Re: S# Library Error

 

Yup, started a case with Crestron to report it.

I've wasted like four hours on this because it gets updated silently.?
I can't believe they make such rookie mistakes releasing software.


Re: S# Library Error

 
Edited

Same problem here, but no solution so far.
Latest versions and VS2019

Update : going back to Crestron Lib version 2.19.76 solved it

Is this possible for a TSR-310? Would love to reboot it nightly due to locking up daily.

Thanks,

[For Sale] DMPS3-4K-350-C (NIB)

 

Hi all,

We're a Crestron dealer and have a new DMPS3-4K-350-C for sale that we don't need because we had to go in a different direction for a job due to supply chain yada yada. Considering these have a lengthy lead time, I'd like for this to go to a dealer that needs one, and we'll sell it at current dealer cost to a current dealer.

Let me know if interested.?

Newline touchscreen module

Hi,

?

I looked on market place but could not find an RS232 module for Newline touchscreens (NT series). Newline does not know of one.

?

Anyone here know of one? I found the codes so I¡¯m not SOL. Just thought there might be a nicely package module to use.

?

Have a great day,

CONSOLE is the symbol, but that¡¯s for the processor, not an outboard device. I don¡¯t think the SWAMP has a console tx$ and rx$ that you can add. I think you¡¯re going to have to connect to the SWAMP console via Telnet or CTP using a TCP/IP Client.

SIO or SEND to TCP/IP Client which points at the SWAMP on port 41795. Don't forget CR LF after the command.

Lessons Learned - Crestron EISC #simplwindows #useful #EISC

 
Edited

*I edited?this to reflect some of the conversations in response?to this post...

Crestron EISC (Ethernet Intersystem Communication) can be a confusing thing to some. I know it was to me, but if it is not confusing to you, then this post isn't for you. Keep in mind, this post contains info that I wish I knew when I was trying to accomplish EISC in my environment for an upcoming?project. Once I figured some stuff out, with much help from Crestron True Blue, It all became clear. So, it is my good intention to pass some of this info along to others.

I?scoured?the internet trying to find useful information on how to configure this for one of my installs. So, since I now have the info, I would share it so others who may be looking can get the info they need.?

The information I am sharing is based on the design of a particular install.

Project Framework:

There are a total of 8 rooms, all of which should work independently of one another, and per customer request, the rooms should be operating programmatically on their own processor (In the event there is something wrong with a processor, or with code, only affected rooms will be down, and not all of them). The routing is done using the Crestron NVX devices, totaling about 1000 inputs and outputs combined. Each room will have access to all inputs and outputs defined.?

Environment:
Processor - 9x CP4N
EISC - "3 Series TCP/IP Ethernet Intersystem Communications" (When adding items to Ethernet Devices, it is the very first item in the list)
Network Switch - CISCO C9300 (Using multiple VLANS)

VLANs:

  • VLAN 100?
    • DHCP Server Enabled
      • (Used to simulate the corporate LAN side of my system)?
    • CP4N 01 - LAN
  • VLAN 10
    • NVX DEVICES
    • CP4N 01 - SUBNET LAN
    • CP4N 02 - LAN
    • CP4N 03 - LAN
    • CP4N 04 - LAN
    • CP4N 05 - LAN
    • CP4N 06 - LAN
    • CP4N 07 - LAN
    • CP4N 08 - LAN
    • CP4N 09 - LAN

Programming the Ethernet Devices:
There was some controversy about me mentioning Cross Point Routing, so I need to clarify: EISC and Cross Points work in a similar way in that when one module is connected to another module (EISC or XPoint) what is changed on the input of one is communicated to the output of the other. For example, when digital join i1 goes high on module A, digital join o1 goes high on module B.

As well, there are variables that need to be configured to get the two modules to talk to each other. In Cross Points, you have to use the Equipment/Control Crosspoint Connect (ECCON) module to pair the Control Crosspoint module to the Equipment Crosspoint Module. However, when it comes to using EISC across processors, you have to set the IP of the EISC modules to point to the IP Address of the other processor and match IPIDs. If using EISC within the same processor and want to connect to an EISC in another program, you would use the loopback address (127.0.0.2), still making sure to use the same IPID.?

