Re: Let¡¯s have a candid conversation.

 

"Brian Matson
Regarding the use of VC4 for residential, we don't live in a "per room" world.
So, does that equate to a "per program" model as well?

For example, I typically have a main program that the client interfaces are run on, and several other programs, running on other processors, for lighting, shades, security, access, etc."

Room=Program, but as I understand it, each 'Room/Program' needs a license @ $ 500.00/ea, thus
Main Program
Sonos Management
Security Interface
Lighting Interface
$ 2000.00 in licensing...

You¡¯ll have to do some digging but there is a USB to NIC adapter that can be configured to be used for multiple subnets.? Not sure what the recommended model is.

Not had chance to follow up yet on the VC4. ?Does anyone know how/if a 2nd NIC can be used created of a Subnet, like the CP3N/CP4N for example. ?Can¡¯t see any info in the technical details. The Dell MFF only has 1 NIC onboard. ?Any info appreciated.

re TouchPanels, iPads with the Go APP installed much cheaper than $7000¡­..
?¡­lol¡­..and available in bucket loads.

I¡¯m assuming the 80 series panels will be HTML only and they will be able to push them out to market quicker.


Re: D3 and Shades

 

Aside from the fact that I would program the shades in SMW, Are you looking for the following:
- Center window starts
- then mid two units start when the center gets to them
- then the outside units join with the others to the bottom
If this is what you're saying, I think you'll want to do it in SMW...


Re: Let¡¯s have a candid conversation.

 

Also physical controls.? Buttons, knobs, switches.? Just need an IoT GPIO, or a Pi.? Also, hand held remotes.

Regarding VC4, I see two issues to review:
1. No Console...Seems like a dumb move not to have it, but maybe I'm dumb...:)
2. My understanding is that there's no concept of slots. I believe that this means we'll need a license for each sub-program as well as the Main.? $ 500 for a license to run my separate SONOS program which I have only because Crestron won't fix their Comms/restart for it is unacceptable...

The VC4-PC-3 includes 3 room licenses.

Re: Let¡¯s have a candid conversation.

 

And the CEN-IO boxes (but yes the Global Cache ones are nice too).? Hint for touch panels, CWS.

At least we have Global Cache for IP to RS-232, IR, relays, etc.

Re: Let¡¯s have a candid conversation.

 

I got a touch panel but it's $7000, are you interested ;)


Re: Let¡¯s have a candid conversation.

 

Now all we need is a touch panel.?

Re: Let¡¯s have a candid conversation.

 

It's going to be an interesting Masters...

Atlona has a control platform that is easy and affordable and available.? Extron is nice but have shipping delays as well.? QSC now integrates control, so that is a thing.? But I would like to see a little more humility and admittance from Crestron about just how bad this is, and how bad it looks to customers, how some firms are actually hurting/in danger from this, and how folks are turning other brands, and those turnings will likely be permanent.?


Re: Slowing Down For Loop In SImpl+ #simpl

 

I did this for a countdown timer (like an egg timer), and it has a cancel button, so needed an easy stop. I did it with a function, and a delay.
?
Integer_Function countdown(integer _countdown_seconds)
{
? ? integer i;
? ?
for(i = 0 to (_countdown_seconds * 2)) // Time number format = 1s is integer value 100
{
if(!countdown_cancel_flag)
{
Delay(50); //this equals 1/2 second
current_time = countdownSecondsInteger - (i/2);
}
else
{
? ? ? ? countdown_cancel_flag = 0;
return(0);
}
}
return(1);
}


Re: Crestron Ceiling Signs - Pole Mount?

 

Could also 3D print/get custom made rear housing to support a standard pole thread, or otherwise fit for a pole mount.? Same answer, custom make the rear housing and use the ceiling version.

Has anyone ever worked on the Fusion Web page for the scheduler? I am trying to get info to help our admins and Vendor?
I am needing a "Important Notice" added for users to see when booking a room. This can be a landing page or banner but I am hoping someone here can help with what that would take.
