Re: SIMPL calendar function
If you aren't a SIMPL+ programmer, use the "Event Scheduler 2 v1.2.0 (cm)" module found in SIMPL's Symbol Library / Module Database. |
Unable to connect to any 2 series processor with Toolbox
Good day all. Hope someone can assist me. I have not been programming for a while as I used my "alone time" during Covid to do all the upgrades to my system that I needed. I need to add a few lines to the program, but for some reason I am unable to upload/receive data via Toolbox (v 3.09.129.00). I have tried 3 different racks as well. Its connects but does not retrieve or send data. I tried a new Laptop and installed the software from previous down loads, but no luck. Tried to update all the software via Masterinstaller, but getting massage that FTP server address is incorrect. (Will look into this on Monday). in desperation I installed Viewport again and it connects and works fine.?
Has anyone experienced this before? Could it be some windows/firewall upgrade issue? Thanks Nelius |
BSS BLU Matrix Router
I am using the BSS BLU modules v1.4
I have a Matrix Router to control. This matrix router has two inputs to a single output. I have the Control Type as SourceMatrix. The [A] parameter is set to 1 as it is a single output. For the InputValue analog, I can send 1d or 2d to switch between either input. The control itself allows for either input or both inputs to be active. What do I do if I need both to be active? I assume I can set the inputValue to 1 and then pulse the Route input, set the InputValue to 2 and then pulse Route again. What will the ActualRoute output reflect when both are routed? OR do I need to use two instances of the module, where I have one of them set to input 1 and the other to input 2 and then look at each separately? |
Re: Cisco Touch 10 Layout
In these cases, there is still Crestron doing the control of the devices, just the Touch10 is the UI for the Crestron.? There is no direct control of other devices from the Cisco.
Look up "Cisco Room Control"? They have a UI editor (really just a web script that runs in the browser), that lets you add panels/buttons to a layout and assign Text and control ID's too.? Then on the Crestron side, it's all custom at that point, as the main CIsco module does not support any of the extra Room control stuff.? The API document is part of the normal API manual I believe, but I've also seen separate api manuals that cover just the room control commands/responses.? You'll have to do some custom Crestron coding to catch the messages from Cisco and to report back feedback status of buttons and guages etc. to update the UI. -- Jason Mussetter Control Systems Designer Mussetter Programming Services |

Re: More VC-4 - SIMPL Debugger
Got it!
I was erroneously thinking that the port # on the toolbox address entry was the 49300 port... but now I know that it was supposed to be the HTTPS port instead.
The "Port(if not default)" does not give any hint about this. Anyway, I was able to get this to work.? ?
Now, for the greater good I want to suggest Anydesk for those of you that need a quick way to get direct access to a remote system when all you have is somebody with a laptop on the other side.?
And by that I mean you can directly access the processor or VC4 in your laptop as if you were sitting inside of the far-end network. (Because I hate when you are constrained to using toolbox on a remote machine through Teamviewer, It makes me claustrophobic!)
?
The feature is called TCP Tunneling.
Here are the instructions: Once you have anydesk connected to the remote laptop, look for Actions -> Setup TCP Tunneling. Then in there you will punch the usual ports. Note that "remote host" is the IP of the crestron processor (or VC-4) on the other side of the network. The example shown here is what is needed to access an appliance box (non-VC4).? LocalPort? ? RemoteHost? ?????RemotePort 41794? ? ? ? 192.168.10.55? ? ? 41794 41796? ? ? ??192.168.10.55? ??? 41796??
22? ??? ????? ??192.168.10.55? ??? 22 ?
Once you have the TCP Tunneling rules in place, on your toolbox you have to enter the loopback IP in the address field: 127.0.0.1
So when toolbox connects it will go through this path: Toolbox -> loopsback into... -> Anydesk forwards to... -> the far-end Laptop, which in turn forwards to... -> the far-end crestron processor. The big advantage of all this is that it allows you direct access to a far-end processor without any need for VPN nor having to ask anybody to open ports on firewall etc.? All you need is somebody with a laptop running Anydesk on the far end. Thats it. For VC-4 the steps are the same as above but you also need to add rules for 49300 and also forward the HTTPS port, such as this: LocalPort? ? RemoteHost? ?????RemotePort
41794? ? ? ? 192.168.10.55? ? ? 41794 41796? ? ? ??192.168.10.55? ??? 41796??
22? ??? ????? ??192.168.10.55? ??? 22 49300? ? ? ? 192.168.10.55?? ? ?49300 443? ? ? ? ? ??192.168.10.55?? ? ?443
One final note is that AnyDesk by default has TCPTunneling grayed out. The person on the other laptop must explicitly tick a box allowing you to use this feature. If you poke around the settings, you can configure a laptop to give you convenient unattended access.
I highly recommend AnyDesk, and no, I'm not being sponsored by them :) |

CLX-2DIUMU8 - Are there any out there in the world?
Crestron dealer here.? I'm looking for 5 CLX-2DIMU8 modules.? If anyone has any of them they're willing to part with, I would greatly appreciate it.? I realize this is probably a fruitless effort, but having exhausted many other avenues, it's worth a shot.
Thanks, Ryan Meissner |
Re: Cisco Touch 10 Layout
Ressurecting an old thread, sorry.
Yes, I understand the advantages of controlling a Crestron system via the Cisco touch 10 but how? Where is the documentation for that, adding buttons, setting up connections to third party devices, sending custom commands etc, etc. Everybody says it can be done, but nobody can tell me how. Is there an online training, or documentation, something to point me in the right direction? A customer asked about a Qsys Core being controlled by the touch 10, apparently yes, it can be done also.... but how? Do I have to be a Cisco engineer to have access to that? Thank you for any pointers !? |
Re: TST902
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHear how it works. There are files supplied by Crestron that is loaded to the programmers pc that installs a WiFi definition for the TST-902.?On the TST-902 there are some commands that need to be issued to disable the infinet and add a IPT entry.

Re: TST902
I would also like to know the answer to this. I've only ever installed a few of these. Seems like you have to have a gateway for control, but it has built-in Wi-Fi that can't be used for control. Never understood this. I could understand needing the gateway maybe for initial installation and configuration, but then once the tst gets an IP address, why couldn't you let it control a processor by IP ?

Re: More VC-4 - SIMPL Debugger
I just mocked this up with no issue.? You probably can't forward 443, nor should you.? Pick a random port and setup your router to forward that to 443.? Also forward 49300, as you have already.? In the VC setup on toolbox add the random port.? This is under the token field in Port.
