Vantage lighting

Has anyone had experience with Vantage?
If so how was the integration side with Crestron?
Certain modules etc you should and should not use?
Re: TPCS-4SM won't take program?

 

Make sure you're running the latest firmware... the original firmware had a number of nasty quirks including the program not starting automatically and also stopping (but not restarting) the program when you entered setup... It sounds like these may be (part of) your problem.

Subject: [Crestron] TPCS-4SM won't take program?

Hi there everybody.

My first TPCS-4SM. Loaded the SIMPL program, appeared to go fine, but Toolbox info reports no program. Cannot debug. Program does not appear to be running. Tried restarting the panel and my PC. Running latest firmware. Panel connected directly to my laptop. Cresnet devices in the program, but not connected.

At the DEV console, "DIR" returns what appears to be the correct file list.

I had an MC3 that seemed to have a similar issue. Only fix was a firmware downgrade.

VTPro project seems to run fine.

Anyone run into something similar?

TIA

Re: Daikin on an MC3

Their also several things the Daikin programmer must do, to make sure the Daikin will talk TCP/IP.
A key needs to be entered in the the Daikin unit.

Subject: [Crestron] Daikin on an MC3



Has anyone used the Daikin modules on the crestron site on a 3 series processor.

I'm having trouble getting the direct socket to connect. I put in a TCP/IP client with the same parameters (IP/port) and it connects fine.

There's a note in the text file to force the Daikin IC to use 10baseT connection but I don't have access to change that right now.

After speaking with them, their support said many have tried and failed with crestron.
Not sure what that means.
But yes some how Control 4 does it? I will ask my control 4 buddy and see how.

Hi,

I decided to do something a bit more useful and get some local train times
on there....

Thought this was a good place to start:



I don't seem to be getting back what I was expecting and wondered if I
have misunderstood how this works.

My main question really is

Should I be able to do this?
or does the site have to offer up some form of rss feed like yahoo does?
Or am I not going to be able to scrape sites that are generated using PHP

Thanks for any help,

Re: Scraping Sites

Brad Gibbs
 

Best not to scrape sites where an API is available. (Good) API providers only break the API out of necessity, where a site's HTML can change without notice.

Here's a description of their SOAP XML API that should meet your needs.

Re: DM 8x8 Question

Re: Samsung UE55ES7000 - EX-Link

 

Thanks,

But does this actually apply to me? The pdf regarding the module I am using has no mention of injecting power...

I am connecting directly from an AV2 to the EX-Link port.

Have I missed something here? When others connect Ex-Link do you not connect directly?

--- In Crestron@..., "javimanga" <javimanga@...> wrote:




Hi!

Check this info about ex-link

Specially this!!!:

"As the TV uses 3.3V TTL levels, the serial input/output has to be converted to/from TTL levels to RS232 levels (~10-15V). Thus a level shifter is needed. But most computers today, doesn't have an RS232 port, so you also need a USB-to-RS232 serial adapter (cable). Thus its a definite advantage to buy a pre-fabricated USB-to-serial converter using 3.3 Volt TTL levels on the serial side. Common one to look for are based on the PL2303 and FTDI chips.
WARNING! RS232 levels are up to 15V, which can cause seriously damage at your TV!"

Hi,

I hope someone can have some patience and spoon feed me through this as I have sat here for hours and have got nowhere. I am guessing a bit so please let me know if I am doing something stupid.

Firstly this may all be down to me using a module that may not work as I can't find my TV.

I have a: UE55ES7000
Closest I can find is the UN55ES8000

I've made up a cable for EX-LINK control using the diagram in the module pdf

(integrated_partner_modules/help_files/959/samsung_un55es8000_v1_0_help.pdf)

Tested cable with multi-meter, seems fine.

I have set the value of the RS232 mode to Debug.

Tried a basic test with the module set up like this:



I'm getting nothing in debugger on Samsung_Rx$ and the TV responds to nothing鈥�

Any help appreciated.

Thanks.

Cool - thanks. Makes sense. Was fascinated with 3-phase AC back when I had a class on industrial motors, so I'm familiar with the US formats - didn't realize they varied so far out of the country...

Re: Grace Internet Tuner

Randall Gay
 

Does anyone know what ports the Grace Digital Tuner uses
for feedback?听 Are they the standard UDP 1900 and TCP 2869?

Has anyone tried the protocol using a UDP or TCP client
to decode the feedback?听 Does the standard HTTP v1 GET statement work?

I have a job trying to install either this radio or the
CEN-Track for Pandora and wanted to see if anyone has successfully pulled the
feedback from this unit.
Thanks,

I had found this when searching the internet as well, but I might need some spoon feeding on this one. This is defiantly a stretch from the programing I'm used to. How do I initiate the communication, and once i have opened this line of communication is it as simple as sending it the commands?

Re: Wait function within SIMPL+

 

I'm not as good with Simpl+ as alot of guys here, but one way would be:
Declare a global variable (x) which gets set to 1 when the analog input changes. In the PUSH event declare variable y & initialize to 0. Put a DO Until loop in the PUSH event, with Until(y=30 || or x=1)
Inside the Do Until put a wait for 1 sec and then an If Else statement which executes if x=1, else increment y. After the Do Until, put an If statement which executes if y=30.
If you don't need to check every second, do a 5 sec wait, and exit the Do Until when y=6

how do I achieve this?
