Attended the CSP Construct Webinar last week and they will be releasing matching html5 control page templates for both Teams Rooms and Zoom Room Controls sometime in July.

The actual answer from Crestron to save a construct project to another name is to open a new instance of Construct. Copy your current project to the new one. All the used dependencies and used assets should be copied to the new project.?

Im working on project to provide audio,display,source selection and codec controls on a crestron touchpanel.

There is no poly touchpanel in the room and all controls will be via crestron touchpanel 770 in zoom mode.

I know you’ve got the GLS-EM-MCU but I feel like a Shelly energy monitoring unit might be much easier to work with here. It looks like it has a robust api and historical data.

Thanks for that information.

I am mostly trying to guesstimate time at this point. If willing, can you send me an example of what you did on the Crestron side?

This is outside of what I typically do and don't want to get burnt too bad figuring the process out.

It was less than a day. NewBlue has examples for doing dynamic data into their templates. I just needed to implement the websocket portion. The Crestron program handles formatting strings as json so that they are easy to parse with javascript on the NewBlue side. I used this websocket library on the NewBlue side.

Do you have the internal pull-up enabled or disabled?

The last time I did any integration with NewBlue, I used their custom API option to create a websocket from NewBlue back to a Crestron processor. I used the Control Concepts WebSocket Lite on the Crestron side since I didn't need anything fancy there. On the NewBlue side, you have to write the Javascript to open the socket, and do any parsing back into their internal API. Once I figured out how to put the pieces together, it worked well for our application. This was driving data from a ringside TSW panel at an MMA event.

Hi All,
I have a demo system here at the home/lab and am deploying another GLS-EM-MCU for a client int he coming weeks. I was expecting the retrieval of historical log data from the MCU to be much simpler but it appears that you have to program your processor to pull the data using Fusion EM modules and then it will create a local file you can retrieve. Cant find an actual demo program for Fusion EM, just RV... and the EM modules are nowhere near intuitive. I have a line out to the Fusion group but in the meantime, does anybody here have experience with setting one of these puppies up?

I am using :

RMC4 proc
GLS-EM-MCU

GLS-EM-CTI-2P21
Assorted 20-50-200-400A CTs

monitoring 2 phase 100A at home?
monitoring single phase 400A (off grid solar/battery with generator backup) at the project

I also need to setup email alerts and was going to poke around for the latest greatest email module, paid license or whatever works best... any pointers on what you prefer atm let me know!

Has anyone here worked with the NewBlue Fusion 3 Titler to populate Lower 3rd data from a Crestron system.

The main idea is to take information from queue of speakers and then sendspecifict information to the titler application so that it will populate an on screen graphic with whoever is currently speaking.

Hello.
I built my first project in construct, but the customer is unsure of what he wants? so I want to create a new version with the date of today, just in case he changes his mind so I don't have to recreate all the stuff I deleted in the new version... Thing that we all do in any program with the "save as" function.
How the hell do I do that? There's no "save as" option!

Also, accessory question, I tried to find a way to "auto save" every 5 minutes like I do with VTPro but can't find the option. Some people (like me) still work with desktops and sh1t can happen.
I took the habit of clicking "save all" every now and then but if I ever forget and the power goes, or the computer crashes, I'm screwed.

I'm, trying to get used to this new software and the learning curve is not as steep as I thought anyway.

Thanks for any insight.

Thank you!

Hi guys,

A few years back I did a large project using TCL displays as TCL were the sponsor for the client.? ?We worked with TCL directly in China and they implemented an IP control protocol for us in their Android and non android screens.? It was painful but IP control was the only way I could control the many hundreds of screens we needed to.? Apparently they were going to implement the protocol in all screens from then on.? I have not used a TCL screen since that project so I have never had the chance to see if their current screens still have this functionality.??

Having said that, I do know that over the years our client has had to replace many screens due to damage/failure etc and as far as I know, all the replacements are working correctly with our Crestron IP control solution so there is a chance that they did implement it.?

It wasnt a full featured API. We only needed certain functionality so we limited it to the following
* Source Input select & FB
* Volume (discrete and ramping) & FB
* TV Channel select & FB
* Power Off (TCP)
* MAC Address FB - to allow us to retrieve and use the MAC in the WOL string for Power On.? (No TCP power on unfrtunately).?

The protocol was dead simple but I wont share it publicly.? If someone with a TCL screen wants to PM me, I can send across some of the commands for you to try and see if they work or not.? No guarantees though!?

A while back Adobe Air changed hands and is apparently handled by Harmon now. To get the XPanel functioning correctly you need to download and install the runtime from their website found here:



That should get your XPanel up and going.?

You might try connecting via USB instead.? I've had cases with Crestron/toolbox stops work with Ethernet but USB is fine.? Usually a reboot on my computer and the CP4 resolves the issue.

You might also check if your computer is on the BLOCK IP or BLOCK USER list.? Default is something like 2 or 3 failed login attempts and you permanently locked on.

Also there are two versions of the CP4.? Newer ones have a different Ethernet adapter that requires a minimum level of software and firmware.? My guess you are on the latest and greatest so probably not a issue.

Then again, if you are running antivirus software, try turning it off and the firewall.

You might try loading a simple SIMPL program and see if that works.? The series 4 seem much less forgiven in have some type of program loop in your code.? I had a case where a module I had used for years had a couple of SIMPL symbols feedback back on themself and causing a lot of signal changes.? The module works fine on Series 3 processors but for some reason the series 4 could not tolerant this loop.? Everything worked fine until I tried using SIMPL debugger -- same issue as you where debugger would not start.

Can you reliably connect to the CP4 via ToolBox/Text Console??

I just want to Save As a Vt project as XPANEL to test with onsite.
When compiling, I get a message that installer.air cannot be copied....

I know Crestron can't make anything quick and easy, but what am I missing?

Am stuck in a situation where Simpl Debug will not connect with a CP4.?
Either I get the 'waiting for device to initialize' or the 'cannot get any program information from the connected device....' messages.?
I have updated toolbox to the latest and that does not help.?
The CP4 in question is accessible on the network as I can access its web page. However, only about 10% of the time can I get Debug to actually start properly.?

Appreciate any help others have to offer. Am burning a LOT of time on this.... - Tray
