Hi All,
I would really appreciate some help, as I can't see what I'm doing wrong.
I've got an RS232 command "\x1D\xCE\x03" that I want to output as 03CE.
Here's what I have so far:
if (Find("\x1D", FromDevice$)) { Stored$ = FromDevice$; Trash$ = remove("\x1D", Stored$); // Stored$ = \xCE\x03 string1 = mid(Stored$,3,3);
output$ = string1; } I've done this to test, to see if I could get the middle of Stored$. So I would expect output$ to be "E\", but its coming out empty. What am I doing wrong?

I had a problem between an MC3 and a PAC2. Some thing: offline/unknown.
Besides getting all of the FW up to date, I think what may have fixed it for us was wiping out the IP table in the MC3 program and reloading them. We may have done it on the PAC2 but I don't think so. It was like the IP table may have had not-completely-deleted "ghosts" pointing at other addresses that were confusing it. Haven't had it happen in a long time.

That's a bit strong of a statement. Roomview isn't exactly a task that requires programming skill. It's something you have to figure out, but it's no different that being presented with a strange protocol from some new device. Figure it out and make it work.

Re: Certification Test - Messaging from Touchpanel
Yeah, but I don't think RV Express (RV6) supports the messaging, etc. of RV7 / RV SE... I could be wrong since it's been more than a few years since I've seen anyone do RV SE so maybe that capability has been added [or has been there all along and, as I said, I just have never had a need for it]

Re: Certification Test - Messaging from Touchpanel
Their is a demo on the crestron site of how to do room view. And of note, the whole text message back and forth thing is not done commonly from what I have seen. Maybe it is, so even those of us that do room view all the time, this might not be so cut and dry.

I have a subpage with only 2 buttons on it. Neither of them work. I have quadruple checked the programming and its all correct. None of my buttons on any of the subpages are working. All buttons on regular pages are working just fine. Am I missing something here?
All help is greatly appreciated.

Sorry, to elaborate I remember someone posting about something similar. I want to say Neil/Jeremy maybe. Anyway whoever had issues out of a certain firmware 3-series and EISC with a 2-series. Thankfully I have not experienced the problem.

Re: Certification Test - Messaging from Touchpanel
My answer is I set up a room view system at my house and learned how it worked.
Crestron has example programs to help you learn if you don't know how to do something. It really is not that bad.

Re: Certification Test - Messaging from Touchpanel
I agree with Neil completely.
My own opinion is that asking for help on a certification test only lessens the validity of the test. I do nearly 100% resi. I've never deployed RoomView (in any version) in my life. BUT, I know what it does and what it's useful for. I follow information about the DMPS line of gear even though I'll probably NEVER see a single part in my line of work. At the end of the day, that type of research, knowledge, and understanding makes me a more valuable programmer.
Perhaps Patrick's response was not worded well but he isn't wrong. If you aren't well versed in what Crestron has to offer (in all product lines), why should you be certified? There's a reason the test has both residential and commercial aspects to it. I myself struggled with the commercial side (largely because I was over thinking it) and I know plenty of commercial guys that had the same problem with the resi side of the test.
At the end of the day, it's your test. The irony is, if you hadn't said you were looking for help on your test, you probably would have gotten some helpful info without the grief.

Patrick,
Take what I am about to say in the most helpful manner possible - you're an ass and what you wrote was in fact very rude.
I had a long response written explaining that I'm a resi guy and that I'm learning Roomview strictly for the certification exam, blah blah blah, but
I decided it wasn't worth my time to reply to your pretentious response to
my simple question. It's disappointing to know that guys like you decide to
put down fellow programmers rather than simply not reply or take the 2 minutes to point someone in the right direction.

Are you saying that people that have only done residential systems shouldn't be certified?

Doug - please take what I say in the most helpful manner. Definitely not
trying to be rude, but trying to make sure that "being certified"
still
carries weight and has some meaning.
There was one thing you said that really stood out.
"I've never done a roomview system before"
Roomview is a staple of commercial programming. IMO, "never done roomview"
= shouldn't be able to be certified whether a test is passed or not.
Go out and do a roomview system. Figure out how it works. If you had done
a roomview system the answer to this question would be trivial. Then come
back next year and try for the certification.
Thanks,
Patrick

Hi everyone,
I'm working on the new certification test and basically one of the programs you have to be able to message back and forth from a V12 touchpanel to the helpdesk. I'm just wondering if anyone has any
experience
integrating this in a touchpanel. I'm not quite sure where to start. I've
never done a roomview system before. Is that functionality built into the
roomview software/module.
If someone could point me in the right direction to get started, it would be a big help. I need to learn this stuff so I'm not looking
for
a
completed program, just some general help/tips to get started.
Thanks!
