Re: DM-NVX-360 - USB Routing (NUX)

 

I've got it plugged into the device port, USB-C to USB-A into the computer. I found out the hard way htat USB-C to USB-C WILL NOT WORK.?
?
We also found out that the USB routing is working fine, the problem is that the touch screen display will only control the display that the computer has set to "Make this my main display" in windows settings. I discussed this limitation with them and they can't have our NVX system being their main display, so currently i am trying to find a work around for that. I'm not sure if it's a limitation in windows or if it's the touch screen itself. Kind of silly if you ask me.

LightShark module

 

Hi,
?
Has anyone ever worked with LightShark lighting setup (LS-1 console and LS-Node-4 DMX/ethernet node). Are there any crestron modules for LightShark? I couldn¡¯t find any in the usual places.
Thanks!


Re: TCL display IP control

 

We just went through this on a Home system. My tech said the TV has to be signed into a Google account to enable the IP control in the settings. Once signed in, the IP control worked perfectly!

Intercom recommendations - Not 2N or Doorbird

 

Hi all.? Just wondering if anyone knows of any IP intercoms/access control systems out there that might integrate well with Crestron?? I currently use 2N IP Verso (gen1) and a couple of access control units (keypads) which do everything I want in terms of integrating with my Crestron but the thing that is killing me is the video quality of the door camera. Its horrible.? Low res, grainy and unusable at night.?
?
I am also not a big fan of the 2N licensing structure and having to pay extra for this and extra for that and even just the subscription cost to have it call our phones.? ? Ultimately I wanted 2N for the ability for the intercom to be used on our TSW panels but as it turns out, we just dont use that feature.? When the doorbell rings, one of us has answered it on our phone before getting anywhere near a TSW!?
?
Im looking for something that can provide a higher quality image, with the ability to add access control units to the system, and there are a few options out there, but I need the ability to control the units IO ports via an API through Crestron at the same time.? I use this for door locking/unlocking from Crestron and also door open/close monitoring among a few other things.? ?Hikvision do a very similar system to the 2N which ticks all the boxes, but as far as I know, their API is non existent so I would lose Crestron control.? ?Have also seen another brand called Akuvox which looks interesting and they seem to have control support for their devices, but I am just unfamiliar with the brand.??
?
I could always upgrade to the 2N IP Verso 2.0 but again, their prices are ridiculous and then add on the required automation licenses and ongoing subscription costs for each mobile device and it becomes a rather unattractive option.?
?
Any thoughts or recommendations?? Or am I looking for a fairytale project that just doesnt exist in the price range of common folk???

Re: DM-NVX-360 - USB Routing (NUX)

Re: Alternativce SACN module

 

This document talks more about merging:?

With two sACN sources, it appears the one with higher priority always takes over or HTP is used - no LTP merging available.? I would try changing the S-Play to physical DMX and see if you can configure the Ethergate to merge them in LTP mode instead.

DM-NVX-360 - USB Routing (NUX)

 

Hello Crestron Family,
?
I have an NVX system here where we are now trying to implement NUX (USB-Over-IP) as well. The layout looks a little something like this:
?
IFP110 Viewsonic Smartboard USB-B -> USB-A DM-NVX-360 Decoder -> Aruba CX-6100 PoE switch -> DM-NVX-360 Encoder USB-C -> USB-A Client OFE Computer
?
Basically we are trying to get a ViewSonic touch screen display to act as another mouse on the client's computer via NVX USB routing. I have the NVX routing working fine and I manually route USB via layer 2 transport mode, and both NVX-360's say "Paired" and act like the USB is connected and will work, but my touch screen is not controlling the computer on the far end at all. I get the same reslult with layer 3 transport mode as well.
?
I have tried both the HOST port and HID port on the touch screens decoder, but I get the same result. "Paired" but doesn't control anything. Perhaps someone has done this before and can tell me what I am missing? Thanks in advance for any input.

Re: TST-1080 (html5 Construct) Subpage and text punch-through

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Not really familiar with Construct, but I¡¯m assuming you can attach custom CSS to a component.

You need to add ¡®pointer-events: none;¡¯ to the CSS of the overlaying object. That will let click/tap events fall through to whatever is behind it.

In your case, it sounds like you¡¯d need to add it to the styles for the menu div, but you¡¯ll also need to set ¡®pointer-events: auto;¡¯ on the close button if it¡¯s a child of the menu div.

See?

I can't change the UI as this is a pre-agreed UI based on an existing TSW VTP project and I'm not allowed to deviate.
?
* I have a button in a widget list that has 3 text objects over it containing event information
This takes the form of:
number - event name - event time
Placing the text straight on the button just looks like shit as the placement gets messed up with the List header and it's impossible to get the text to line up correctly.
In VTP, this works perfectly, in Construct, it appears that you can't pass a press event through a text object.
?
Anyone know if it's possible to enable press-through?
