Re: Crestron Lighting (CLX) interfaces with DMX

The DIN-SACN-DMX is actually a Enttec DIN-ODE-MK2.

DIN-SACN-DMX (AKA Enttec DIN-ETHERGATE) set sACN or Art-Net output to match the corresponding universe output of the Console -> CG-DMX-512, etc, etc, etc...

Re: Newtonsoft.JSON 4.0.8.0 dependency

 

Thats why I am confused, I only started getting the error after updating EVERYTHING.? I usually just do the latest database version / studio / simpl etc... from the master installer before I start updating my code.? After compiling I noticed the error on the old version of the modules so I got the new version of the modules I was using from marketplace (which listed version 1.0 as the old version and version 2.0 as the new version).? The Marketplace said only works with database 200+ on BOTH marketplace items that I am using.

Now if I fully update studio/database/device database/do all updates in studio and ensure i'm only using the newer version of the modules from marketplace i'm still getting the error.? I only installed the older versions per the posts here that said that was the work around to the compile error.

I think you need to gather some more information on the console and how it is communicating ¨C i understand that?s already there and you ¡°just¡± need to interface with it?

Ollie, I think that this looks like the right solution, thanks!
The Console has ethernet jacks but I don't think that they integrate with its DMX controls so a traditional XLR-type connection would likely be the right stuff.
Do you or any others know of a good module for this application, or should I just get the protocol and figure out the handful of commands/FB that I need??

TIA!

Re: NAX in Simpl

 

Yes, I was successful, and it works. I've tested across multiple 8ZSA units on several projects.


Re: DM NVX creates a broadcast storm for ~2 minutes every ~ 30 minutes

 

If your CISCO switch supports this, try to enable "Storm Protection" on the IGMP Querier.? This fixed this problem on a job - same symptom, network goes down every few minutes.


Re: NAX in Simpl

 

Have you tried using the Crestron NAX router module along with the DM-NAX-8ZSA and 16AIN router interface modules? These simplify things a whole bunch.?

Were you actually successful in using the router?? When I tried it on a test bench it didn't kick out anything I was looking for.? Specifically, the 17 input between multiple units, it would just return 1's back for anything past unit 1.? We had to write custom blocks to handle multiple units and streams.


Re: Crestron Lighting (CLX) interfaces with DMX

The initial post says ?The DMX can/will be ethernet-based...¡°.

That implies that the console might be able to send the commands directly via an IP-based protocol and doesn?t need to be converted.

It might be even simpler that the console is able to send out some sort of trigger-events directly to a TCP/Client/Server on the Crestron processor.

But it would be good to get some more information on the capabilities of the console.

I guess that may be an option - but it would be helpful if you could spell it out?

I'm guessing the DMX console /may/ be DMX-512 out only, so what device should be used to convert serial DMX to Artnet over IP, and then how does that IP stream get consumed by the Crestron processor?? When you say OSC do you mean the Open Sound Control protocol?? I'm not aware of any Crestron modules for that (we did support it for a project and it was a horrible thing to implement).

Or you could:
Console --(3 core DMX cable)--> CG-DMX-512 --(Serial cable)--> Crestron processor/ISC symbol/Logic --Cresnet--> CLX lighting

It may be more low-brow compared to Artnet, but it "feels" a lot simpler to implement?

Thanks, could you expand on the "one way sync to Dropbox"? Are you using another app to do this?


Find Touchpanel Mac s#

 

Anyone know if its possible to pull the mac of the touchpanel? I have the mac of the processor, but cant seem to find more than the IP and IPID of the registered panels.


Re: DM NVX creates a broadcast storm for ~2 minutes every ~ 30 minutes

 

I know this is a long shot, but I just had a weird case where a devices on another VLAN was using IGMP v3 with PIM protocol (at least that is what an internet search said it was).? The devices were ATT Uverse boxes.? Somehow it was screwing up the IGMP v2 snooping on my VLAN and it took the whole network down -- both ATT and my stuff.? I had IGMP snooping disable on the port with the ATT IPTV -- actually I tried all types of combination of switch settings.? Somehow, these IGMP v3 packets totally screw up switch.? The switch itself only did IGMP v1 or v2.? It did not support IGMP v3.? In my case, it was not essential that I did IGMP snooping on this switch.? Disabling IGMP snooping solved the problem and everything started working okay.? Probably a firmware bug in the switch I am using where if it sees any IGMP v3 packets, it bombs out.? The only reason I had to do this in the first place was because two rooms had just one CAT5e each and I needed to put an access point and a ATT Uverse box in those rooms.? The ATT Uverse boxes only had Ethernet going to them.


Re: DM NVX creates a broadcast storm for ~2 minutes every ~ 30 minutes

 

I'm not sure yet. It could be a number of things.?


Re: DM NVX creates a broadcast storm for ~2 minutes every ~ 30 minutes

 

Any idea why 2 min every 30 min?


Re: DM NVX creates a broadcast storm for ~2 minutes every ~ 30 minutes

 

Let me double check igmp config. ?If not I will be happy to share privately!

thank you!


Re: DM NVX creates a broadcast storm for ~2 minutes every ~ 30 minutes

 

After looking through the wireshark I noticed a few more things.?

You mentioned different devices having different firmware, have you tested audio to make sure it is passing to all the endpoints? PTP is related to the AES67 audio stream.?

Further down it looks like the storm is less of a storm and more of a problem with IGMP Snooping and Querier. The multicast packets should not be hitting your PC/laptop that is capturing the packets.

To further help, are you willing to share the switch config?


Re: DM NVX creates a broadcast storm for ~2 minutes every ~ 30 minutes

 

Can you verify the Group registrations are working?

The command should look something like "show ip igmp snooping groups"
The output should show a group for each encoder and as the decoders subscribe to the stream, they will join a group.?

Also wondering, does this still happen even when no routes are made?


Re: Parallels Folder Structure

 

The DBs and apps are within windows, with the created program files (SIMPL S+ VTPro etc) on the Mac side. I use a one way sync to DropBox.

Parallels Folder Structure

 

Hi All,?

Just moved back to a MacBook Pro after using Dell for a few years. For anybody who's also using parallels could you enlighten me to your folder structure/layout?

I use dropbox (on the Mac side) and have my modules & IR library stored within the dropbox. Unfortunately when trying to compile in SIMPL I get errors along the line of "cannot find module", its like SIMPL doesn't have access to the shared folders where the modules are stored?
