Re: VC-4 lack of console for printing msgs
Tim's code from Masters 2022 MSS-431 has a VirtualConsole class suited to this purpose.? You can telnet in and even have it re-print the previous debug messages.? You can find it linked from his presentation in OLH 2015. On Fri, Oct 14, 2022 at 9:36 AM jeff via <jeff.mackie=[email protected]> wrote: Yes sorry... Program Instance. In our case we use a spare room license for debugging, and stop that program when we are done. You could actually do something similar by creating a program/cron that runs on the linux server. |
Re: Access RMC Scaler (via DM-MD) from SSH or Telnet
#programming
You most certainly can use the USRPROGCMD command to send serial data out of the RMC comport with a little bit of SIMPL and/or SIMPL+.? I use USERPROGCMD all the time to check the status of of something or to issue a command.? Done it both with Telnet and SSH via a VPN from my host Linux laptop without opening a Windows VM. ? The easiest way to do it is make a SIMPL module that controls all the functions you want to do on your projector -- in most case, you will already have a module for this.?? Put a Console symbol in your SIMPL program and your USRPROGCMD signals will come out of the Console symbol.? Then run the Console symbol to a SIO and put all the commands you want to do in the parameter list.? For example, one of those commands may be "projector on".? Route each digital signal from the? SIO to a MMV or stepper and then pulse the proj_ON signal on your SIMPL module for the projector.? It is a good ideal to feed the SIO digital output of the SIO back to the digital inputs of the SIO and in the parameter list, give it a descriptive name such as "Sending Power On to projector/n" so you know you have spelled the command correctly.

Re: Access RMC Scaler (via DM-MD) from SSH or Telnet

Thanks for answering, I was pretty sure by now that it wasn't possible.?
I have a few goals. One, was a simple curiosity what/how much can be accomplished from my VPN, without having my Windows VM opened up, and just using my Mac. I was hoping to build a some documentation for my IT team to be able to do some remote triage on our legacy systems, if I am on vacation or otherwise not available. So for example, I was going thourgh the process of what a full system shutdown without a processor online could be.?

Re: Access RMC Scaler (via DM-MD) from SSH or Telnet

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýAFAIK, there isn¡¯t a way to access a serial port on an endpoint in that way ¨C passto /passthru have been historically used to access the console of devices (and in a very modal method ¨C e.g. while a passto session is active basically everything else stops). The IO ports are really architected to be under programmatic control ? What problem are you trying to solve? ? -- Lincoln King-Cliby, CTS, DMC-E-4K/T/D ?

Re: Off Topic: Epson 5050UB Trigger
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýGet a Niles APC-2 from eBay, plug the projector into the "Current Sensing" outlet, and use the 12v output or relay output to drive the projector lift.

Re: Off Topic: Epson 5050UB Trigger
Thanks John.
At this point, no Crestron control, just manual. AV Receiver trigger controls lift (old Panasonic projector melted from being sent up too early from AV Receiver trigger...trying to avoid repeating issue.) Also, there is an IR receiver in room, so threat of someone/house cleaner, etc. accidentally turning projector on with its native remote. I want the lift to be controlled from projector.? If that projector is on, I want lift down, no matter what and how. |
Access RMC Scaler (via DM-MD) from SSH or Telnet
#programming
I'm wondering if I can access an RMC-Scaler-C's RS 232 port from SSH or Telnet.
I'm starting first with textconsole. I'm looking at the PASSTHRU and PASSTO commands, but having trouble with the syntax that gets me to the slot I need, and then the RS-232. The 3-Series programming manual mentions creating an address book entry with the 'indirect' option. But that will give me connections to RS-232 out of a COM port, or let me access a card slot. So, for example, I can access card slot 17, but not 17.1.? Is what I'm trying to do possible? And if so, am I on the right track with either of these commands? What would be the syntax if so? Or, is there a better way? Thanks |
Hdmi Matrix IR Driver
#crestronhome
Hi!
I would like you to help me with creating an IR driver for a
Matrix HDMI in Crestron Home, the procedure for creating it in ToolBox I can do, my question is which type of device is most suitable
to do this function. In the Device Type list I know I should choose
among the options with a yellow asterisk. I already have the IR codes.
You will only need 3 inputs and 1 output.
Which device type would you choose?
Thanks! |

How about one of those Room Availability Signs??Yea you would need cresnet or a CENCN to put it on the network but would look nice

Re: Off Topic: Epson 5050UB Trigger
Jeff,
When the lens cover closes, is the projector completely Off (i.e. the STATUS indicator has stopped flashing and the "cool down" period has ended)? Basically, I'm trying to determine if I can use the trigger to lower and raise enclosed ceiling projector lift, where I DO NOT want the lift to close until the projector has completely shut down, including its cool down period. If I use the trigger, does it seem ok for projector ceiling lift to close as soon as trigger turns off? From manual for turning projector Off: "Press the power button on the projector or the Standby button on the remote control again. (To leave it on, press any other button.) The lamp turns off and the lens shutter closes. The projector's Status light flashes and then turns off." They don't say how long the STATUS light flashes, and I am not onsite to check this. Thanks so much for the reply! |

Yeah just a simple light that says either On Air or recording. ?The idea is the light would go on any time the smp is recording. ?Preferably maybe something that could be run direct from the IO on smp. ?I guess he reached out to Extron ?and they said they don¡¯t have one any more. ? looking for a new solution? |

There's lots that the radio broadcast industry offers, many of the relay controlled, but some have their own IP interface as well. What kind of look are you after - just a red light? The traditional kind of light with the kit up "on-air" text? Scott On Thu, Oct 13, 2022, 4:49 p.m. <chrmac68@...> wrote:
