Re: New Programmer
>>??Not to mention that digital signals in x series processors don't break before make,
"Break before make" is a function of the symbols that are driving them, not the signals themselves. ?X Gen most certainly had break before make symbols - all the way back to the Cresnet IIP systems. ?Things like the Interlock. ?Perhaps what you are thinking of is that the 2 series changes some symbols to be break before make behavior - SR, Toggle, things like that. BTW, ST-CP was in the generation between CNMS and X. ?(CNMS was Ops 3.XX.XX, ST-CP was 4.XX.XX, and X was 5.XX.XX...) |
Re: Need SIMPL windows module for Extron AVT 100N
However, because the Extron protocol is so simple, it's a great way to _learn_ how to make a module. My first module was for an Extron switcher.
There is a file in the Files section of this group called ExtronExample.smw. It has a few ways to do it with SIMPL+. If you have a little extra time to look at it, you can get a great lesson about modules. Kevin |
Re: Veeder Root Control
I don't think you control them as much as just monitor them. We just did a slew of them on a data center project. I think by default they have an RS-232 port that is set up for modem dialing, you could probably find the protocol and just ignore the dialing strings.? Or you can get a gateway that converts the RS-232 port to Modbus IP or BACnet IP. Our vendor used the Modbus IP gateway to connect to an electrical power monitoring system. With a BACnet/IP gateway you could probably just use the BACnet/IP functionality in a 3-series processor - free for 50 points but spend for that 51st point. Usually there aren't a lot of parameters you need from this - tank level, tank low limit, tank high limit, tank overfill limit, maybe tank temperature and temp high limit. With BACnet you can just pick and choose which points to grab. How may of these things you got? |
Re: TSW750 - play sound?
I wanted to start moving to studio, so I started this project on studio. Where can I check the correct audio settings for my panel? I noticed the audio file I imported shows N/A on the Bits/Sample, Channels and format columns of the sound manager gird... I can play it tough on the sound manager player.

Re: Digital Projection e-vision 4500
"The 7500 I believe is a true DP Projector, the 4500 is their value
product and I believe its a rebranded Vivitek (although not 100%
certain), I do know that the base chassis is not DP. This is why the
protocol is so way out of whack"
That would do it!? Thanks Richard... ? - Chip |
Re: Need SIMPL windows module for Extron AVT 100N
"actually i am new in Crestron programming, i just finished my basic P101 training, so i don't konw how to create a moudule."
You don't *have* to make a module to control the device.? You could very likely drop an SIO symbol in your program, connect the tx/rx to the com port being used by the AVT100N, and be able to get all the control/feedback you need from populating the SIO. The majority of Extron products have control that is so straightforward that no one bothers making modules for them... ? - Chip |

Re: HD-TX3-F/HD-RX3-F
Ahh right... optical modulation I guess.?
It just surprises me that a lot of these fiber extender products aren't doing much more than their copper counterparts for the price. I know these particular Crestron pieces are inexpensive.. but I'm surprised there aren't more 4K+Ethernet extenders out. If you have suggestions let me know.? This set only does 1080p and 100 Mbps Ethernet. I'm interested in 4K UHD, Ethernet (1Gbps?), and maybe COM/IR over fiber. I don't need more than 1,000ft.? If fiber can handle the 10Gbps or more bandwidth, why are these products so limited? Or are we just waiting for the next wave of products to come out? |

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýDifferent wavelengths for the forward and reverse ¡°lasers¡± (or LEDs). ? Pretty common approach (DM8G Fiber uses the same concept; not sure if they¡¯re optically compatible) but also very common in IT/Telecom particularly over long distances [or when you¡¯re leasing fiber by the strand]. IIRC, there are options on the market that let you stack 5 or more full duplex 10Gb* links on a single strand by multiplexing a 10 wavelengths [5 forward, 5 reverse]. ?

Re: New Programmer
Heather Baiman
I concur with all the people who suggested you get a 3-series processor and use an XPanel for testing. While you're getting that together...
1. Do you work for a company that is a Crestron Dealer? Get yourself enrolled in the Level 1 Programming Class. 2. Check out Answer ID 5188 on the website which is all about getting into SmartGraphics. Near the bottom of this page are links to other related Answer IDs; in particular ID 5386 which has 12 instruction videos. 3. Check out example programs (mostly for Crestron gear) here: 4. Check out the A+S Buffer Tests.zip<> file in the group's files-programs folder. A great illustration on the difference between analog and serial buffers (came across it recently while searching for this debate from years ago) 5. I sent the following list to a coworker I will be training soon: These are the most common/useful symbols in the Simpl Symbol Library, I suggest you read their help files (press F1 when highlighted): Analog: Analog Buffer Analog Equate Analog Initialize Analog Increment with Optional Feedback Analog Scaler with I/O Limits Conditional: Analog Comparison Full Set AND Buffer NOT OR Truth Table Counters: Ring Counter with Seed Memory: Analog RAM Interlock Set/Reset Latch Toggle Sequencing Operations: Stepper Serial: Analog to Serial Make String Permanent Multiple Serial Send Serial I/O Serial Send Serial/Analog One-Shot Time/Date: Clock Driver Past When Timers: Debounce Delay Logic Wave Delay Logic Wave Pulse Multiple One Shots One Shot Oscillator Retriggerable One Shot ________________________________ From: Crestron@...

Re: New Programmer
You could also learn a lot of things with an ST-CP and a Pronto, but I wouldn't recommend it to someone who wants to do this for a living. If someone wants to learn Crestron programming, then they'd be crazy to learn on equipment that has been discontinued. Not to mention that digital signals in x series processors don't break before make, and there are some S+ functions that work fine in a 2-series that will not work fine (or even compile) for a 3-series.

They use wavelength division multiplexing to achieve bidirectional communication on 1 stand of fiber.
