D3 Pro 3.0.31 Scheduler Broken?

Dave
 

Hi All,

Just wondered if anyone else had seen issues with the Scheduler in the latest version of D3Pro? Upgraded and then did some work on an existing project and now if wont work - loads of errors on building the project around no driving source.

Any workarounds or anything? I have reported to TrueBlue.

Thanks

Dave


Re: tpmc 10 connectivity

 

The tpmc-10 is finicky with what APs it will connect with ( you can get wifi but no control connection). I have found with mine that it works with only these of several i have tried:
Draytek 800 something ap, d-link 755 something ap, and the really old linksys wap54g.

I cannot get connection for control even though wireless is great with:
Apple anything, netgear wap 102 and 103, cisco routers, netgear wireless router, and a few others.

This applies to my 4xg's also. The other clue is that if i turn on b/g/n mode it looses connection for crestron on my current Draytek units. The wifi strength will e great but never gets control connection to my pro2 until i turn off "n". A few others settings also kill control even though wifi is great.

Hope that helps


NEC X461S Rs232 Modules?!

 

Hi guys!


Anyone made a module for this series from NEC?
The ones i have tried dosent work with this screen.
I get the main functions to work (on/off, inputs) but i cant get the screen to report powerstatus after the screen turns off.

It starts from standby, so its not a power-save issue.

Maybe someone here is a NEC expert? ;)

All info is needed. If someone has a Serial I/O with commands, that will help as well!

Re: Sendmail with remote attachment.

 

i did something similar but not image , text , this idea is a great idea , i can link my crestron Camera ,to send a picture of the user since password log-in has been entered then send it through mail .

don't forget you can deal with picture as data , by certain ways , hexdata .

Re: Sendmail with remote attachment.

 

Probably more work than its worth but the only way I see it working would be to use some S+ to grab the snapshot, save it as temp.jpg on the procesor's compact flash (or NVRAMDISK if small enough) and then pass that file to sendmailadvance

Re: Vivint

 

Yes, people are really going for this. I call it end point selling.
You just show them the Alarm.com app with the Cameras, Thermostats, and
Locks, and the Security Arm/Disarm and it pretty much sells itself if
you are just doing
basic automation. Not a Crestron client. Vivint is in our area and
selling a lot of them. We are also dealers of 2Gig and just getting
going with it in a separate security company under our umbrella.

Are people going for this? Absolutely. Vivint hasn't made it out to my
market, yet, but it's only a matter of time. They use the 2GIG security
panels and I for one think they're great, for what they are. They bring
home automation to a customer who isn't even on Crestron's radar. Their
thermostats are (retail-wise) $250, their light switches can be had on
Amazon for ~$50, their cameras are ~$200.

Vivint is making an ABSOLUTE MINT with this stuff. A poorly-trained
monkey could install it, it's really that easy. Imagine just 1,000
account at $60 a month. I'll let you do the math.

Their basic energy management package gives you a smart thermostat,

buy all that outright in a few months.

If people are going for this, I'm in the wrong market.


Re: TPS-2000L Buttons ?

Chip
 

Think you're going to have to call Crestron directly on that one.

If they say they're not doing engraving anymore, there is at least one other company that was doing similar engraving with more/better options than Crestron. Don't remember the name, but they used to post here back in the day...

VBrick SDK anyone?

 

I'm using the module on the Crestron site, have called VBrick and they say the SDK is the same across the encoder line, the guy setting up the VBrick says it's setup properly...I'm stuck in the middle. :)

I've used the module on other devices and it's been fine, so I'm thinking something isn't setup right, but want to cover all my bases.


Re: Crestron Programmer Position in Pacific NW

 

I paid a visit to Westport MANY moons ago as a Crestron employee to do a one day D3/lighting training and, of course, to give away the blue kool-aide. Very cool setup you guys have up there. I could live without the fiberglass smell though.

The worst part of that trip was driving to Seattle, I got a speeding ticket in my rental car. The cops and the courts have no mercy in Aberdeen County. The best part was stopping at Lidz to buy a hat for the cold weather. I bought a Kangol ivy cap and haven't been seen without one since.

This is boiler-plate stuff here, mostly. Anyone who works in production at our facilities has this as a 'job requirement'.

Re: TPMC 8x hard button stiff

 

This happens with all of the 8x batteries after a while. Just like most rechargeable batteries, they technically should be taken off the charger once they are fully charged, and not charged again until they are low. Keeping them on a constant charge causes the swelling issue.

I've been away from home this weekend but should be able to take a look
tomorrow or Tuesday and I'll report back. It sounds like if it is a

extended battery so I guess I need to remove both.

Does anybody have a link where I can read more about this "swollen" battery
issue? Is that common from all batteries or just the cheap generic ones
sold through ebay?

Our sales rep stopped by today and showed us a flash site that may help you with the commercial side of things:

What you're describing is a BIG difference from Crestron to C4. C4 can

allows for so much more flexibility in the configuration and programming of
