Re: SIMPL+ module to see the output state
Thanks a lot guys. I always ignored the warnings about jamming the signals but now I am more considerate and have followed the steps to use the RAM and it worked.

Subject: RE: [Crestron] Re: SIMPL+ module to see the output state
Depending on what you're controlling the lights on, there may already be a load toggle option. If not, the "scene" steppers you're referring to should hit the "Set" and "Reset" inputs on the toggle rather than the load directly, obviating the need for both illegally jammed signals and the need for the toggle to track the state of its outputs
There are a couple ways to achieve a nonvolatile toggle without resorting to SIMPL+. My most common method can be achieved with the following symbols.
ARAM
Buffer
NOT
INIT
EQU
LWP
1) The "clock" signal goes into the trig on the logic wave pulse. The output of the LWP is called "clock_t", and the parameter is 1d.
2) clock_d goes to the enable on the buffer.
a) The left side of the buffer has two digital inputs "set_fb" and "reset_fb".
b) The right side of the buffer has two outputs "reset" (opposite set_fb) and "set) (opposite reset_fb).
3) Set and reset go to the INIT. Set has a value of 1d, reset has a value of 0d. The analog output from the INIT is called state.
4) "state" goes to the analog input on the equate. Parameter of 1d and output called "set_fb".
5) "set_fb" goes to the input of the NOT. The output of the NOT is called "reset_fb"
6) All digitals on the ARAM have "1" on them. State is on both sides of AINx.
What happens is that the LWP opens the buffer for exactly one logic wave, which sets the logic to the opposite of its current state. The reason for the NOT rather than just driving both set_fb and reset_fb from the EQU is the first time you load a program to a processor (or if the program is using previously unused memory space) the value may be something other than 0d or 1d -- which would prevent the toggle from working correctly.
If you need to force the state of the toggle, simply add more inputs to the INIT for the corresponding signals and "1d" for set "0d" for reset.
If you have multiple "nonvolatile toggles" you need only one ARAM, just expand the ARAM so that there's one analog for each set of toggle logic. If you put the ARAM at the top of the program and only add signals to the bottom of it, as you make changes to the program and reload the state of the existing toggles will still be remembered.
HTH,
Lincoln

why do I need to jam the signals? this is the scenario:
1. a toggle button turns on/off lights
2. a mood/scene stepper directly turns ON or OFF the light.
3. the toggle needs to be aware of the state of its output otherwise you have to push the clock twice.
4. I need the toggle to keep the state on reboot.
if anyone can guide me how to achieve this I'd be really glad.

Reading between the lines there is a big concern with what you're saying:
With a few exceptions*, Digital signals should not be jammed (see the recent thread on bad programming), this is where the same digital is driven from two or more symbols. Besides generating an error when the program is compiled, you can have some undesired behavior.
Unless signals are improperly jammed, there's no way the output to the toggle can be changed other than by the toggle itself. In other words, the toggle shouldn't need to be aware of the output state changing externally because in a well-programmed system, the only time the output state changes is when the toggle itself changes it.
*- Generally touchpanels; there are other symbols that allow for digital signals to be jammed (see the SIMPL Windows help) but even when jamming is allowed if not done carefully you may see unexpected behavior.

Thanks for your help Stig, but the Toggle logic in SIMPL windows can read its output state if it is changed by other logics. So there should be a way in SIMPL+ to do the same as Crestron guys did.
The interesting fact is that, I uploaded the same program to a 2-series Prodigy controller and it can in fact detect the state of its output and Toggle accordingly.

You will need to define a Integer variable first and and let the output follow it's state.

set=iset;

Re: Using Cell phone as an RFID tag?
You could ping an IP address using the console symbol, BUT it locks up the entire program while it's waiting to time out. Not recommended, especially if there's any likelihood that the device is going to be offline during regular use. I generally only use it to detect some sort of catastrophic failure that results in power-cycling the connected device to bring it back -- not something that's supposed to happen on a regular basis. If your phone has any open ports, you might be able to find it using a TCP connection. Otherwise I think you'd need to run the ping on a PC, or some other device that can do more than one thing at once (maybe a stray QM-RMC?)

I can concur 1000% with Lincoln with regards to the TPCS-4. Same "lags

Likewise, yes - you can access the "multi state" buttons individually
through analogs on said device extender...

