°House of the Future¡± episode from 1992 ¨C wow how that project help set the career trajectory while I was still in elementary school] it¡¯s essentially a monochrome LCD display with no backlight. When there is no power all of the millions of liquid crystals orient themselves randomly making the glass ¡°opaque¡±; when you apply power the crystals all wind up point the same direction making it ¡°clear¡±) ? -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ?

Re: Switchable Privacy Glass - Works well with Crestron
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI never got to try any of the products but I did some research and wrote about smart glass a while back.? Here is a link to the article. Hope this helps Jay On 2/24/2021 5:03 PM, adamzatorski

Switchable Privacy Glass - Works well with Crestron
Does anyone have good experience controlling Switchable Privacy Glass films?? We want a reliable product that can just go from see thru to opaque.? I don't have any color changing requirements at the moment but the clarity when it is in see-thru mode is very important.
Thanks, |

All I need to do is toggle the lights ON/OFF.? I'm sure I'm staring it right in the face but I don't see? Lights Toggle in the module.? Lights are tied to AUX1.
I'm guessing it has to do with setting AUX1 to a OneTouch button but it's not obvious to me how to do so.?? Hardware is Zodiac 4. |

Re: Best way to update a bunch of EX Dimmers??
Yup, it's beautiful - George is spinning in his grave...
RE: the 3-space button model - I haven't had too much trouble with this, BUT you do know that the middle button is not designed to be pushed, don't you??!!? I'm using it only for feedback... Here's my typical setup: Button 1 - Press: Light ON, P+H: Light Raise - Feedback: Momentary Button 2 - Press: no function -??- Feedback: HIGH when Light is on to any level Button 3 - Press: Light OFF, P+H: Light Lower?- Feedback: Momentary I've had issues getting Cycle Dim to work smoothly, There appears to be no way to change the 'default' ramp time for this - it's OK but my client wants more granularity that comes with a slower ramp time and have not been able to accommodate. Plus to have to press Down and then change to the Up button to raise a little is very in-ergonomic compared to a single button doing cycle dim. And many times when you change buttons your finger press is not perfect so instead of ramping up a little, the load goes to FULL and you start over again - Client is very unimpressed... The fact that there's no way to do a medium-large button that is a single press or single toggle (like with a Cameo) is unbelievable!!!? But I'm sure that only 80% of the Crestron lighting keypads installed previously in the world have something like this for a client feaure...It's not like 100% of the keypads have this...:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:( |

Re: new weather SG module defaults back to Rockleigh
Run an INITIALZE on the panel, set your default location in VTPro and load it again to the panel.
This has been an issue for ages that settings of the weather widget are stored on a initial load locally on the panel and does not get overridden when changed afterwards.? |

Re: Max number of Crestron App instances in a program?
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI have a temporary project with 42 Crestron App instances living in a PRO3 (and all of the iPads on the other end of VPN tunnels) ¨C granted the PRO3 isn¡¯t doing anything other than talking to those iPads and acting as a traffic cop to ¡°patch¡± the iPads to one of 4 other PRO3s depending on what the user wants to do ¨C but no issues. ? Back in the 2-series days the Ethernet stack was a hot mess so 10 instances seems about right (if not overly generous) for that platform but with the 3- and 4- the stack is much improved. ? -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ?

Max number of Crestron App instances in a program?
At one point Crestron had a rule of thumb that? - I think - said max 10 instances?
I am in the process of taking over a troubled job which is needing a reset every day apparently. The code has 30 Crestron App instances.? That was the first thing that stood out to me when I saw the program.... but Tech support said "no problem" to this. Was this limitation just my imagination? Or was this referring to the older Crestron Mobile app that connected on discrete ports? It's a 4 series job so maybe not an issue for 4 series? In searching for reasons to explain the need for resets I ran the diagnostic tool. I'm not an expert at interpreting error logs but this high number after "nic" gave my cause for concern suggesting high ethernet traffic. I have no other CP-4 to compare this to so I have no idea if this is typical. CP4>========== cpuload ==========

new weather SG module defaults back to Rockleigh
i have seen the problem on my tsw-770, tsw-752, xpanel
i add Ottawa, CA - set it as the default within a couple days Rockleigh is back as the default - no program or VTPro changes i tried deleting Rockleigh, but it came back faster also, i had Ottawa as the default & there was a warning symbol on the weather widget Rockleigh has a weather warning, not Ottawa |
