Re: Crestron Mobile Pro G - Designing in Landscape

 

Hi, this might help.

Do all graphics on subpages, ie crestrons demo projects, set to join 0 if you like. Then set the subpages not to scale on rotation. then none of your buttons will either.

Re: SystemBuilder & DM

Systembuilder will control the switching funstions of DM just fine. The main feature it wont support is using the IR/Relays/RS232 on the room boxes.

Hi guys,

First non-Prodigy system coming up. It's an Adagio with a 8x8 DM switcher. Not being comfortable with SIMPL yet, I'm gonna have to use SB to program it. My question is regarding video switching. That was easy with Prodigy as there's a way to assign sources and TVs. But I can't find anything similar for Adagio. Is there something I'm missing?

As you guys can see, I'm still a noob! Thanks for the help.

Re: IDOC-V Makes Buzzing Noise

yellowfin684
 

The TB agent that spoke with your tech must not be informed. CEN-IDOCV's experience a bad batch about six months after their release. We got about 3 bad ones that buzzed. At the time we had to wait about 3 weeks for them to make a running change in production. This should be a know issue but also should have been resolved a long time ago. Either you have a really old CEN-IDOV or the problem has crept up again.

Nonetheless you have a bad piece of hardware and it needs to be replaced. Swapping out POE injectors will not fix the problem.

Hello Group,

I have an installation with several CEN-IDOCVs installed and several of the devices are emitting loud buzzing sounds from the "brick" (as opposed to the "puck"). One of my techs contacted TB with this and TB reports no awareness of this type of buzzing issue before.

Does anyone have any experience with this? If so, what should I look for or watch out for?

TIA, erik

I just have to toss my hat in the ring for commandfusion. There are a few posts here about how not that the ipad has a native touchpanel symbol the Crestron solution may be less processor demanding, but it looks like the commandfusion solution will almost always have more "iPadness" to it. Swiping, scrolling, gestures, etc.

I am told that 5 iPads in a LARGE project concurrently connected to the system may be the limit of CommandFusion, but I am not really sure. Then of course there is always the new found speed and horsepower of the the MC3 that might help in accommodating more iPads.

Have you discovered the Anchoring option in VTPro?

Open the Properties tab and select an item on the page, you will see an
anchoring option in the properties tab that allows you to deal with the
rotation issues to some extent.

On a recent foray into it myself I found that setting a sub page: Left=No,
Top=No, Right=Yes, Bottom=Yes FixedWidth=Yes, FixedHeight=Yes

AND having a sub page 748px wide X 518px high set 400px from top and 10px
from left *just* about centers the sub page in portrait mode BUT it slides
it to the right edge of the page, to me preferable as they can use their
thumb to operate cursor controls close to the edge of the page.

I placed a main nav strip horizontally at the top of the page and a footer
at the bottom but there is still a big gap between top nav and the sub page
in portrait, however in landscape you wind up with a big gap to the left and
right of the sub page.

I hate it but what else can you do?



While it has its own set of shortcomings I still think CommandFusion slays
Crestrons answer to the iPad!

Seriously, no develop in landscape mode? No horizontal scrolling lists?
C'mon Crestron!



I could be dead wrong about this but, I'm not so sure about 30 iPads on a
single processor with CommandFusion.

Seeing as how the EISC limit is around 30 or so, having 30 S+ direct sockets
may prove fallible if too many are in use at one time, it would be a real
suckfest to run into this problem late in the project.



Anyway, HTH

Re: New Processors/Software and Modules Issues?

 

Yes, there is no way to compile locked S+ modules - why don't ask this feature from TB?

My advise is to wait for a year of using series 3 in commercial projects)

But if situation is exigent (have you another when installing?), let's send me the locked USPs (except serial/activation protect routines, of cause) - I'll recompile em on current S+ for series 3 and send back locked without compile log for keeping developer's shame)

Re: Brute-force parsing of an XML stream ? (cc128 Current Cost)

 

Le 21 f茅vr. 2011 脿 23:00, Chip a 茅crit :


As long as your buffer is big enough to accommodate the larger messages, and as long as you're keying your parsing routine to run after seeing a "</msg>" tag, I'm not seeing where there would be a problem, no?

Those 2-hour messages don't look like they get bigger than 2k worth of data - which ain't a lot...

"The last 31 days Energy Usage is output as 2-hour aggregates of KWHr (3720 values covering 9 Appliances plus Whole House)"

The oven !? OMG you aussies are killing the planet 8-) LOL


Le 22 f関r. 2011 � 00:24, seismicsound174 a 閏rit :



Hi Marc,

We have that device in here in Australia where it's called WattsClever.

I wrote a module that parses the stream using nothing but SIMPL.
Gather on 47d ("/"). Use an STOA for each XML tag that you want to read then convert the ASCII characters to analogs using your choice of method as taught in Intermediate class... use an ARAM to store the analogs for further processing.

The only complication is the yearly value which has more than 5 digits (bigger than a 16-bit analog).

Enjoy - maybe it'll help to get people to turn the oven off when they don't need it... ;-)

Hey Group,


I'm working on a CurrentCost Envi cc128 device. It's a power meter, and its RS232 output can (and will) spit power consumption data.

It outputs a realtime and short xml stream whenever it gets a reading from one of its meters.

It also outputs a set of possibly very long xml data sets every two hours.



I'm parsing the "realtime" data just fine. I even put together a cool little graph using the Google Charts module from XXXXX.


Problem is, now I gather the string and search for the tags i'm looking for. I suspect that won't work with the very long xml for daily, weekly and monthly data.

I'm not willing to parse and store all the data. Far from that, I'm only willing to retrieve one or two days of hourly history, one or two weeks, and one of two months. The idea is to generate history charts for one hour, one day, one week, one month. Well, maybe one year too.

For that I should read data as it flows through my module. How would you gurus do that ?