Beware, though, I'm not sure why but changing the backlight color

to be a particularly intensive task, especially on the TPCS. Depending
on what else the touchpanel is doing at the moment it can range from
"slight lag" to "OMG, it's not working! <beat> Oh, wait, there it goes!"
Needless to say, I have not found acceptable results with trying to
use
the backlight color as a "Yes, you pressed me!" indication. I have,
however, in a few projects used it to indicate things like audio and
video mute status. But again, be ware of the hardware limitations: I
generally prefer to make mute buttons "blink" (driven by a common
0.5s/0.5s OSC) so they jump out at the user, this does not work well on the TP**-4SM family.
On the TPMC-4SM doing this tends to get the panel farther and
farther
behind so that after a few seconds the panel is so far behind that the
observed blink rate is more like 1.0s/1.0s -- and the worst part is
that it queues them up, so the button will continue to blink well
after it's no longer being told to blink by the program.
So, in other words, don't try changing the color too frequently :)

Re: DM-MD6x1 - video is flickering
It sounds like you've narrowed it down to the output of the 6x1, cable, or RMC.
Part of the reason I'm asking for behavior with a low-res source is lower resolution = lower bandwidth requirements = far more forgiving.
If you connect a low res source and it shows up just fine I'd point very strongly at the D cable, on the other hand if a low res source also looks bad you may have a D cable issue or you may have a bad bit of active hardware (e.g. RMC or 6x1).
I assume if you plug a display directly into the HDMI output of the 6x1 you do not see the same issue.

Re: OT - Things to do in NYC after Masters
When I lived in NYC I loved going to the Jazz bars and catching a live show. Most of time they were no names but it was still enjoyable. Central park is one of my favorite places for so many reasons but you should take your wife on one of the carriage rides that goes through the park. I also second walking the Brooklyn Bridge. The comedy shows are great but depending on your taste they may get a little inappropriate. My favorite Italian restaurant is Carmine's, there's one in Times Square or on 90th and Broadway the food is wonderful. Anytime I go back I always hit a broadway show as well as my favorite little pizza place called Big Nicks on 72nd and Columbus. There's also a ton of great Irish Pubs too. Hope some of those ideas help I was trying to think of the non typical touristy places in addition to some of the great places already mentioned.

I am in the process of putting together our third trip to NYC - our last was Jan/Feb this year and this one is in 7 weeks yesterday. I agree very with Lincoln, and add:
The Metrocards are purchased from select stations, but if you are going from NJ into Grand Central via rail (easiest way from where you will be staying for Masters) you can get them there, and grab a subway map too - it will be your best friend.
Take a Helicopter ride - will cost about $115 per person for 15 minutes, but well worth it. (go to viator.com)
If you like live music, we loved "Village Underground" (103 W 3rd) in Greenwich Village.
For an insane desert - Serendipity 3 (from the movie) (225 E 60th Netween 2nd and 3rd)
Alternative ice skating, much cheaper (and better IMHO) then Central Park - Bryant Park (42nd and 6th) which you can do walking distance from Central Station.
By the way the vault Heather was talking about in Grand Central outside the Oyster Bar (lower Level) is called the "Whisper Wall" and is very freaky - you can hear the person standing about 60ft away as if ther were beside you. Also the Oyster Bar serves the best New England Clam Chowder in NYC - for $6.50.
Hop On/ Hop Off sight seeing bus - but will be bitterly cold!. Deinately an extremely touristy thing to do. Get your tickets from Gray Line (1560 Broadway Time SQ or online graylinenewyork.com)
If you like Police history - the New York City Police Museum (100 Old Slip). Has a great Exhibit on 9/11 which is extremly moving. Walking distance from Staten Island Ferry terminal (Definately get straight back on - do not bother going to the Island)
Finally if you enjoy shopping - Macys Herald Sq (34th and Broadway) or if you have time, Woodbury Common premium outlets (Google them or go to the Gray Line for bus tickets from Port Authority).

