I have been using IP and CEC to control displays for quite some time. I am now working on a system using RS-232. There are 2 Sony Bravia panels that are working correctly, but I am having issues with the Projector. Using both Crestron Certified Drivers and and older module, all I get as return is?\x00x\x00\x00\xf8\xf8. since it is formatted and comes after something is sent, it seems I have the Tx/Rx and the baud rate correct. The on-screen menu only references HDBaseT rs-232. Does anyone know of necessary setup on the? VPL-FHZ75? Thanks in advance.

Hi All,

sorry for the late update.
Unfortunately I had the same issues as described by Sébastien LENOIR: no reliable communication.
I ended up adding a Skaarhoj TCP ATEM Link device. This thing is rock solid, provides unsolicited feedback of changes, runs for approx a year now.

I just received an ATEM Mini PRO, updated it to version 8.6.1 and tested the module again.
This is a really small system with an old MPC M-25, containing a C2N-CAMIDJ, a VISCA over IP driver and the ATEM Mini PRO.
So far this system runs with no issues using the modules from the files section.
I think the issues are related to timing, since the ATEM seems to be very picky on timing.

Best regards

Give us your Software versions list....

Hi Folks,

I think I had this before, but cannot remember the root cause/solution.
In Toolbox Debugger, the trace shows the state changes, but not the signal names anymore.
I did not change anything (at least nothing I am aware of).

Any ideas?

Thanks

Thanks.

I thought the console symbol could only be used for the processor and not a connection to the UC Engine?

I can see port "41797: Tunnel is ssl: unknown service" is available on the UC Engine, i will try that. Previously i only tried connecting to port 443

Contrary to the suggestions above, I would recommend using the Gather() or GatherAsync() functions for this with CRLF as the delimiter.

Yes.
I use it quite frequently, it's part of the Foundation I put into all my programs.
I use it on the settings page for a "PROGLOAD -P:ALL, Named "Install Update".? This is so I can load code to the Processor, and wait to have the Field Tech Install the program when they are there, or when the customer is ready to.
I also use it the "PROGRES -P:01" "As a Program Restart" as apposed to a reboot, on the same settings screen.

I used a TCP/IP_Client (Port 41795d, Tied to the Address of the Processor)
? ? ?Simply take the TX$/RX$ to an SIO.
? ? ?The commands are the same as in Text Console + \n (i.e. PROGLOAD -P:ALL\n) ; I just put the \n in the [delimiter].

My Sr. Programmer chooses to use the Symbol "User Program Command" Tied to an SIO (same Parameter formatting), with the TX$ Tied to a "Console" symbol.
? ? ?The "Console" symbol being what your looking for.

I Believe that shades can have multiple addresses, so you can send a "1","2","3" for individual shade control; "5" for Room Control; and "20" house control.
It sounds like your shade has both addresses 6, and 8. in it, so it's responding to both codes sent.

Hi,

I encountered the same problem this week with a customer with 2 units and the only solution was a restore as well. ?I have had this problem following several power and network outages.

I agree.
The Batteries, are very important.?
DO NOT "Hot Swap" the RF Module, they are fragile.

Has anyone been able to do this?

Apparently, you need to write a TLS console connection to the UC which then allows you to send "reboot" via the console (like via Toolbox)
This connection needs "admin" "sfb" prefilled.

Hello tribe,

Is there any easy way of getting a simpl controlled third party device into XIO?
There is no certified driver for this very make/model but a rather trivial TCP-protocol on port xxx. (think of RS-232 over IP)

Obivously the real deal would be to write a real XIO-enabled driver with the driver SDK, but doing this for just a few monitors in a single project is beyond the budget...

During masters 2021 the topic has been briefly mentioned as "coming soon" but anybody know any time frame?

?

Any ideas? Thanks for your help

You need to search (in a loop) for a string starting with a Space and ending in .mov Then locate the \x0D\x0A delimiter in that new string and remove just the chars after the delimiter which is the movie filename.

You then must handle the very first entry as it different with just the filename at the start.

Thanks for the hints. I tried the raw hex into a discrete serial send so I didn’t have to change much. Took a few different ones but finally got it.?

I appreciate the assistance.?

Hi Maraldi,

I had a different issue with that module. I used it last week it was running with the ATEM 1M/E Production Studio 4K.
I was able to control the device but it was not that reliable, probably to much communication.
SInce, I had a PC for the Audio Conference system, I installed a node-red service with an ATEM module. Now it is running like a charm, even if I had prefered to have it inside the Crestron.

Regards,?

Has anyone had luck controlling the Samsung QB75R display with a 232 module? I have tried the 460utn-ud one on the application market with no luck. That same module did work for the UM55H-E displays I am using for a video wall though just fine.? Both of these models are using MDC, and I have set Device ID's on displays to match the modules in the program.
