CHV-TSTAT force "extended" run times?

 

So my house has started running "cool" cycles for the year and I'm noticing that the cycle times seem much shorter and more frequently than prior years and actually if I look at the temps the temp is 1-2 degrees above the setpoint within a few seconds of the cool cycle ending. (I can't say I've ever noticed that before - but cycle times haven't bothered me before either)

The TSTAT is admittedly not in a great place -- it's where the HVAC contractor/prior owner put the old school Honeywell stat - but since all of the other walls on this floor are either exterior, a common wall with my next door neighbor, or have a fireplace/plasma on them I can't really do much better. (Also: Whomever designed the HVAC system was, IMO, smoking crack - there's only one return in the house and it's on the first floor of a 3-story townhome)

Is there any way to force the TSTAT to make the cool call longer / reduce the number of cycles? I'd much rather a longer cool cycle and have it overshoot the setpoint by a degree or five than have it firing every 10 minutes or so.

Or am I barking up the wrong tree in the first place?

Re: TV One 1T-SX-644 HDMI Switcher

 

FYI. One thing that got me on my last tvone job is that the IP had been set to "on" and that killed the com port. I think if it set to "auto" or "off" the com port works without issue.

This ^^^ is the super Chip tip of the day!!! I was working with a 1T-C2-750 and couldn't get the strings right. Just push the button you want to push, take the string it spits out, change the beginning F44 to a F04 and put a ?? in the checksum and you are good!


Re: S+ Parsing

Can anyone recommend a thread or example s plus module that shows API XML polling and parsing. Few web servers I want to make modules for that use http requests and return XML.

Subject: [Crestron] Re: S+ Parsing



No documentation outside of what's here on the forum, but there's also not a lot to it.

WHILE(1)

Says, take the code enclosed in the following curly braces and run it OVER AND OVER AGAIN - FOREVERRRRRRRR!

In most circumstances that classifies as A Very Bad Thing (tm). But if you include code inside the curly braces that returns time to the OS and the host SIMPL program, you're good. As luck would have, it:

GATHER(delimiter,src_string)

Says STOP right there, and keep monitoring "src_string". Do not pass GO, do not collect $200 UNTIL you see the specified "delimiter" appear in src_string. When you do, remove everything from the front of src_sting up to the first occurrence of delimiter, and put it in the variable I specify. Then go back to monitoring "src_string".

The great thing about GATHER is that as soon as it evaluates src_string and doesn't find delimiter, it returns control to the processor. The OS lets GATHER know when (if ever) delimiter arrives, and tells it go resume business.

The big trick is in your parsing code. You need to make sure you evaluate what GATHER returns to you as quickly as possible and let the code return to the GATHER. This is an exercise left to the reader, as how to parse everything depends entirely on the data you're expecting.

In theory, the only way I know of for your BUFFER_INPUT to overrun is if lots of data comes in that never contains the delimiter, or if your processor is SO bogged down otherwise that the OS can't get your S+ code fired back up to run the parsing code.

(Oddly enough, I have random instances of this happening at a job site right now. REALLY frustrating)

That said, I'm not sure I'd use this approach for JSON data, considering how sucky it's structured. Maybe there's a good way of doing it - I just haven't considered it...

From my searching on this group I have found many tidbits of information
that make this seem to be an attractive solution to chatty devices. However every time I have used it (only on a project that sends back LARGE amounts of json data i.e. tv program guide for a week) i just seem to get buffer overruns.

Does anyone have a link to somewhere this has been explained in detail before?

Re: AV2 rebooting continously after program upload

 

I also have an ancient Pro2 (IIRC, when I got it was running CUZ 1.00x) with 32MB of RAM running the latest release (it might actually be newer than latest -- I need to double check) and no issues.

75% of the Pro2s in our Cleveland office are 32MB versions -- again all running the latest released FW -- and they take all the beatings we throw at them.

Yes, if the program is huge you may have issues but it's not a safe blanket statement, and if everything's been happy and no major changes have been introduced it's almost certainly not the issue.

Same here, Chip.

I have a rather old PRO2 with the smaller memory and 4.7 firmware runs just fine.

???

I've got one of the first ever Pro2s on my bench running 4.7.4 without any problems. Are you sure about that??

Re: Activity Detection

 

I expect this may be due to page joins transmitting back from the touch panel to the processor.

Hope this helps

Subject: [Crestron] Activity Detection





So I have a small piece of code running in my MC3 that basically says if my TPS-4L Activity Detection goes Low Set the hard button Backlight to Low and Jump to Page X. From my understanding Activity Detection is based on anything from the touch panel to the processor, not the other way around. But in my case here, when the processor triggers the page flip, it also registers that as activity, thus trigger the backlights to go high and the timer to restart.

Am I incorrect in my assumption or am I just plain doing something wrong.

Did you get it to work?

I'm having the same issue

Yes. Totally dependant on program size. Might work with the program and as
you build on it and it gets larger will do the reboot thing. Same with AV2.

Re: TV One 1T-SX-644 HDMI Switcher

 

More devices need to support setting the checksum to "??". The TVOne
protocol is a disaster, but that is one redeeming feature -- B&K receivers
also implement an optional checksum I believe.

1T-C2-750 and couldn't get the strings right. Just push the button you
want to push, take the string it spits out, change the beginning F44 to a
F04 and put a ?? in the checksum and you are good!

Re: Wireless RS-232

 

I have five of the WF2SLs installed for signage control, they work great.
Just keep in mind they need 802.11b, which is being phased out.

OT: Anyone have any experience using wireless RS-232 equipment.
I have some old Lutron Homeworks equipment that needs modification
routinely, but unfortunately, is not in the room where the lights are.
I would love to be able to modify light levels without having to run
back and forth from equipment room to living area.

Re: EX gateways offline

 

All those double'd up EX gateways, sure would be nice if they supported multiple IPID's eh?

--- In Crestron@..., Heath Volmer <hvolmer@...> wrote:

Have a CP3 with five EX gateways on it. Last night, all five of them went off line - in the sense that IPT shows offline but I can still console in. The CEN-TRACK also went with them. DM, SWAMPs and IDOC are fine. This has happened before. I reboot the gateways and they're fine.

Someone at Crestron told me that it might be related to autonegotiation settings interacting with the HP switch, but there are also the PAC2's EX gateways on the same switch and they aren't offline. In fact, I'm pretty confident that the PAC2's gateways have been entirely solid all along.

One of the five EX gateways is on a separate switch in a separate building where there is yet another EX gateway connected to a PAC2M. It has stayed alive. This tends to point me back to the processor misbehaving.

Thoughts?

Re: EX gateways offline

 

I had the same issue. Was given same answer by TB. Hard coded 100/full on
the switch for the MC3 and voila problem went away.

Re: Clearing 3-series processor

 

Initialize clears all but wipes out anything else you might have on the processor like mobile projects etc.

Hi all,

Anybody know of a way to clearing all the 10 program and IP table of a 3-series processor instead of doing it one by one in toolbox?

Thank you all.