(warning: Excessively long post follows)
My first "real" trip to NYC was my 3rd Masters and in the middle of January. I spent a lot of time (the better part of 4 days) walking around outside in ~18degree (F) temps and until I found darted into a dug store to grab a (ugly but useful) knit head thing my ears would go numb after about 45 minutes, but otherwise it wasn't too bad.
I've used my HHonors (Hilton) points cache to stay at a few properties on Manhattan. I'd pass on the Waldorf (not impressed by the location or service -- seemed to be riding on reputation) but the Hilton Times Square is possibly my favorite hotel in the US.
Decent sized, clean and modern rooms with good service and a great location (it's almost literally right on top of the Times Square/42nd Street MTA station and from there you can get anywhere pretty easily).
- I love MoMA and not the biggest fan of the Met but you should go at least once. The Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum is also one of my favorites, though I don't know if they've finished their renovation project. The Guggenheim is also a NY landmark, but the exhibitions can be kind of out there. Definitely consider what's on display before deciding to lay down cash [if you have Museum Staff ID, though, make sure you show it at any of these]
- For Broadway, if you aren't wed to a particular check out the TKTS booth for discount tickets day of show. One of my favorite things to do is just go down there, and pick a show I've never heard of, or heard very little about and get a ticket. The tickets are usually pretty decent. But I've also been burned (Boeing Boeing and Next to Normal - Awesome; Fela - So far beyond awful I managed to get a partial refund.)
- Central park is a must. If you wander in at the lower east corner (what is that 5th Av / 59th St?) you can follow the paths up to the Met, just a little but further and you find the reservoir; if you duck out to 5th Av you're not that far from the Cooper-Hewitt. If the timing is just right, there will be just a little bit of snow on the ground but the pathways will be clear and it's an absolutely beautiful sight.
- Just get an unlimited ride MetroCard and ride the subways around. MTA's Arts4Transit program is awesome as far as planned public art goes and you'll see plenty of other interesting things along the way.
- In a similar vein, just walk the streets. One of my favorite things to do anytime work takes me to a city, and NY is no exception, is to just wander around without a map or plans of any kind. I'll see something interesting and stop in for a bit; eventually I'll start to get hungry and just let my nose guide me to something that smells good. I've found plenty of decent, literal holes-in-the wall that you would never hear about from any tourist this way.
- Radio City Music Hall is an interesting tour, but I'm a little biased because the first and only time I've done it was the day before I attended the Tony Awards. /That/ was fun.
- When in doubt ask a cop. Most police officers (NYPD included) are rather friendly. And they also usually know a good place near by to get a drink / eat / not get shot. The most confused I've ever seen a cop was when I asked a NYPD officer if he would mind taking my picture as I left the Tonys. After the "You...want... me..." stunned reaction, he happily snapped a few.
- Check out Lincoln Center. Again a little biased (or perhaps pseudo-narcissistic)
- I would probably not do the Empire State Building again. Nothing but tourists, and in a city with so much else to offer kind of an overpriced waste of time, IMHO.
NY really is my favorite city, I just wish we had more commercial projects out that way so I had more of an excuse to visit. And now I'm /really/ hoping I can make it to Masters.

Subject: [Crestron] OT - Things to do in NYC after Masters
My class is Dec 5-7 and my wife is going to fly in Friday night so we can spend the weekend in NYC. We have never been there and I was wondering if anyone has any 'must-do's' for our first trip to NYC. Please remember it is in December.
Some of the idea's I got are:
Broadway play
Rockefeller Plaza
Central Park
Museum of Modern Art
Any other idea's?

Use super debugger and press each button. I've had to do this before. On a simple panel it's not to bad. On Mon, Sep 17, 2012 at 8:52 PM, smarszalek84 <s.marszalek11@...>wrote: **
Hey guys,
I just took over a project and the panel project I received is not what is
currently uploaded to the TP. Is there a way to see what join numbers were
assigned to the buttons?

Re: DM-MD6x1 - video is flickering
It sounds like a D cable issue.
How long is the cable run and are you near any sources of electrical noise?
Can you provide more information about the "flickering" though? Is it full-screen or just a portion of the video? What is the source when you are noticing the flickering? Is it common to all sources? If you send a low-res source (like composite video or a laptop with the resolution forced down to 640x480 or 800x600 or the like) does it still do it?

Subject: [Crestron] DM-MD6x1 - video is flickering
Hi all,
I have a DM-MD6x1 and DM-RMC 100. I terminated the cables twice, both D & M and still the video is flickering. The audio is okay. Any thoughts?
Thanks so much in advance for your help.
Dave
