Re: DM-NVX-351 on different subnet

 

I'm sure this is way over simplifying it but... IGMP Proxy effectively forwards all IGMP traffic through the router. ?which means that the port the processor is plugged into would subscribe to all the multicast groups so that it could forward that traffic on incase something on the other side of the router needs it. ?So if it subscribed to all the NVX streams then the port would be flooded and unusable.

I have not run into a need to have IGMP proxy on but I have forgotten to disable it before connecting NVX so it seems like it would be better to be disabled from the factory but maybe theres a use-case I havent considered.


Array Index Question

 

Can someone explain why this always returns 1

PUSH Update_Names
{
Print("%s", NewNames[Getlastmodifiedarrayindex()]);
}

and this returns a proper index value

CHANGE NewNames
{
Print("%s", NewNames[Getlastmodifiedarrayindex()]);
}


Re: Dish Network

 

It does not work¡­and hasn¡¯t worked for months and months since Dish made a change to how the boxes phone in to the mothership. I¡¯ve been in contact with them once every few weeks to see what¡¯s up and there still isn¡¯t an official fix.


Re: Luxul PDU08

 

Hi James L,
For the Middle Atlantic RackLink Select Demo program, You can find the Crestron module in the files section (just posted a week or two ago).
Also you can find it and the latest FW (v1.14.02 is actually the release version) firmware and the Crestron demo at this link, in the Resources&Tools tab:


I have a call into my MAP guy to confirm that the PDU8 is the same as the RLNK-915R, and


Re: DM-NVX-351 on different subnet

 

Thanks for the confirmation.? I'll report back if there is any special VLAN configuration needed other than the standard IGMP Snooping/Querier and Multicast Router stuff.? I just remember way back when I took the NVX class that there was apparently an issue where IR or RS232 on the DM-NVX didn't work if it was on a different subnet.? I guess that problem has been fixed by now.

One thing I have never fully understood is why you need to execute the command "IGMPPROXY OFF" on the Crestron processor or why it was even turned on by default in the first place.? I guess I could just try it both ways and see what happens.

Thanks,

Re: DM-NVX-351 on different subnet

 

We have systems running like this and they have been working well. The IT guys did the VLAN setup, so I don't know configuration specifics. In one case I have 10 TVs with RS232 control over the local NVX units and it has never failed.

Side note, when I was initially setting this up and having some issues, I called Tech support and they said 'Nope, you can't do that', while at the same time our IT guys got it all working. TB then said 'Oh, yes, you can do that.'


Re: Luxul PDU08

 

Hello, we are looking to control the Luxul PDU 8. All we need is sequence on and off control. I tried using MiddleAtlantic RacklinkSelect v1.0 module which compiles without error. Unlike the version on Legrand's website specifically for this hardware. Its missing several files which dont exist. "Toggle with Reference.umc" and "MiddleAtlantic RackLink v1.2.USH"
If this RackLink V1.2 exists somewhere can we just use that???I am not a SIMPL+ programmer.

When MiddleAtlantic RacklinkSelect v1.0 sends the username and password the PDU 8 replies with a hex string \xFE\x04\x00\x02\x10\x00\x14\xFF
Seems it wont work, but the module looks very similar.

We are on firmware v1.10, if you could let me know where to find this v1.13.02 firmware I would appreciate it. If there is a working module for controlling this unit it would be greatly appreciated.

Re: NVX REST API - setting USB routes

 

Updating the NVX system to the new 6.x firmware appears to have resolved this issue on our NVX-360s.

[Edited Message Follows]

That's good to know, and I agree, it doesn't make a lot of sense. I am already using adaptive bit rate, and EDID is set to 1080p/60, so a user's video connection is only in the 360-400Mbps range anyway. I have observed the same behavior you described. I can pull the camera feed up in the Windows camera app and have outbound video going, or I can monitor the microphone audio, but once I try to use all three; crash. I should technically have enough bandwidth available on the port to push a fully-utilized USB 2.0 connection plus the video stream. Mind you, when I query the switch's port utilization, I don't see any evidence of blocking events or anything close to max port utilization in either direction. I will have to try the 300Mbps resolution, which should be fine in this instance, to see if that clears it up for us as well. Thanks for your input!

Re: DIN range - why didn't they...

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

While you'll have to fabricate your own DIN rail mounting the Shelly 1 is about as cheap, and small, as you can get for an IoT controllable relay. ? The Shelly 1 can be turned on/off programatically or using a contact closure.?? The free Shelly modules I've written, even provide full feedback on the relay state.

The Shelly 1 is about the size of 2 oreo cookies stacked on top of each other.? It is designed to fit in a wall box behind a light switch.? You hook the light switch up to the contact closure inputs and the relay up to the lighting load.? The light switch can then continue to switch the load on/off and it can also be fully controlled by a control system.

They are available directly from Shelly or on Amazon.?

Here is a link to the code on my Github -

Hope this helps

Yes I know we have the SW8's and the AO8 (that can be used at a stretch) but both these are way OTT for a simple contact closure.
My main house DIN cabinet could really do with some more dry contact relays, also I'd like some in the garage too.
4 relays on a DIN-AP4 just does not cut it Crestron.

Looks like I'm gonna have to break out another raspberry pi.

Re: DIN range - why didn't they...

 

Each to their own, but as Crestron DIN modules go, the DIN-8SW8-I is one of the lowest cost. You also now effectively get the (I) inputs free now too. As for the size, I appreciate the relay terminal spacing when I¡¯m mixing 240 V a.c. mains with low voltage switching on the same module. True the switching logic is different, but it¡¯s hardly complicated, and you get proper feedback (along with manual buttons on the unit and both manual and remote override).


Re: Crestron integration with forbes & lomax keypads #simpl

 

Those devices look very cool. They have a document on web site about products that integrate with home automation systems. Interestingly, the 0-10v rotary is not listed in the document. Seems like it¡¯s intended to connect directly to an LED 0-10v driver. I¡¯d be interested to get my hands on one to experiment.?


Re: DIN range - why didn't they...

 

Take a look at Moxa controllers. They have a variety of DIN-mount, IP controlled modules with relays. Particularly interesting because they support a handful of different protocols, so there¡¯s likely something you¡¯re comfortable with. Inexpensive too.


Re: DIN range - why didn't they...

 

* Cheaper cost
* Smaller size (than the 8SW8) - should be same size as an IO8/AO8
* Would follow same programming as the relays built into the processors. One digital to turn the relay on/off as opposed to rising discrete inputs for 8SW8
* Makes my DIN enclosures look more sexy


Re: DIN range - why didn't they...

 

What would your hypothetical product offer over the DIN-8SW8?
