It's probably file permissions. The only user that you can upload files to is "admin", but the vc4 softwqare runs as user "virtualcontrol" So any files you put into /opt/crestron/virtualcontrol/Runningprograms/<YourRoomIDHere>/Nvram need to change ownership via "sudo chown virtualcontroluser:virtualcontroluser <file name>:

I have had to do that so often I made up a little shell script to do that all for me. See below.


Shell script. copies files from a folder under admin to both Nnram folder and to the Nvram/ProgID folder.

Interesting, I'm used to type "symbolName:customName" and hit enter. This still works afaik, but I'm gonna try the other way.

It's a bug. They know about it. I reported it to TB and they were like "we're aware of this as of several weeks ago," so I imagine lots of people have said something about it. I'm probably going to be in the habit of pressing escape after enter for the rest of my life now as a result.

We have a large?Crestron?installation communicating with 4 Tridium Niagara Jace's through BACnet.

3 of the Jace's work obsoletely fine. The main Jace however is extremally busy and we are seeing BACnet comm failures on this device.
I've listed the typical errors we are seeing at the end of the post:

We integrate to a lot of Niagara systems so are used to seeing and fixing these errors. This typically involves tweaking?BACNETDelayWPRP or tweaking the Jace programming. We've tweaked as much as we can in the Jace.

Unfortunately the system was designed by a guy who has since been asked to leave our company and frankly it was not thought through properly. No consideration was given to program load balancing. A third party was brought in to complete the Tridium programming leaving me to try and sort out this mess.

To give some context - when Crestron writes out to BACnet it expects a response in a timely manner. If that response fails to occur we will see the errors listed below. BACNETDelayWPRP increases the time Crestron expects a response.

BMS integration is through an RMC3 acting as the BACnet bridge. This is running current FW and BACNETDelayWPRP?no longer works.
Crestron removed it in later FW (why wouldn't they).

As a result we can no longer fine tune the BACnet.

Does anyone have any alternate means of tweaking the BACnet on 3-series?
Thanks

There is a company in the UK, who we have used for many years, and also were used by Crestron. They specalise in engraving Crestron buttons.

Hi Yevhen,

I have a combo CNC, laser engraver, and 3D printer.? I have never tried engraving Keypad buttons myself.? However, you need to remember that not only do you need to figure out the correct settings/process for doing the engraving, but after the key caps are engraved you need to fill the cuts your laser has made so each button has a smooth surface.? You may use up quite a few button caps before you master the process and achieve professional looking results.

Good luck with this.? It will definitely be an interesting and fun project.? Let me know how things work out.? If this is a success, then I'd be interested in working with you to put together an article on the process.?

I'm always happy to hear that there are people that enjoy my writing and find it valuable.

Thanks

Jay

Jay, thanks for your reply.

The idea is cool, but there are some nuances:

1. The project, I and the buttons are currently in France and sending the buttons to the USA and then waiting back will be a little long and, most likely, a little expensive :)

2. I have already bought a laser engraver and want to to master it in order to offer the best service to my customers.

3. Together with the button on the control panel, they deliver a buttons with a spare and I have something to practice on. But I decided to take the easy way first and ask my dear colleagues :)

Have a nice day! I read your blog carefully.

I can't provide any information on doing the engraving yourself.? However, you might want to contact laser engraver pro ().? He doesn't normally engrave Crestron buttons but I've used him in the past and he does a very good job.? You can just send him the buttons you have along with all the text you want engraved.?

Hope this helps

Jay

This is a new bug. I’ve noticed this a couple times as well recently. But it doesn’t seem to be always an issue. Haven’t tried to figure out any pattern to it yet

You’ve likely got a colorspace Mismatch. You said it’s only on direct tv so it’s probably that hdmi input. Try rebooting the directv itself first to see if it re-negotiates properly by itself. If not then just force the colorspace on that NVX input to RGB or YPbPr?

Good day, Colleagues!

Has anyone had experience laser engraving the Crestron C2N-CBF-P-B-T control panel buttons themselves?
Now there are about 70 of them in the project, but they have already been bought.
There is no time to order separate buttons with engraving, they will take a very long time to make and deliver.

I have an xTool D1 Pro machine at home, I want to try engraving myself.
Can someone tell me what power and speed of movement of the laser should be set?

Depends on whether you will sell it to anybody or just want to sell to other dealers.? ? Crestron Exchange is a private groupon facebook.

I use to be you type the symbol name hit enter and it would add the symbol and then clear the symbol name and then you could type another and hit enter.? now it doesn't clear.? I have this issue across multiple machines.? Why now?

Lutron



Can't remember which exact color matches the Latte in their satin finish.

Seems to be only for the DirecTV that they are watch at the moment on just this endpoint. The area has 3 endpoints and the other 2 are fine.? I change the stream address to the NVR and its fine.? Go back and it's still pink and green.? Any body have an idea?? I did try rebooting the endpoint.

Sent you a private email with some stuff...

Hello All,?

I need to add some user preset recalls for a VPL-GTZ380 projector, I am using the VPL-VW1000ES module from the application market place (basic controls I need work fine), does anyone have access to the API documentation I haven't been able to fin anything and haven't gotten a call back from Sony tech support.?

Thanks

Does anyone here have files that they would be willing to share. Trying to use RV-C to communicate with a motorhome. Its all CAN based. Have the pcan 232 adapter
