Re: Simpl# retrieving IP addresses of all processors from a single program.

 

You could also implement service discovery with SSDP or something.

FS: TSW-770-W-S, Qty 6, Brand new...

 

Hi All
We have (6) TSW-770-W-S panels, The client decided to upgrade to the 10" 1070 models.
All are Brand-new but opened the boxes and did FW updates. All still DHCP, but may have a project loaded and a host name set - If needed I can undo these before shipping.

They are available immediately for your project, at dealer cost, plus shipping (probably less than Crestron's shipping...HaHa!!)
Please reach out directly if interested, first come, first served...

Re: Simpl# retrieving IP addresses of all processors from a single program.

 

Troy - no sir. I have a State Government building that the request of redundancy with in each processor so if one fails another will connect to local room to prevent downtime. Original code was written in Simpl#.?

I was able to use the EthernetAutodiscovery.Query() then parse the data to keep track of all other processors.


SimplSharp with HttpClient

 

When I run my code on my RMC4 I get an error of "Input string was not in a correct format".

here is my code: where 192.168.1.22:8080 is my local server and myCD.xml is my CD collection

byte[] vs = new HttpClient().GetBytes("192.168.1.22:8080/myCD.xml");
? ? ? ? ? ? var bytes = vs;
? ? ? ? ? ? CrestronConsole.PrintLine("bytes : {0}", bytes);

I believe your user interface class could inherit the program class which contains the instantiation of your panel, then you could reference it. But not entirely sure if that¡¯s the correct/best way to do it.
From a functional point of view, this won't work; if you inherit, you're not inheriting an already-instantiated object. It also makes more sense to keep UI and program logic separate, so semantically speaking I wouldn't advise this either. In design patterns like MVP, the different components are separated via interfaces in most cases.

Re: BACnet

 

A good starting point is to download this free app



and run it from a laptop on the same network as the BACNET equipment is supposed to be. If this tool finds the points, then Crestron will find them too. Then you have to decide if you have more than 50 points, in which case you need to pay $500 for a license. The BACNET implementation in 3/4 series, as many have found is clumsy in the extreme to program. The Cool Automation interface is your friend. It makes it MUCH simpler and faster to program

Re: Simpl# retrieving IP addresses of all processors from a single program.

 

Simpl# has the built in class?EthernetAutodiscovery.Query() which can take an enum indicating the network adapter to scan from.

You're missing the point. I'm not saying config files are bad, I use them myself but for a lot more than just setting a source name. And I don't agree you should blame a tech because you decided to create a config file using xml.
Even if you're just using them for source names, I think that's fine. Your alternatives are hardcoding them in the VTP or the program which means recompiling one file or another if you don't.

If a tech messes up a config file, they shouldn't be touching the program if they don't know how to deal with it in my opinion... (For the same reason a non-Cisco certified individual should probably not be touching the switch config if they aren't willing to embrace responsibility for any bad changes.)

Re: IP Scan in Simpl# #simplsharp

 

I initially wanted to discover every device on the network, not just Crestron devices, but for now, I can work with this.?

Thanks a lot!


Re: "splitting" a D3Pro program

 

I've actually had that happen with Simpl, but only a couple of times within the last year. I'm sure it's probably related, but this one D3Pro program is WAY worse than any others I've tried.

Thanks for the heads-up.

Thanks for the tips!

I'll check again if that dialog is under other windows but I've never seen it. Normally the xpanel host dialog sits above every other window.

Once it tries to connect it will prompt you for the username and password in a separate box.

Hve you checked/are you explicitly setting the level analog? I'm in transit right now but I seem to remember the level if not set programmatically could reset itself after a FW upgrade.

Hi

of course. If Crestron and hvac is on the same subnet. Just check the port restrictions on switch.?

If hvac is on different subnet. You can use BBMD. Check True blue support. It¡¯s nice documented.?
