Seeking a Panasonic 103" IR driver...
Hi Group,
Is anyone in possession of an IR driver for the Panasonic TH-103VX200U plasma? Specifically, I need the Function2 button as well as up/down/left'right/select commands to adjust the 3D settings. It does not appear that these commands are supported via RS-232 which is a bummer. I've perused the files section and did not find any files that supported this function. Thanks in advance to anyone lending assistance.

Studio has its own panel editing subsystem; it doesn't use VTPro the way D3 and SB do. On Wed, 14 Aug 2013 14:21:43 -0000, "eagrubbs" <eagrubbs@...> wrote: I have the feeling you are the only one using Studio. I have it installed though.
Can you open vtpro and vtpro in studio at the same time?

across each line.

Re: Would like some guidance please
Load your HVAC/securty program to a spare processor and EISC back the main. That is all you have to do. LOL. I hate it when people say that because it always is a huge pain to do.
3 series are nice, but 2 series are more rock solid. I have seen some weird rebooting issues with 3 series that I have not seen with 2 series. I am not sure if it my fault or the 3 series "features." I personally don't think they recover from us doing something stupid code wise like a 2 series. They are finicky.

For $99? Hell if they have 1 iPad it is $99. If they have 30 iPads, it is $99. Sounds like a non-issue. You have a multiple factor of that invested in redesigning the panels.
Could be worse. AMX is over $700 PER DEVICE because they use a licensing system and the customer doesn't buy the app (it's free). They buy a license from YOU. That is a lot tougher to explain but is still WAY cheaper than buying an AMX/Crestron touch panel.

Yep. Completely different app, different features, etc. And Apple don't do price protection.
You could make them feel better by reminding them that a few years back there were no iPads and they would be spending thousands of dollars on touch panels.
Not to mention that if they already HAVE the original app, it still works just fine - no need to upgrade. (Oh, what? You *want* new features? Sounds like an *upgrade* then)
Compared to the cost of everything else in a decent A/V system, the ire comes up over a $99 application? Really???

Basically I have my MC3 merrily writing values to a text file (works fine), but I need a separate Windows based PC on the network (a digital signage player) to read the text file so it can display the contents on signage screens. Can it be done?

1 - There is a tech note that goes into this in more depth on Crestron's site, but it basically involves setting up port rules on the router to allow connections from the outside to come in. Depending on the router, you can usually set the iPad to always attempt to use the external address, so the same connection profile will work whether you're on the internal LAN or truly outside.
2 - follows 1 pretty closely. You don't need to change anything on the processor - just rules in the router to let you "dial in" from the outside on port 41794. When it's properly set up, you just need to point Toolbox to the external IP address, and the router will direct the request to the processor.
3 - As long as you have the app running on the iPad, use the Toolbox System Info tool to connect to it. You'll have the option to load a project to it, just like it was any other touch panel.

1. How do you setup a processor and router to enable access with an iPad externally for control?
2. Ho do you setup the processor and router so that I can remotely load updated programs directly onto the processor without being on-site?
3. Last question, How do you load a VT Pro file onto an iPad locally, so it doesn't have to download from processor every time.
Thanks!
