Astronomical clock weird behaviour
However I set the “Format” parameter in the aclock symbol, it is giving me the same Morning-Hour/Min analog outputs and what’s more, those outputs are out by an hour. “Actual” sunrise tomorrow is, for example, 5.01, but the output is 6.01, irrespective of the Format.
I am using the clock driver with DST (on an RMC3) and it is correctly showing that we are currently in DST and the Lat/Long/East/West parameters are correct as is the system time being used as input to the aclock. Can anyone enlighten me as to the inventive way I have managed to screw up? |

Re: Sony SRG-300H controlling over IP not saving presets
If I remember right, the module with the 6 presets if not specifically for the SRG series, but the EVI series. You can find it it in the market place. Protocol should be identical. Whar are the responses from the camera when sending a camera preset save/recall command? Anoher thing comes into my mind: Afaik the IP control requires address parameter in the command to be 1. Different addresses do not make sense, since the cameras are addressed via IP address, no daisy chaining over IP. Please check the protocol documentation for more info. Best regards Crestronfreak55 |

Re: TPMC-8X question
开云体育In setup select adaptors -> highlight the wireless adaptor in the list -> configure -> wireless networks and the rest should be pretty self-explanatory. ? Depending on how old the firmware is, the wireless adaptor used (Intel or Atheros) and/or how much [intellectual] trauma the panel has been subjected to, it’s possible that the wireless tab may be missing. ? If you have the firmware the implements the “fix” for this there should be a “reset wireless” button somewhere along the way. Beware that that fix is fairly destructive (it may be equivalent to a factory restore – but it’s been years since I’ve had to do it) so make sure you have a copy of the project ready to load, know the settings, etc. ? If you are missing the tab and don’t have the reset wireless option, you’ll need to connect via wired Ethernet (simplest way is through the dock, though if you have an USB-to-Ethernet adaptor using the ASIX 88772 chipset (IIRC, some Nintendo adaptor did per reports here years ago) that also works); load the latest firmware and then hit the reset wireless button. ? In any event to be safe, make sure you note any relevant settings (IP table, static IP address if used) and make sure you have a copy of the latest VTZ before you do anything. ? -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ?

I have taken over a system that includes a TPMC-8X wireless panel. The Wi-Fi setup in the house changed since the system was first setup 10 years ago. ? My question is... How (in the panel's setup menu?) do I enter a new WiFi SSID and password? ? Thanks! Don R.

Re: Sony SRG-300H controlling over IP not saving presets
Yes I know that we are saving internal to the module and not to the memory of the camera. That being said, I have tried to send the VISCA command direct outside the module directly to save preset 1 in the camera's internal memory and to recall, but that does not seem to be working. We are not using the IR remote to save / recall presets.
Where is the Version 1 of the Sony SRG camera module located? I downloaded the SRG-300SG module from the applications market which I am sure is the Version 2 module. They 6 preset module is all I need. Thanks |

Re: Sony SRG-300H controlling over IP not saving presets
Hi Steve,
There are two different versions of the Sony modules: Version 1 has 6 presets. This module uses the presets of the camera. Version 2 has 25 presets. Afaik this version uses NVRAM of the Crestron controller, does not use the memory of the camera. Therefore you have to save the presets before recalling them, recall only works with Crestron, not with IR remote control. Best regards Crestronfreak55 |

Sony SRG-300H controlling over IP not saving presets
Brain trust, I am having an issue with saving presets on the Sony SRG-300H camera. I am using the the Sony SRG-300SE IP module and it is controlling the camera manually just fine over IP UDP from what I can tell. The only issue that I seem to have is being able to save the presets. I have used lots of Sony P&T cameras over the years and have tried everything that I can think of and it just will not save the presets. I have the technical manual with the protocol from Sony. In looking at the commands leaving the module and the return from the camera, none of it seems to match what is in the manual. In talking to Sony tech support they have indicated that while the SRG-300SE and SRG-300H are similar, there is some differences due to firmware. I have 2 rooms and 6 camaeras, all are having the same issue.?Unfortunately this is a remote job site and I am trying to troubleshoot from afar.? Steve Adams |

Re: Laptop labels in Conference room
The other thing you can do (if it's DM) is put a sync detection dot that shows up on a connected source. This negates any confusion with a single laptop connected to multiple boxes... I really don't get having 3 HDMIs in a single box, and having two boxes. Two per box? Maybe....

