Lutron RadioRa2 via RS232 looping data back

 

we have 2 repeaters connected via IP to each other

the PRO3 is RS232 to 1 of the repeaters (tried both)

it just loops whatever we send via rs232 right back

no short in wires, only loops when connected to the Lutron piece

any ideas?

Re: Samsung UN series RS232

 

I have this exact same issue. Does anyone have a resolution??

When i pull power and re apply power to the display, for a small period of time i get a graphical overlay over whatever source is up and see the volume being adjusted. Than it eventually just goes to a black screen, but i can see the volume being adjusted, before it cuts back to the image.

Ideas?

i was able to do this using the ra2 profile. no feedback though


Re: Control of a Crestron Lighting with a Lutron API

 

the only thing missing, for reliability sake...is maybe push all the commands out to a cloud based server first and then route it all back via a free DDNS service, making sure to use host names instead of static IP.??

You do realize there is a reason Apple Campus went with Crestron and NOT Savant right??!!!

Make sure the SWAMP is fully initialized before the strings are sent. I usually put the "device_ready" pulse into a delay that drives the msend for the strings.

Re: Control of a Crestron Lighting with a Lutron API

 

I read it as he wants to tell Savant that it is controlling a Lutron system because they don¡¯t have a profile for Crestron lighting, then use a module in Crestron to decode the ¡°Lutron-ese¡± and run the lights.

>Don't make it more difficult than it needs to be.

He wants a?Lutron system, that is being controlled from Savant,?to control Crestron lighting. ?Importing the Lutron XML won't help with that until he puts the necessary hooks in place on the Crestron side of things.

Re: Heatmiser via RS-485

 

Hi Fred,


I just tried to DM you, but it bounced, so here's the message:

?

Call anytime!! I would put a bet on this being a cabling issue somewhere - maybe a leg tied to ground or mixed up polarity along the way somewhere.

?

Unfortunately, I was going to suggest what you said you can't do - wire a stat directly (i.e. No UH-1, no other stats, no star wiring or daisy chains) and check that works.? If it does, then it's a process of elimination.

?

We had a report of a faulty stat showing similar behaviour btw...? I? was told they were an older rev of Heatmiser's firmware - though I found that hard to believe as it hasn't changed in *years*.

?

Speak soon,

Ol


P.S. I know this might seem a bit extreme, but we have a little USB digital oscilloscope/logic analyser (cost around ?200) which can save a lot of head scratching in these sorts of situations - you can categorically say whether the +VE/-VE lines are behaving on the Tx phase that way (or you might see one line doesn't mirror the other, which suggests an issue) and if that looks correct (i.e. the two traces are almost perfect mirrors of each other) then the most likely explanation the stat itself failing to respond (which could be bad hardware, or this "old" firmware!?)


Re: SWAMP Zone Name

 

Okay, thanks.? I'll look again, but it appears that none of these serial strings is populated yet some of the rooms have names - others do not.? I'm sure it's pilot error.

Thanks again.

Heatmiser via RS-485

 

Hi folks,

I'm attempting to control some Heatmiser Slimline-N thermostats via Crestron but I'm not receiving any Rx comms whatsoever...not even garbage...pure silence.

There are five Heatmiser UH-1 manifolds to which roughly five or six thermostats are connected. The Heatmiser TouchPad is not in use with this system, control is to be solely from Crestron.

I've tried the following:
  • Checked RS-485 port settings and pin-outs are correct on Crestron CP3. (pin 2 and 4. pin 1 is not in use)
  • Removed any references to this particular port from other programs running in parallel on the CP3.
  • Tried swapping polarity (swapping pin 2 with pin 4).
  • Tried the Y&B connectors on the UH-1's touch pad port, as well as C&D.
  • Tried the Y&B connectors on the UH-1's network port (that daisy chains to other UH-1s).
  • Used another Crestron processor to rule out any port issues.
  • Checked thermostat addresses.
  • Connected to another UH-1 on the Heatmiser bus.
  • Disconnected all other UH-1s and attempted to control only the thermostats connected locally.
  • Connected Crestron directly to a thermostat's Y&B terminations on the UH-1 and attempted to poll that particular thermostat for data. I cannot connect Crestron directly to any thermostat as the Y&B ports have been covered in glue...I imagine to keep wires in place...no sign of any phoenix connectors.

I'm using version 3 of Ultamation's Heatmiser (RS485) module. So Oliver, if you're reading this expect a call from me soon...I must be missing something.


Any assistance greatly appreciated. I've exhausted all possibilities.


Best,

Fred.

Re: Control of a Crestron Lighting with a Lutron API

 

Why in the world would you downgrade to Savant? ?The only possible advantage I see is the Pro UI is less work, but that is like "upgrading ¡° from a Rolls to a Chevy with a nice paint job because you don¡¯t want to buff out the Rolls. ?Wait till there is any sort of issue with the upgrayedd-ed system and you try to get any support for something that has a "profile mismatch¡±.

Subject: [Crestron] Control of a Crestron Lighting with a Lutron API

?

Hey, Did any of you lovely people write a module to be able to control a Crestron Lighting system using a Lutron API ? I am considering upgrading a house we did with full crestron to... a Savant system. But there's no way I'm replacing the lighting modules, keypads and program.


This doesn't sound like something utterly impossible, probably quite doable in fact.?


Re: Control of a Crestron Lighting with a Lutron API

 

So you want to "upgrade" to Savant and then control the Crestron lighting with a Lutron API that's being controlled by the Savant??

First thing is explaining how Savant is an upgrade, good luck with that.?


Re: Hunter Douglas Powerview

 

Only scene selection. ?You use the power view app to set the shade(s) state and then save the scene. ?In Crestron you recall that scene. ?Everything is case sensitive. ?I saved an open scene, a closed scene, and a closed but louver open scene.

From our experience, the hardware isn't very reliable, it uses wi-fi to talk to the shades and we had numerous rooms that even though 3 of the shades could talk to the controller, 1 couldn't and wouldn't until we put in one of their repeaters. ?So almost every room has a repeater in it. ?We've also had to reset the shades a few times and re-acquire them.

I suppose if you had time on your hands, you could watch the commands being sent from the power view app and emulate it. ?I suspect they are sending a position to the controller that it goes to as there isn't a stop on the app either, just a slide to where you want the shade open to.


INtel NUC Sling box

 

Hello Everyone,

??????? Does anyone have an IR driver for an Intel NUC NUC515RYK Sling box?? Any help would be great.?
