Re: Duplicating zone question

 

You can ganged (wire parallel) the speakers depending on the ohm rating of the speakers.? ?If you have 8 ohm speakers and if the AAE can handle a 4 ohm load it will work.
Re: Duplicating zone question

 

Sorry but does ganging the pairs mean putting both pairs of speaker wires in the same terminal in the AAE?? So essentially having two wires (from different speakers) in the plus and two wires in the minus?? Thanks!

If I go with the splitter I don't have to change anything with the code which is always a plus however I didn't know if I may introduce a bunch of other issues using a speaker splitter.

Thanks for the help.

Re: Timer module #programming

Am I missing a more recent message in the thread? The last one before this one I see was from last year¡­So I may be missing context but¡­

A time formatted analog take care of all of this for you ¨C you just provide the number of seconds (or minutes if you want it that way instead) and it¡¯s rendered for you ¨C 1d = 1 second so times up to a bit over 18 hours can be shown with 1 second resolution

what about when you want to have HH:MM:SS? you need to zero the seconds once you hit 60 sec, and start incrementing the minutes, etc.

Re: Multiple projects on TSW panel #tsw

 
Edited

In regards to multiple processors :
I¡¯ve used this to in a few places. ?Example there is a building wide lighting system and rather than have eisc¡¯s to interconnect the lighting with the AV, I just had the panels connect to both systems. ?You just need to manage the join numbers between them. ?Both systems will respond to the same join, so I¡¯ve done 1-1000 for av and 1001+ For lighting.? ?

If you use this Make sure you have the page logic at the panel. ?That way if one of the two systems is offline the other one still works. ?
Re: Connect a MC3 to a CP4-R via Pyng Listen moduel

 

You are AWESOME!!! thank you so much!? Worked like a charm.
Re: Connect a MC3 to a CP4-R via Pyng Listen moduel

 

This has been disabled by default on latest Crestron Home firmware, from the release notes:

By default, on upgrading, the port used by pyng Smart Objects, CEN-TRACK, TSW-x52, and Triggers and Listen modules are disabled. If you want to turn that port back on, you can change this setting under ¡°System Detail & Password Configuration¡±.?
Connect a MC3 to a CP4-R via Pyng Listen moduel

 

Ok, got a quick question (I hope).? I have a client where we are converting their system to a Crestron Home system.? To deal with the limitations of the Crestron Home box, we are using an old MC3 to trigger some devices (PROAMP to be specific).? Currently I have the program on the MC3 set up with the "Pyng Connection Configuration" module pointing at the IP address of the CP4-R plus a single "Pyng (Listen for Pyng Events)" module with two signals defined.? The problem is that when I pull up Pair Devices>Device Types>Crestron Wired and Wi-Fi>Ethernet and Wi-Fi, the Listen for Crestron Home Events does not come up.? Even after hitting the rescan button multiple times.? Both processors are on the same IP scheme and both can be pinged from the other one so I know they can talk.? Does anyone have any suggestions?
Re: Multiple projects on TSW panel #tsw

 

In case you are talking to multiple processors... I've never used it that way.

Re: Timer module #programming

 

I'm not sure what you're asking specifically, although it would be rather straightforward to use some comparison logic as an extension to the above to achieve this.

Crestron Home debug window #xpanel

 

Hi folks,
?
I wonder how I did open debug window in Crestron Home configuration Xpanel.
Are there any hidden shortcuts to operate with?
I have opened it last time but cannot with the way how to do it again.

Best regards

Re: Infinite Oscillator

 

I current do exactly what you are describing to check when an EISC is offline.? Been doing that for many, many years and never once have I seen where the oscillator stop working.? I think you will find you will have other things cause you issues other then this.

Infinite Oscillator

 

I have noticed that the Ethernet Offline Manager is Super laggy, meaning it may take up to a minute for it to report that the EISC is actually Offline. What I've done is added an Oscillator in the first processor that sends a "heartbeat" pulse every two seconds and if the connection between the two processors is somehow broken I know about it almost instantly as the pulses stop coming in. My question is, have any of you ever seen an oscillator stop working? I need this to work reliably for many years.

Thank you,
Re: Multiple projects on TSW panel #tsw

 

BruteForceIsUnderRated, I found your previous post with fput command description. It worked for me. Thank you!

Re: HTML5 and Media Player Object

 

If their CH5 components are any indication...I would MUCH rather just have an API/protocol documentation to CRPC than a CH5-MediaPlayer component that would be a nightmare to "skin"
Re: HTML5 and Media Player Object

 

Mmmmm...Typical...
Crestron Should then provide a *Working* model that could be skinned as desired...It's really crappy that they got us all excited about HTML5 and then did essentially nothing...
Thanks Nathan!
