Re: Opening SMW Projects
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýSIMPL+ is particularly bad where it¡¯s like ¡°OK, which instance did this pop up in¡± ¨C maybe my ADHD tendencies and having 5-10 copies of SIMPL open any given time are partially to blame but why a SIMPL+ compile needs to pop a dialog in _any_ of the SIMPL Windows instances is beyond me and very frustrating. Particularly when another dialog is over the dialog so you can¡¯t give it focus and you have to start killing things in Task Manager to get back to something you can use. ? -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ?

Re: Cisco 9300 Switch Setup
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýA ¡°real¡± Cisco switch will generally act as a pretty dumb device out of the box ¨C packets should flow, but they really aren¡¯t intended to be just powered up and forgotten ¨C with great (switching) power comes great (switching) responsibility. ? In IOS, commands can be abbreviated to the shortest non-ambiguous form, e.g. the command ¡°SHOW¡± can be abbreviated to ¡°SH¡±, etc. You can¡¯t do any damage with a SHOW so there¡¯s no harm in poking around a bit. You can also use the ? to suggest possibilities (e.g. SH ?? or SH INT ?) ? SH INTerface STATUS is basically ¡°Tell me about all of your interfaces (ports, VLANs, LAG groups, etc)¡± and is a very helpful starting point for most troubleshooting¡ For example the first few lines from my ¡®core¡¯ switch ? CLH-FL1-SW01# sh int status ? Port????? Name?????????????? Status?????? Vlan?????? Duplex? Speed Type Gi1/0/1?? Redundant WAN IF?? disabled???? 102????????? full?? auto 10/100/1000BaseTX Gi1/0/2????????????????????? notconnect?? 1??????????? auto?? auto 10/100/1000BaseTX Gi1/0/3?? (2)1-3-3A Guest Be notconnect?? 1??????????? auto?? auto 10/100/1000BaseTX Gi1/0/4?? (2)1-3-3B Front Do connected??? 3????????? a-full? a-100 10/100/1000BaseTX ? So port 1/0/1 is disabled (I explicitly turned it off) and is on VLAN 102 but is configured for full duplex and auto negotiate speed, while the port is capable of 10/100/1000 on copper. ?Port 1/0/2 on the other hand is enabled but there¡¯s no link (since I haven¡¯t assigned a description to the port I think it¡¯s safe to assume nothing is there) but if it were there would be be on VLAN 1, auto speed and duplex. Finally, Port 1/0/4 is connected (enabled+link) on VLAN3 and the speed and duplex have been autonegotiated (a-) as full and 100mb respectively. ? SH RUNning-config can also be handy to show you the configuration that the switch is running (essentially, everything that has been changed from the firmware defaults. You can also use SH RUN INT <interface ID> to just see the info applicable to that interface. The other nice thing about this is that these are presented exactly as you would enter them in CONFigure mode if you wanted to make changes ¨C if there¡¯s a port already configured the way you want it, you can literally copy and paste. For example, if we wanted a bit more visibility about what¡¯s going on for interface GI1/0/4 ? CLH-FL1-SW01#sh run int gi1/0/4 Building configuration... ? Current configuration : 239 bytes ! interface GigabitEthernet1/0/4 description (2)1-3-3B Front Door Touchpanel switchport access vlan 3 switchport mode access switchport block multicast spanning-tree portfast edge no ip igmp snooping tcn flood ip igmp filter 1 end ? CLH-FL1-SW01# ? (Incidentally, the no ip igmp snooping tcn flood is pretty critical for NVX and other high-bandwidth multicast devices, but that¡¯s a rabbit hole we don¡¯t need to go down at the moment) ? And last item for this crash course in Cisco CLI, show logging shows you the most recent log entries, for example just a snapshot of the top few¡ ? ? CLH-FL1-SW01#sh logging Syslog logging: enabled (0 messages dropped, 0 messages rate-limited, 0 flushes, 0 overruns, xml disabled, filtering disabled) ? No Active Message Discriminator. ? ? ? No Inactive Message Discriminator. ? ? ??? Console logging: level debugging, 2215 messages logged, xml disabled, ???????????????????? filtering disabled ??? Monitor logging: level debugging, 0 messages logged, xml disabled, ???????????????????? filtering disabled ??? Buffer logging:? level debugging, 2215 messages logged, xml disabled, ??????????? ????????filtering disabled ??? Exception Logging: size (4096 bytes) ??? Count and timestamp logging messages: disabled ??? File logging: disabled ??? Persistent logging: disabled ? No active filter modules. ? ???

So port GI1/0/40 went down at 16:59:29 yesterday, and then came back up at 16:59:38. Since I apply port descriptions to my switches we can also use SH INT GI1/0/40 DESC to figure out what that is, or we can look at the MAC address table for the port to start hunding: ? CLH-FL1-SW01#sh int gi1/0/40 desc Interface????????????????????? Status ????????Protocol Description Gi1/0/40?????????????????????? up???????????? up?????? (2)1-6-2 3rd Floor Office (Personal PC) CLH-FL1-SW01# sh mac address-table int gi1/0/40 ????????? Mac Address Table ------------------------------------------- ? Vlan??? Mac Address???? ??Type??????? Ports ----??? -----------?????? --------??? ----- ?? 1??? 90b1.1c69.d39e??? DYNAMIC???? Gi1/0/40 Total Mac Addresses for this criterion: 1 ? Nothing to? exciting there probably just applying an update or something. -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ? From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]

