CP4 -> D3 Program (on same CP4) -> CEN-GWEX-ER: No communication with CLW-SWDIMEX-P's

 

This is just a cautionary post (perhaps for my own sanity next time I run into the problem).

Had a project today that has a CP4 and roughly 40 or so CLW-SWDIMEX-P's.? For me, its easier to manage my lighting in D3 as I am used to it and its just a bit more manageable.? So, built a D3 program with a CEN-GWEX-ER in it with all wireless keypads attached.? Bing, bang boom, Done.? Load program to Slot 3 on the same CP4 my main program is running on.? Done.? IP table on the CP4 in toolbox says everything is connected on port 41794, ethernet intersystems good, CEN-GWEXER good, good to go.

IP Table on the gateway using port 41796, offline..... Well thats weird....

Test manager saying all things talking and working fine, time, loads, buttons, all good.? But local wireless keypads are still only working in local mode and not communicating to program..... Super weird.

SKIP FORWARD AFTER TRYING AUTH settings, changing ports, nothing working.

Roll back firmware on the CEN-GWEX-ER to previous forced auth, I think it was 4.230 or something.? Remove previous IP table, place new instance in, voila, talking on Port 41794.? All devices are working.

Looks like for some reason in how D3 is building or loading the project, I havent exactly determined if this can even be changed, it will not set the port to the secure port of 41796 and it will not work.? So rolling back the firmware on the gateway so authentication is disabled, allowed everything to work correctly.

Just a heads up if anyone runs into said issue.? Feel free to comment if I should have done something else, or missed something.

Thanks!

Yup, got all that...Just was wondering what the reserved join is supposed to do...


Re: Crestron Home simple relay driver

 

As a quick fix, if you can keep the CP3 just for the ports and to run a SIMPL Windows program to continue to control open, close and stop then you can link that program to CP4-R and use our Crestron Home Bridge extensions to link SIMPL Windows and Crestron Home. There are several components in the free version which should allow for controlling your shades (i.e. the button component is probably all you need.)


Re: Crestron Home simple relay driver

 

I wrote an article for Residential Tech Today on writing an extension driver for Crestron Home. ? I¡¯m traveling right now so providing a link is a bit challenging. If you search for my name on the magazine web site you should be able to find the article. There is a link in the article to the example code on my github.?

Hope this helps?

Hello,
?
I have installation where old CP3 gear is working as extension for four motorized relay controlled shades. I want to remove CP3 and use brand new CP4-R for all devices in the room.

I can control "open" and "close" but "stop" is managed in CP3 logic.

I want to start learn S# and Crestron Home but I need quick help so my question is - is there anyone who could share any simple driver for Crestron Home?
?
I would be very grateful!


Re: VTP Reserved Join: Start SONOS

 

For the iPad, I always use SIMPL to jump to Sonos instead of a reserved join in VTPRO.? Both the Crestron Go App and even the old Mobile G Pro have a device extender in SIMPL to jump to a URL.? In this case that URL would be "sonos-2://".

For the TSW-x60, it is stuck on an older Android version that no longer is supported by Sonos.? Your only option here is to use a Sonos system with S-1 installed for the TSW-X60 Sonos app to work.? Switching to the Sonos S-2 app will break the TSW-x60 Sonos app.

Yes I had this problem too. From memory I converted it to a different panel file that worked to test

Your description sounds more like what happens when something isn't right with Authentication/SSL/SetCSAuthentication. Does the TSR's IP Table show online?

The bit about using a IP-ID from a TSW makes me doubt the relevance of my issues. Is the .sgd the program is referencing what is loaded on the TSR?

Sonos with extron

 

Hello people,
I hope y'all doing great. Sorry for posting this here but this place is the closest to where I can find solution to my problem.
Is there a way of integrating Sonos port with extron control processor? There is an API for Sonos and I found a python library too( extron uses drivers written in python). is this the way to go about it?
https://github.com/SoCo/SoCo this is link where I found the Sonos API parsed in python.


VTP Reserved Join: Start SONOS

 

Hi All,
I'm working on an old project for another dealer and found a button with a res. join of 28511. this renders 'Start SONOS'
I thought that this was interesting given the suffering that I (and others) have experienced with.

Does anyone have an idea what it's for???
It was on a TSW-1060 project, so maybe it is to launch the internal app, which no longer works...
I don't have a x60 unit to test, tried it on an iPAD with Sonos installed, but it doesn't seem to do anything...


Re: where do programmer's go

 

I am a programmer, and have always had regular salary jobs.? Just do a Google search for AV integrators in the area you live/want to live and look at their job postings or give them a call. it always worked for me.

TSR-310 xPanel test

 

Hi All,
I'm testing a system in my lab that I upgraded from an older version, and I'm having issues testing the TSR-310 files.
I basically get the 'homepage' frame but none of the programmatically controlled elements show up.?
The IPTable shows it online, and if I use an IP-ID from a TSW, I get some activity.

Just wondering if anyone has seen issues with TSR/xPanel...TIA!


Re: DSC PowerSeries Neo

 

in full disclosure, I have never dealt with the CCD elements, but my download zip file does contain a .PKG file.
If this is what you're missing, reach out to me directly and I'll email it to you. I would post but I think that's against the rules!...:)


Re: MTX-3 PTX-3

 

Yea at that point they are junk. Unless you want to pay for repair.?


Re: Sending IP commands to Crestron end points from third party software

 

Maybe TCP/Server ?


Sending IP commands to Crestron end points from third party software

 

Does anyone know or found any TCP/IP commands that can be sent to Crestron end points TX-201, RMCs and scalers to send IR, RS232 and CEC commands to connected equipment eg LCD Screens and Projectors from third party controllers/processers and software like packet sender. TIA.? ??


Re: Cisco 4.0

 

You have to extract informations from strings you receive from the cisco
It's not very hard, just need patience :)


Re: DSC PowerSeries Neo

 

I read through and looked through the links carefully, there's nothing I could not understand.

Control of third party products is often achieved by using/creating User Modules or Crestron Certified Drivers. These can be SIMPL modules (.umc), SIMPL+ modules (.usp), SIMPL# (.clz), or a combination of these file types.

The package contains no SIMPL nor driver modules at all, unlike the examples you have posted, all of them have at least a SMW file. This package file is obviously a dud.?

I have written to Crestron tech support, not sure if they'll reply, I hope they will.?


Re: PRO4 very slow to respond

 

I have the same issues with a CP4, and i think it become when there are a lot disconnected TCP connection...
You have to initialize the processor when there is a crash...

For the panels, the last update requires a gateway to ping, whatever the ip, the panel ping the gateway and disconnect if there is no response.