**NOTE: You can select the ethernet device and press F6 to open the Device Settings and select the IP Net Address tab.

EISC IP Address Settings when routing between processors:

  • CP4N 01 (172.10.0.1)
    • IPID 11: "IO Routing RM A" -?172.11.0.1
    • IPID 12: "IO Routing RM B" - 172.12.0.1
    • IPID 13: "IO Routing RM C" - 172.13.0.1

As a note, this is the process that I have learned with help from True Blue Support. Now that I know it, it seems really straight forward, and I wonder why I ever needed to find the answers to this at all. But for those who haven't had that realization yet, I thought by providing the answer to this question to the world wide web, I would help someone else. If for some reason someone else knows a better way, or would like to add more context that would help others in addition to what I have provided, I think we are all willing to listen. I always find it interesting to discover learn about what is an unknown-unknowns from those that know the known-unknowns.?

xiocloud vc4 device lost - cannot add license to it

 

hello group, does anyone has experienced a "lost" device in xiocloud? I was using a vc4 on trial mode, and after the trial period, I've already purchased the license for 1 room, and now that I want to license it, I cannot see within my room or anyhwere else in xiocloud.?
If I try to claim again the device, a message shows that "failed to do it, because it is already claimed".?
So I cannot unclaim the device, nor license it.

I do can access the vc4 main web page, and also see the vc4 in toolbox (devices discovery), but anything else.?
I already try to uninstall and reinstall the vc4 software in my linux platform without any luck.. the serial number was exactly the same so same issue.?

as is the only way to license the room, besides the offline mode with the usb stick, does anyone know of another backdoor or idea to get around this?
thanks?
nico


Re: Lutron QSX and Search/Replace efficiencies (or lack of...)

 

Yes, that's what I've done historically also...basic low-rent manual labor to get things into the parameters. I haven't found any way to simplify things, though QSX eliminates the ability to Search/replace things since you have to have a '0' value as a base (other module sets allow for Alpha characters which makes S/R easier and more reliable).
Also QSX now has separate Button and LED IDs which doubles the work and most IDs are 4-5 digits vs 1-3 digits, which requires you to pay even more attention to your typing and verification

*** ALSO!!! ***
The ID values in the parameters (if not '0') have to be a relevant number that is in the QSX program. i.e. if the correct ID is 14533 and you accidentally type 14553, If it is not a relevant ID# the whole module will not be initialized...
Thus, only '0' and relevant ID#'s will work. otherwise, part/all of your module set will be non-functioning...

Thank you Lutron!!??

Re: VC4 Nonvolatile Strings

 

I use a password module that uses file operations in s+ and haven't noticed any issues.? What version of VC-4 are you running?


Re: Lutron QSX and Search/Replace efficiencies (or lack of...)

 

For all my lutron jobs I have the lighting logic in a separate slot which I start out with a template program. 32 rooms worth of modules with 18 lighting loads per room. I have all the href_IDs set at 0 and just go thru my integration report and enter IDs for the loads/keypads I need, and leave the unneeded loads/rooms at 0. Its a bit tedious but not really different than I did with QS or RA2/3 slots- maybe 4-8 hours on my biggest jobs to enter all the info in. I'm not smart enough to figure out how to suck in the Lutron XML or whatever and autofull my program with all the lighting loads...


Re: Lutron QSX Module Suite

 

Ive done a couple QSX with room counts in the 20s and I havent experienced any issues. I'm just pulsing the Connect signal at startup and dont use the Disconnect signal. Using v1.1 modules here.?


Re: Lutron QSX and Search/Replace efficiencies (or lack of...)

 

Aren't Vantage's VIDs handled exactly like QSX?


Re: VC4 Nonvolatile Strings

 

Oh geez... its even broken the regular password module because it also saves string to memory.
