I've been using Windows 10 for a while now,? just ran Master Installer yesterday and no issues with my Crestron software.

Err... why?? Our programming/ui staff run the full suite of?Crestron apps on Windows 10 without any issues.? If you have some secret info, it'd be great if you could share it with the rest of us.

Re: Wire control of Haivision Stingray2?
Jeff,
Yep. Open existing file in WinDEAL, save as new file without the carrier and walk away quietly.
If you try to fiddle with learner related options with no learner connected, WinDEAL can lock up big time.
Cheers

Re: help with creating lighting scenes
I've done something like that in Simpl + with the levels and which dimmers/dali groups are affected by each preset. 150 presets and 380 channels... All stored in NVRam with an export/import from a file.
Of course that's pushing the memory limits of the AP3.

Re: Crestron Samsung EX-LINK Issues
Can someone please help with some advice on this module issue/how the display wants the commands?
Here's some examples of how the module is outputting the Digital TV commands which work great:
Ch 47.1 - \x08\x22\x04\x80\xBC\x01\x95
Ch 47.2 - \x08\x22\x04\x80\xBC\x02\x94
Ch 58.24 - \x08\x22\x04\x80\xE8\x18\x52
Here's some examples of how the module is outputting Analog TV commands were the channel is not multiplied by 4 (notice there is no spot for the sub channel):
Ch 124 - \x08\x22\x04\x00\x00\x7C\x56
Ch 68 - \x08\x22\x04\x00\x00\x44\x8E
But anything that is Digital TV and has a channel of 64 or higher doesn't work. ---In Crestron@..., <jeremyttweb@...> wrote : This is an old post but I was just having this same issue. It came down to how the command is "built" in the SIMPL+ module. It takes the channel digit, multiplies it by 4, and then converts it into HEX. Well because HEX caps out at 255, any channels about 64 (technically 63.75) will start to have strange behavior. Here is the SIMPL+ code for reference:
if(DTV) makestring(sChannelCommand, "\x08\x22\x04\x80%s%s", chr(iMainChannel * 4), chr(iSubChannel));
I'm trying to figure out why the module needs to multiply it by 4. It only does it for DTV and not ATV.
1. Has anybody tried getting rid of the "*4" and would the TV accept the command? 2. If the "*4" has to stay, how do you format longer channels in the string?
For example this is the string to go to channel 47.1:?\x08\x22\x04\x80\xBC\x01\x95 Does there need to be a "high channel"?

Re: Controlable Mic Mixer and DMX Controller
Typically, when a client is asking for ¡°manual controls¡± such as an audio mixing console, I recommend that the mixing console not be controlled. Instead, let the mixing console be an audio source in your reception hall and provide dedicated audio inputs connected to an audio DSP for the times when the audio mixing console is not in use. You can provide control of the dedicated inputs from the touch panel, while leaving the mixing console alone. Generally, a person with the technical expertise to operate a mixing console doesn¡¯t want to be constrained by a control system.
If you need to recall DMX lighting scenes, you might want to consider a cue server, in addition to a lighting console that can be ¡°patched-in¡± when needed.
Hope that helps.

Subject: [Crestron] Controlable Mic Mixer and DMX Controller
Have a client asking for a bid on a reception hall. He would like physical mixing and lighting boards so that it can be managed without a control system. Just in case their crestron or ipads die. any recommendations?

The only difference there is your line ending.? Crestron turns \n into \x0D\x0A, while your second command only has \x0D (aka \r)? Some devices are flexible about line endings, but most are not.

I just had an instance where sending RSPW1\x20\x20\x20\n would respond with an OK but the serial port would not stay on after a power down.
Sending the same command but in Hex \x52\x53\x50\x57\x31\x20\x20\x20\x0D made it work, just an FYI.

Re: help with creating lighting scenes
Well, of course you have to have a max number of loads and scenes, but I would presume that was assumed. That said, I can quickly change my max quantity.
?
Heath did this over a year ago in S#Pro....
It would be very difficult to achieve a truly flexible architecture in SIMPL to accomplish this. It's not impossible, but because of the nature of SIMPL you'd have to specify limits for the number of loads in a scene and the number of scenes ahead of time.?
S#Pro allows you to build as many objects as you need, dynamically.?
?
Wow - so sour.
I have one, but it's not vetted well enough to put on here.? Perhaps after I get the time to run it in my house I'll post it.
It's based off a Dynamic Presets file from D3Pro.
