Can't you just add 5 to the initial value before DIVMODing it, or is my
math off?

an asum) and use an aos to tigger the sequence.

The TPMC-4SM (and TPCS-4SM, not sure about the "D" version, though) do via the System3 Reserved Joins device extender with an analog value for each button (0 - off, 1 - green, 2 - red, IIRC)

Beware, though, I'm not sure why but changing the backlight color seems to be a particularly intensive task, especially on the TPCS. Depending on what else the touchpanel is doing at the moment it can range from "slight lag" to "OMG, it's not working! <beat> Oh, wait, there it goes!"

Needless to say, I have not found acceptable results with trying to use the backlight color as a "Yes, you pressed me!" indication. I have, however, in a few projects used it to indicate things like audio and video mute status. But again, be ware of the hardware limitations: I generally prefer to make mute buttons "blink" (driven by a common 0.5s/0.5s OSC) so they jump out at the user, this does not work well on the TP**-4SM family.

On the TPMC-4SM doing this tends to get the panel farther and farther behind so that after a few seconds the panel is so far behind that the observed blink rate is more like 1.0s/1.0s -- and the worst part is that it queues them up, so the button will continue to blink well after it's no longer being told to blink by the program.

So, in other words, don't try changing the color too frequently :)

IIRC the TPMC-4SM does not support individual led feedback for hard buttons. You can select green or red as the backlight colour and then turn the whole backlight on/off.

Hi Guys,

I am having a play with our campuses first TPMC-4SMFD and have gotten stuck on the feedback for the LED hardbuttons. I have limited experience with Crestron touch panels as all we have on campus TPSG-TPI's with different manufacturer touch panels so any help would be gladly appreciated.

The result I am after is to get the LED hardbuttons to illuminate individually dependant on feedback. Currently all i'm getting is all hard buttons illuminated constantly whilst the panel is awake :(.
I presume this can be done as it mentions in a crestron document that the buttons can operate individually or globally. However I cannot find where this is configured.

Additionally I have not made this a core-3ui project as I need to keep a similar look to our existing user interfaces. Does it need to be a core-3ui project to get the outcome I want?

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Cheers,

Ihaia

Hope that makes sense for you. This could also be done using a for loop

but I thought you might understand this method more easily. You could

also

parse the name with a single mid statement and have no need to define

sDump

and save some memory but thats really irrelevant.

Ex. Actor$[i] = mid(sTemp, find("name=",sTemp) + 7,Len(sTemp) -

((find("/>", sTemp)-3) - (find("name=",sTemp))); //I'm almost sure to

have

missed a parenthesis but you get the idea.

Another way to deal with rounding is to add 5 to the number before sending
it through the DIVMOD. For example, 740-744 would become 745-749 and end
up as 74, while 745-749 would become 750-754 and end up as 75.

Hi all,

I just changed my house from a HAI thermostat that output nice even
numbers like 74 or 76 degrees to the CHV-TSTAT and it outputs 74.3 or 75.1

Is there an easy thing like a ascale with the right settings that will

touchpanels and iphone projects the same?

I am thinking there is an easy way but its slipping my mind.
