Crestron HD-XSPA Beginner tips
I had to setup 5 of these during rack testing last week and had a few moments where I wanted to smack myself for missing the obvious. I thought the unit would get its LAN connectivity through the DM port since we had this being connected directly to DM 8G output cards. But the unit never showed up in a Network Device Discovery. The front panel or USB both showed a 169.254.xxx.xxx address so I thought it was not working. |
Re: Version Control
I use Redmine as well as ProjectLocker with Trac.?
I prefer Redmine to Trac. ?The pricing on ProjectLocker is good, but I will eventually be moving to something that uses Redmine. I dont want to maintain my own server so will use a hosted solution. Anyone want to nominate their Redmine hosting provider for consideration? |

For FTP on a processor, you dump it into the folder for each slot. For a Touch panel, you dump it into the display folder. On Wed, Sep 24, 2014 at 1:33 PM, smcnally@... [Crestron] <Crestron@...> wrote:

Re: 3 Series Multiple Programs - Tips, Tricks and Issues
At the last master's class, the Otter mentioned in passing these two command lines for FTP loading programs and panel projects:
progload -P:1? <yourprogramname> ??? for programs projectload -P:1?? <yourpanelproject>? for panels have not tried it yet - just took a note and forgot it till now. Nor did he mention just what folder to dump the file into before loading either. |
Re: 3 Series Multiple Programs - Tips, Tricks and Issues
Online Help ID: 5356 Basically: 1. Open FTP Client, connect to processor IP anonymously. (I use FileZilla) 2. Send .lpz and .sig files to the ProgramXX folder (the slot you want the program to run in) 3. Connect to the processor in a text console session (I use toolbox text console) 4. Type "progload -p:x" where x is the program name (or all).? There are several handy switches like -d (register the program but do not start it) and -n (register and start the program but do not set the IP Table) On Wed, Sep 24, 2014 at 11:15 AM, tlturner21@...

Re: 3 Series Multiple Programs - Tips, Tricks and Issues
Sorry about the flow chart link being broken.? Here's a visual representation of what I ended up doing: It downloads as a .pdf.? Hopefully it helps tie the description to how it actually works.? This example uses the "transposition" method by dedicating a slot in the processor to basically just shift an IPID that would cause conflicts to an IPID that won't.You can see how there are (3) instances of the "Open Office" room type and (2) instances of the "Small Huddle" room type that would each have to talk to the same DM/VC program slot and would have conflicting EISC IPIDs in the DM/VC program in slot 01.? By transposing to offset IPIDs for the EISCs it lets me define unique IPIDs in the DM/VC program and exactly the same IPIDs in the compiled "room program".? The transposition program just passes the data back and forth seamlessly.? The only downside to this method is that it eats a program slot in your processor and if you needed all 10 it might be an issue.? The beauty is that you could easily add an RMC3 and just use it's slots to transpose for you. The transposition program itself is pretty simple and I'm actually using the same compiled program for all three transposition slots, but using crosspoints based on a value from a text file to steer which EISC signals between matching pairs.

Neil, thank you for typing that up. I bookmarked it and will check that out next when i start messing with multiple apps per processor.? :::::::::::: J Pride On Wed, Sep 24, 2014 at 1:53 AM, Neil Dorin neildorin@... [Crestron] <Crestron@...> wrote:

Re: Absolute Humidity / Calculate "Power of x" in SIMPL+
On the other hand, unless you are in this for a technical exercise to improve your skill rather than make money . . . It would probably be more straightforward to just build a lookup table for (13.233*10^x) since there are relatively few points to evaluate. ?The temperature in the cellar should be almost constant, the outdoor temperature should also fall into a relatively small range, and it would seem that the temperature need not be carried out to decimal places. ?Just run a big sheet in excel and use the values from it. ?If you use your rounding to err on the side of not letting the outside air in you should be able to ensure the conditions are met.

You can get close using fixed point math and Taylor series in S+, but it's not exactly straightforward. There's a thread on here from 2009 about calculating rH from temp and dew point, it looks like it would be similar.? If you're on 3 series, though, S# is a much better route.

If you haven't tried the most recent lab release of toolbox I suggest you do so. SSH support, speed with the one click convenience.