Re: OT: google fiber
开云体育What color is the outer jacket? ? It’s most likely single mode. ? You also need to make sure you match the connector types, e.g. SC/AFC, SC/APC, SC/UPC being some of the more common ones – if you have an APC –terminated fiber and plug it into a UPC connector you will damage the mating surface of the connector where the fiber will likely need to be reterminated to achieve an optical loss level acceptable enough to work ? -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ?

Re: Laptop labels in Conference room
I prioritize labels in this order until client accepts one:
1st recommendation: Laptop1..Laptop2..etc. = Label the cable/cubby with matching labels and all is done and simple, no interpretation needed on end user.? They plug in their PC, and pick the input that matches their label on the cable. 2nd Recommendation: Front Laptop, Rear Laptop = only if there is a couple positions available.? Do not use when its a big table with 6 cubby's.? Keep it to 4 or preferably less cubies.? (Front, Middle, Rear)||(Front, Rear, Left, Right).? As most people mentioned, when dealing with Left/Right I use reference as if FACING the main display(s).? Same with labeling displays when there are 2 side/by/side. 3rd Recommendation: Room/Table Layout Graphic = Create an overhead view graphic (basic nothing fancy) that shows the table or floorplan and put the inputs in their approximate location on the table or floor.? Give enough detail on the map to allow user to orient themselves in the room (like glass wall location, or projector screen location, or credenza location,1 or more 'landmarks' to know which way the map of the room aligns with the physical room). I don't, and NEVER recommend...actually, I actively steer away from it even though some clients request it is the use of actual cardinal system descriptors such as ("North Laptop", "West Laptop").? These are the WORSE possible labels to use, and the most confusion and frustrating variants out there. ??????? >? First: Unless the room has an outside facing window with some big well known landmark (like an ocean), then few people will naturally know where N/S/E/W is without using a dang compass.? Not even the programmer.? I've been in buildings that you might have some semblance of where the main entrance is (west side of building), but by the time you navigate through the lobby, down a corridor, to the main elevators, than get off on the floor of the conference room, and navigate down another corridor, through the breakroom, and kitty-corner across a cubical farm to get to the conference room, you have NO IDEA which way is North/South/East/West at this point unless you are a migrating flock or birds. ??????? >? Second: It may seem that you know N/S/E/W when you are installing, because you have drawings that show the entire floor, in CAD and are orientated with cardinal directions on it and a bunch of info that users will NOT have after the install is over with.? Fire maps don't even have that much info on them hardly. ??????? >? Thirdly: It raises the question from the end user of interpretation of NSEW directions.? Are they referencing True magnetic cardinal directions that you would find using a compass.? Or are they referencing a set of directions in relation to the room, and not the earth.? Aka, is North another name from Front of room.? South being the back of the room (regardless of what "True North" is?).? How are NSEW to be interpreted? Those are my recommendations... -jason |

Re: Laptop labels in Conference room
We align accordingly to location. ?If in a table, we relate front being end nearest the display. Left or right as viewed facing front of room.

Re: Laptop labels in Conference room
开云体育Really depends on the user. In any case the label near the actual input should (a) be there and (b) match the label on the user interfaces ? Laptop 1 and Laptop 2 are the most common. ? Front and Rear (or head and foot if you want to be fancy) – but this can open deep philosophical discussions about which is “Front”/”Head” and which is “Rear”/”Foot” ? Cardinal directions are usually more confusing than helpful unless there’s a clear orientation guidestar in the room or you’re doing a room somewhere where people generally have an above average sense of direction (e.g. army, boy scouts) ? I try to avoid using “HDMI” as an input name because it takes nontechnical users more processing time to equate HDMI == the thing on my laptop. ? Lincoln -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ?

Re: Custom Logo Graphic on Built-in DMPS Airmedia
I am in Crestron NVX Training and asked this of the instructor. He said yes you need to do it thru SIMPL. It is under the Airmedia Slot and then under the OSD control. Bottom line of the module is where would put the URL.
