Re: UDP 'server' is this possible

To receive UDP traffic the IP address has to match what's set on the UDP/IP client.? Set it to 0.0.0.0 to receive from anywhere, 192.168.1.0 to receive from that subnet, or a specific IP to receive from.? Same as for a TCP/IP Server device.

Most likely because that property does only show (at least as far as I can remember, and I don't have a PC with me right now to test this) if the project was created with the XPanel 2.0 Smart Graphics hardware definition and later saved as another hardware panel type.?

I was just making a change to a TSW that I've been working on over the past couple of months.

?

I've never paid any attention to the project properties apart from to change the theme.

Always seen the XPanel properties and never given it any thought, it's a TSW in'nt - why would I?

?

So for giggles, and I was just looking for something to take mind off my current project, decided to set it up to match my program.

?

Well blow me, no more having to enter the annoying connection settings in the XPanel, when clicking on a vtz.

How has that passed me by for goodness knows how long :)

Not all Radio stations are being broadcast in the same way. Might want to post the stations you would be using to have someone test on the different options

Re: UDP 'server' is this possible

#255377

UDP is stateless, meaning they don't actually make a connection per say. One talks and just hope the others are listening. 
In simpl and S+ you have a single definition for UDP communications. You would use it for both sides.

UDP 'server' is this possible

#255376
Edited

In the past when I've been testing modules for kit I don't have in the office, that connect through TCP/IP, I've simply hosted a TCP server on another processor to mimic the device.

?

I need to do something similar with a device (Novastar H2) that only uses UDP for comms.

Is it possible to host a UDP 'sever' on a processor and if so how?

?

Also, I'm not a network expert and have little understanding of UDP outside of sending stuff to/from UDP devices.

Sorry, I initially replied on mobile and was a bit harried…

For multicast you need to use the multicast group ID as the address so that the processor/OS knows it needs to send the IGMP Join message to the switch. If you use the source IP address, much like 0.0.0.0 the switch has no idea that it needs to forward the multicast traffic (and the processor may or may not be listening for multicast traffic from that source IP)

In this case, would I'd just use the IP of the sending device rather than zeroes for the octets; I'll keep my fingers crossed that this will function.

You would not be able to use 0.0.0.0 in this case on a properly configured network as the device needs to send a "join" message to the switch to let it know that it is interested in getting that data.

Multicast join/leave has been on-again-off again depending on firmware version (though processors with internal routers have been the most problematic so if you encounter issues you may be served to try upgrading or downgrading fw

Has anyone used the IP2IR as a sensor input?

?

Apparently it broadcasts state changes via udp on port 9132, using a multicast IP of 239.255.250.250.?

Does the UDP symbol in simpl windows listen on multicast IP’s like that? ?I’ve not had a manufacturer specify a multicast IP in the past, just UDP in general, and I most often specify 0.0.0.0 on the symbol.?

Thanks,

There are video on YouTube. Just search Crestron Construct.

They are a bit crap though and don't go into enough depth.

Aqara says that the batteries should last 10 months based on locking/unlocking of 10 times per day.? The door I put the lock on to test it is a side door to my garage.? It only gets used about once per day.? So, I think Aqara's 10 month estimate should be about right for a door used on a regular basis.
