Topics in Home Automation - New Article in Residential Tech Today
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýMy latest article, "How SimpliSafe Compares to a Traditional Security System¡± is being published by the good folks at Residential Tech Today Magazine on their web site.
SimpliSafe is one of the most popular DIY installed alarm systems. This article looks at how a SimpliSafe alarm system compares with a traditional alarm system that requires professional installation. As part of that comparison it examines how a SimpliSafe alarm system fits into an overall smart home.
You can find the article here:
For those interested in earlier articles that I've written, you can find those here:
Finally, for those that want to see even more content I've written about smart home technology you can find that here:

Data Type Conversion
#simplsharp
I am having difficulty understanding datatype conversion from SIMPL# to SIMPL+. Currently, I am trying to parse return data from SIMPL+ using my SIMPL# library. The return data comes into SIMPL# as a SimplSharpString. I parse the string then attempt to convert it to a USHORT so that I can have it come out of my SIMPL+ module as an analog signal. Does anyone know a good resource for understanding datatype conversion between SIMPL# and SIMPL+? CALLBACK FUNCTION PJLampHoursDataEventHandler(INTEGER hours) { LampHours = hours; ? } SIMPL+ Delegate Registration:
RegisterDelegate(myPjClass, PJLampStatusEvent, PJLampHoursDataEventHandler);
Event Definition SIMPL#: ? ? ? ? public delegate void PJLampDataHandler(ushort data);
? ? ? ? public PJLampDataHandler PJLampStatusEvent { set; get; }
Part of my SIMPL# CheckResponse Definition:? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? public void CheckResponse(SimplSharpString data) ? ? ? ? {
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? else if (data.ToString().Contains(ack))
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? {
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ParseReturnData(data);
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? }
Part of my SIMPL# ParseReturnData: ? ? ? ? public void ParseReturnData(SimplSharpString data)
? ? ? ? {
? ? ? ? ? ? ushort PjLampHours = new ushort(); ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? case 3: //Lamp ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? try
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? {
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? holder = data.ToString().Substring(3, 1);
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? //uShortHolder = (ushort)Convert.ToInt32(data.ToString().Substring(3, 1), 16);
?
?
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? if (debug > 0)
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? {
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? CrestronConsole.Print("\n\rtest holder = {0}", holder);
?
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? //CrestronConsole.Print("\n\rtest uShortholder = {0}", uShortHolder.ToString());
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? }
?
?
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? PjLampHours = (ushort)Convert.ToInt16(holder, 32);
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? //PjLampHours = (ushort)Convert.ToInt16(data.ToString().Substring(3, 1), 32);
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? //PjLampHours = (ushort)Convert.ToInt32(data.ToString().Substring(3, 1), 16);
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? PJLampStatusEvent(PjLampHours);
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? }
SIMPL# Print to Console: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? if (debug > 0) CrestronConsole.Print("\n\rCurrent PJ Settings: \n\rPjpowerState: {0}\n\rPjcurrentInput: {1}\n\rPjLampHours: {2}\n\rPjcurrentVolume: {3}", Convert.ToString(PjpowerState), Convert.ToString(PjcurrentInput), Convert.ToString(PjLampHours), Convert.ToString(PjcurrentVolume));
What I am seeing in console: Current PJ Settings:?
PjpowerState: 0
PjcurrentInput: 0
PjLampHours: 0
PjcurrentVolume: 0

Re: CNTBLOCK brain fart
Perhaps someone here smarter then me can explain why Crestron insists that a cresnet device can only be powered by a single power supply?? 2-24 vdc power supplies in parallel is still 24 vdc.? There is no phase issues like you could run into like you could with 24 vac.? The volts are the same just more capacity.

Re: CH5 web panel release
After the first load it starts a 60 day count down timer for a free trail.? It is automatic and my timer started today.? From what I read it sounds like you can restore your processor and reset the timer.? This would be for demo purposes, of course.? The command?CRESTRONONETPR? will report the days left.??

Hi? i am having an issue with the dali driver of led strip,
It shows failure when addressed on the dali commissioning tool but i can control the intensity of the light . But when i add it to a group for my crestron home app, the? Slider keeps on changing percentage, the light intensity doesnt change physically but when i try to use the all off command , most of the time it does not shut the strip light because the intensity keeps on changing by itself. What should i do! |

Re: Baimp Nexia
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýA router can have only one input selected per output so you don¡¯t have to worry about ¡®cleaning up¡¯ active if you¡¯re using a router; a mixer can have multiple inputs so depending on the size of the mixer if you want to enforce an interlock it may be better to store that output in a series of limited presets to ensure you can¡¯t get into a state where multiple inputs are inadvertently active at the same time. ? In theory the Crestron modules using the mute will work (as another poster mentioned) but they are very temperamental on the 3 and 4 series so in the couple systems I still have Audias floating around (they¡¯re duct-tape-and-bandaid systems until the client moves into a new building later this year) I just have the RTRMUTEXP commands in an SIO ? -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ?
