Hi
I'm looking for a battery operated sensor that will be triggered when someone is standing within ~1 foot of the sensor.? A normal motion sensor won't work for this application because it will sense when a person is much farther away.? Protocol really doesn't matter.? It could be Zigbee, Z-Wave, or WiFi. Anyone ever see anything like this? Thanks in advance for the help Jay |
Re: Clock Audio CDT-100 protocol
Not sure that it's fair to say the official module is unstable as it is currently running without issue in numerous systems. If you have any specific problems with the module, please reach out to us at CCI for support. We are always looking for opportunities to improve and fix any issues with our modules when they arise.

Re: Opening SMW Projects
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýJust to be clear, the 4-series processors are much faster (and truly multithreaded which can open its own set of challenges for ¡®bad¡¯ programming)¡ but the speed of the CPU/RAM/etc. in the processor has nothing to do with the software tools running on your PC which are bound by the PC¡¯s CPU/RAM/thread prioritization/etc. (and it wouldn¡¯t surprise me if the 4-series compile is marginally slower than a 3-series compile on the same HW just because there¡¯s a little more to do, but I haven¡¯t benchmarked it. ? -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ?

Re: On-board Intel HD Graphics and Crestron HD-DA2-4K-E
Hi,
we¡¯ve seen the snow effect with non crestron kit with when switching between multiple sources. ?Deselection and re selection of sources always fixed the problem. Not ideal¡ In the end we found a really cheap ?10 DA on Amazon which ?acted as a device to remove the DHCP signal. ? on that occasion the problem was the Apple TV, but affected the next selection, generally the PC. Its a fix but doesn¡¯t really address the real problem. |
On-board Intel HD Graphics and Crestron HD-DA2-4K-E
We are experiencing an issue with HDCP and a very specific setup. We have a small form-factor PC connected to a Crestron HD-DA2-4K-E. Output 1 of the DA goes to a DMPS3-4K-150-C, output 2 of the DA goes to a 1080p monitor. The DM output is connected to the HDBaseT port on an Epson Pro series projector. This way, the local monitor always displays the PC regardless of what is selected on the DMPS.
For the most part, this setup works great for basic presentations, but things go a little haywire with HDCP content. When we start playing HDCP video, the image can be seen through the local monitor and projector. But when you stop the HDCP content, the projector switches to what can only be described as digital snow. The local monitor will sometimes go black, or sometimes it will continue to display the PC. We¡¯ve trace this to the DA and DMPS. Remove the DA, and the problem doesn¡¯t occur. Remove the DMPS, and the problem doesn¡¯t occur. I¡¯ve tested this with several PC¡¯s and it only seems to happen with onboard Intel HD graphics chipsets. Switching to a PC with Nvidia or AMD Radeon graphics eliminates the issue. I would switch to a different PC if we didn¡¯t have 100+ rooms with this setup installed. Restarting the DA resolves the problem, flipping the EDID switch resolves the problem. Has anyone else seen this or have a recommendation for what we can do to remedy the problem? Thanks in advance. |

Qsc cameras with a USB io bridge seems to work well. And a core110f obviously...?

But the thing I have notice with the Series 4 and and the latest versions of Crestron software is it seems that things have gotten so Slow.? Compile times seem to be much longer and things just crash sometimes.? And I thought the series 4 processors where suppose to be so much quicker.? All I know is when I program a Series 2 or 3 nowadays, it seems to go so much quicker and smoother.? But I might add that when I program in Series 2 or 3 today, I use Crestron software from the early 2020 before the software could do a Series 4.? It is only when I program a Series 4 do I use the latest software. One final note however is I do all my SIMPL/SIMPL+/VTPRO programming from a Windows 7 VM. So Windows 10 or 11 may be different. I only use a Windows 10 VM for SIMPL# as I highly doubt Visual Studio 2019 would work on Windows 7. Just don't like dealing with the bloat and constant updates with Window 10.? Of course I don't surt the Internet with Windows 7 (nor Windows 10 as that goes) and all my Windows VMs are destroyed after each use so any corruption that may occur gets wiped clean after a session. YMMV |

Re: Opening SMW Projects
Chris,
When I start programming, I instinctively start 3 instances of Simpl Windows. One is for my main program, and the other 2 for auxiliary programs or module edits. What is a PITA for me is that the order of the programs on the Windows taskbar seem to move around randomly with compiles. So, my main program that I opened first, which should be the first tab, moves around when I perform a compile. Brian |
Re: Opening SMW Projects
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI have never heard that advice and virtually always launch SIMPL via the file (double clicking the SMW, using the arrow keys to highlight the SMW and pressing enter, or using the ¡°Open SMW¡± function of our internal source management tool). ? -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ?

Opening SMW Projects
Hi All,
In the long-past, I would routinely open projects by 2x-clicking the .smw project file, which would start a new instance of SMW and open the project together. At some point in the last few years, I had heard that this was no longer recommended, and we were supposed to always open a fresh instance of SMW and THEN browse/open the project from SMW. This is a pain... what are other doing, and have any found that the 'new' method is really necessary?? TIA! |
Re: USB 3.0 Camera splitting/routing options?

I have used Icron Raven USB 3.0 extenders and most recently the Inogeni Toggle USB 3.0 switcher which has RS-232 control.
USB 3.0 switching and extending still seem relatively new so there are not a lot of products and they can be quirky. -ady |

Re: NVX-363 resolutions

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýSpeaking about interlaced sources does anyone know if nvx always deinterlaces prior to encoding? ??
Or is there a way to output an interlaced stream when subscribed to an interlaced source so that your target device can do the deinterlacing ?instead of nvx doing the deinterlacing ??

USB 3.0 Camera splitting/routing options?
#usb
I'm hoping some of y'all have found a solution to this seemingly simple problem.? With the increasing prevalence of USB 3.0 only cameras to UC *and* BYOD destination requirements, have any of y'all found a way to route or split a USB3.0 Camera video signal without breaking out to HDMI? I have a customer with a small room with a USB camera, UC engine and want BYOD also. I know USB isn't built to be "split" to two destinations but that's what we need to do, preferably w/o HDMI or other adapters.
Thanks in advance. Micah Thurlow |
