Re: LED Sensor
Personally, I would use a garage door magnetic contact for this.? I've had great success with these Seco-Larm SM-226L-3Q Overhead Door Magnetic Contact, 2.75-inch Gap, Open/Closed Loop Circuits (3 Wires), 24" Armored Wire Leads, Weatherproof I have used this ELK sensitive relay for many projects including wiring it in parallel with an LED to get a contact closure when an LED illuminates. I am getting reliable operation with only 1 milliamp driving the input. ELK-924 12/24 VDC, W/ 1.2 MA Trigger, 125 VAC, Sensitive Relay You may also have success using this light sensor - EIKS Photosensitive Resistor Module DC 5V Photo-resistor Relay Switch Please share what worked for you.

Re: Anyone noticing slowdowns/failures in loading to 4-series processors lately?
I also notice on most of the 4 series processors when I connect to them in System Info. it takes a few minutes to populate all the info fields. It will populate up to Slot 1 and show progress batr to about 70%, and then it will take a minute or more to finish populating everything else and complete. Sometimes it shows the other slots as "no program loaded" which I know is not the case, and I refresn the individual slots and it then correctly shows the running program. Something is fundamentally wrong with these 4 series processors. As much as we wanted to get away from Windows-based systems and on to Linux, there is definitely a negative to this as we all are seeing.? |

Re: Anyone noticing slowdowns/failures in loading to 4-series processors lately?
I've experienced similiar issues myself.? Based on some other rumblings in this particular forum other have suggested that this maybe either a f/w level issue or a toolbox issue.? I've tried a couple of different things with some luck.
?
Just my 2 cents.
?
I've had varying degrees of luck between these couple of different methods, but yes - I've seen processors hang that can take 15-20 minutes to get back to a useable state. |

Re: Anyone noticing slowdowns/failures in loading to 4-series processors lately?
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýMy occurrences of this are substantially lower than a few months ago but I am still seeing it.
Generally extended delays (more than a few minutes) are on the Toolbox side, not the processor side because PuTTY can connect and get a prompt when Toolbox refuses to.
If I can't get the processor to stop the program cleanly I delete the DLL (*.DLL) files from the app folder on the processor and then stopprog.
Either the program stops cleanly or it doesn't and when whatever process protection timer in the background gets irritated and tried to restart the program it fails because it can't load the DLL files.?
At that point if Toolbox is playing game and I'm not too aggravated the program can be loaded normally, otherwise FileZilla and progload command here I come...

What's the current best practice on stopping the program (so you can load new code)?
?
I've been using...?
PROGREG -p:1 -u
KILLPROG -p:1 ?
But I see an old post where Dave H recommended...
STOPPROG -P:#
PROGREGISTER -P:# -U DEL \SIMPL\App##\*.* ?
And someone else recommended just...
KILLPROG -p:1
?
The first method usually works for me, but occasionally things still get locked up for 20-30 minutes before I can get a prompt to do an INITIALIZE and get it back. I haven't tried getting web access to the processor when that happens (will try that next
time). I wonder if Dave H's third line (deleting the app folder contents) would keep me from having to do an INITIALIZE. I've also been using the Toolbox transfer dialog to send the new code, so maybe I need to switch to transferring via FileZilla and then
sending PROGRESET -p:1. I'm also using Toolbox Text Console for the most part, so should I switch to PuTTY or something like that?

Re: Crestron Home and SWAMP Amplifiers

GLS-ODT-C-CN issue
Hi All,
?
I have several GLS-ODT-C-CN installed in corridors and wardrobes.
They all work good but if nobody uses room for several hours the sensor seems to go into some kind of "standby" as when person enters the room it turns the lights on much later than it used to.? And after this it starts working rapid again.
Both US and PIR sensors are enabled. Timeout is set to 30 sec. Connected to DIN-CENCN-2
Did anybody see such behavior?
?
?