However, I find it easier to simply hold down the Shift key, and click the app icon in the Task bar.? I do this for toolbox, as well as file explorer, and every other app. The only time I open a file manually from within Simpl using File:Open is if I already have extra instances open, and I want to open a different project.? It opens way faster if Simpl is already running, than if I close the instance I have and then restart up a new instance with the new file I want to start using. |

Re: Extron DXP HD 4K PLUS
Hello, ? Thanks for your interest. As you comment on other devices, they had a way to dump the state in whinch their inputs and outputs were depending on the state of the verbose, but in this device i have not found it, so i Will use the idea that it has given me to know how finds the device by connecting to it. Thank you very much for your lines. |

Re: Extron DXP HD 4K PLUS
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýWhat status are you interested in? ? I don¡¯t have one in front of me but Extron products tend to be pretty consistent ¨C you should be able to query for any status you care about. For example (see page 63/PDF page 69 of the manual ) if you send x% where X is the output number you¡¯re interested in that will report the video input tied to the corresponding output (x$ will report the audio input for the output, x! will report both ¨C though if you¡¯re breaking away audio and video this may yield less than desirable results) ¨C IIRC, in the past some switchers would dump their entire status if you just sent % $ or ! without a number, but since that¡¯s not documented here ?you may need to do 1$2$3$4$5$6$... if you want to collect all outputs. ? Note that for most things to be useful you¡¯ll want the switcher in Verbose Mode 2 or 3. ? -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ? From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]

Extron DXP HD 4K PLUS
Hello everyone,
I?m trying to control an Extron DXP HD 4K PLUS and i can?t find a way to get it to report the status of the matrix when i connect to it. When i make a change it does report the status of that specific entry. I don?t know anyone who has worked with her. Thanks in advance. ? |

Re: OT - Proximity Sensor
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýWhat about car alarm radar sensors? They use RF field Disturbance Technology, microwaves, to detect a field disturbance within a contained area. I have installed several myself in cars and they work very well. The nice thing is that the size of the sensing field can be adjusted. They operate on 12 volts and can be used as a single zone sensor outside of an automotive application. This link talks about them a bit more. ? ? -????????? David |

ZUM / AM-200 Question
We are trying to install an AM-200, ZUM-AVBridge, ZUM-AVKP, and ZUM-PIR-OCC-BATT with a Samsung TV (QN65Q60AAFXZA) in a few workrooms in an apartment complex (3 identical room setups). The intent is to be able to turn the TV off/on and control TV volume from the ZUM-AVKP, and if the TV is left on, have it turned off when the ZUM-PIR-OCC-BATT detects vacancy.
We've been able to get the space setup and turn the tv off/on using CEC control, but that doesn't account for the volume control. We haven't been able to control the TV using IP or IR drivers, and the model Samsung we have doesn't have EX-Link built in. Does anyone know if what we're trying is possible? We have little experience with AM-200s and no experience with ZUM products so any help or suggestions would be appreciated. To make things more exciting, our techs are a few states away with flights home Friday morning. Regards, Jonathan |

I think tying the operation of the bathroom fan to lights is going to work well in some bathrooms but not in others.? For example, if a bathroom has a small, separate room for the toilet, that doesn't have any windows, then it is a very reasonable solution.? However, if there is a window there may be enough sunlight that an electric light is only turned on at night.? Or, if the toilet is in the room with the sinks then the fan would be running the entire time people are shaving, brushing their teeth, etc.? This would be very energy inefficient. I fully understand the issues with a sensor in the bathroom; which is why I don't think a camera with motion detection is a workable solution. But I think there has to be a reasonable compromise somewhere that provides the necessary functionality without scaring people that someone could be watching.

Re: Cisco 9300 Switch Setup
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýIf you SHow INTerface STATUS on the 9300 what is the interface status for the port the CS is connected to? Which processor? How many VLANs are in place and are you sure the CS is on the right VLAN? ? If it is ¡°ERR-DISABLED¡± SHow LOGGING may give you an indication why the port is disabled but generally the device on the other end did something ¡®wrong¡¯. I¡¯m not sure if the default config for a 9300 has BPDU guard enabled (or if you turned it on) but if it does, since the AV4/PRO4 have a built-in switch I can see that causing issues. (and entering CONFigure mode and SHUTdown / NO SHUTdown the port will reset it) ? If it is ¡°NOTCONNECT¡± it¡¯s not the switch turning the port off, the processor is refusing to link for some reason (hardware or software) ¨C check the processor¡¯s log. ? If it is ¡°CONNECTED¡± but you don¡¯t have link lights on the processor end, the processor has turned off its Ethernet port, usually because it saw a DHCP OFFER packet from some other source at some point (for some reason at least on the 3-series the implementation of this function left the actual Ethernet link up but just turned the lights on the port on the processor end off which makes troubleshooting REALLY annoying¡ I haven¡¯t tried breaking a 4-sereis processor yet to see if the behavior has been fixed to actually drop link) ? ? -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ?

I'm always hesitant to put any type of sensors in a bathroom (or bedroom) due to privacy concerns. Although I know it's a motion sensor, and the client knows it's a motion sensor, guests might think it's something else - and that's not a good look for the homeowner. --- On Wednesday, March 2, 2022 at 2:39 PM, Jay Basen wrote: |

Thanks Jason. Looks like I could easily integrate an IR proximity sensor with an arduino board that included WiFi. I could also tie in a humidity sensor for an all in one solution.?
