Re: NVX Weirdness

 

Thanks for the replies, everyone.

Yes, there is a TSTAT in the rack reading 74 degrees, and it controls the mini-split unit.
They had originally supplied the unit from a shared condenser, and we received temp warnings because it was in heat mode for the winter.
So, it has its own outdoor unit now.

Also, the rack is enclosed with intakes on the bottom and fans to expel heat from the top.

It's just kind of crazy that 6 of the 7 363 cards had just the username and password reset.
I don't even think that a console initialize would reset just the UN and PW.

Heat is always an issue.? That said, there is heat and then there is pant on fire.

?

Have you deployed any active cooling?? Do you have proper build distribution to funnel

The heat In and Out of the Rack?? ?As we all know, heat rises.? If you have adequate inlet and outlet vents

In the right places, the rack can cool without active cooling.? This naturally assumes you don’t have a tube or Class A

Amp cooking the rest of your gear.

?

We typically utilize active cooling, at the very top of the racks, and also utilize variable speed fans with a T-Stat.?

This also assumes that there is enough $$$ in your build budget to get the job done more-better. ?

Do you think heat could be a factor in the rack which is hard to access ?

Re: NVX Weirdness

 

Heat could always be a factor, but we haven't received any heat alarms from any of the network devices installed there.
Also, the closet has its own mini-split.

The chassis power supply could definitely be a possibility, though.

NVX Weirdness

 

Just wondering if anyone else has seen anything like this?

DM NVX chassis with 8 cards installed, with all NVX cards on the same firmware ... 7.1.5259.00030.

Everything has been working fine for 6 months.
All of a sudden, 6 of the 8 cards are showing that they are in "First Boot" mode.
Here's the strangest part, the only thing that has been initialized is the login.
Every other setting is still completely intact ... hostname, IP info, multicast setup, input routing, EDID, etc.
There is a director in the system, but I don't think that it can just reset the username and password.
Once I setup the login credentials again, everything is back online with the director and working as it was before.

This isn't in a rack that is easily accessible by people.
It is in a hidden closet in a residential installation, so reset from the chassis isn't a concern either.

TB is completely baffled, as am I.

As a precaution, I'm going to script some new firmware, but I just wanted everyone to be aware.

Re: restaurant reservations with Crestron

 

Dodged a bullet there, showed owner TablesReady software @ $50 monthly takes care of all his needs for reservations and remote contact of customers. Now onto audio system.

Thanks for all the input.


Re: Find a rouge parameter in a simpl program

 

Awesome. Glad it worked for you.


Re: current lutron modules

 

They used to be on the Application Market but they are no longer there (only the other systems are there which is odd...). If you have a Lutron login you can get them from their hub and it lets you get the r04 version.

There are r05 versions out there too- I was given a couple of the modules from one of the guys at Control Concepts. It had fixes to issues I had found on several sites. It was just for the Dimming Load Control, Dimming Load Parsing, and Shade modules. I dont want to share those without their permission though. I think some of them are in this group though and if they give the blessing then I'll post them up.?

Also I wonder if the admins here have an issue with us adding the r04 QS modules to the files section. Seems something many people ask for. I think just because you arent a Lutron dealer doesnt mean you shouldnt have access to the Crestron modules...


Re: current lutron modules

 

Link link from Control Concepts site didn't work for me. So they sent me the latest which is R04.?

I'll send it to you.


Re: Find a rouge parameter in a simpl program

 

Alex,

F9 & replace with an empty parameter worked a treat as the process will fail and brings up the Replace Substrings dialog with a Warning - Could not replace Parameter Zone_href_ID on Symbol: S:x.x.x.x.x
So that enabled me to track down the rouge ID's.
Thanks


Re: current lutron modules

 

Yes I should have specified. ?I’m after the QS modules.?

My thinking is that custom programming this app with Crestron would cost about 10% more than buying a system designed for the purpose...
i.e. if the Res.System costs $ 6000 my estimate would be $ 6600. if it cost 10000 my estimate would become $ 11000...:)


Re: current lutron modules

 

Are you looking for QS or QSX modules...they're VERY different!...


Re: restaurant reservations with Crestron

 

Not familiar with the exam similarity but having a meeting with owner tomorrow and will suggest a third party product for reservation.?


Re: restaurant reservations with Crestron

 

"This feels like a Crestron exam question from a while back."? "Wrong tool for the job"

Can confirm, a very similar requirement for a reservation system was on the CCP exam this past summer.? The ironic part is, that exam had no A/V in it at all.? Every single aspect of the exam SCREAMED "Build a solution to a scope of work entirely outside the Crestron/AV wheelhouse, and use none of the functions for which you would actually want to spec a crestron-based system."? It seemed to remove the "practical" part from giving a practical exam! Ha ha.? Reminded me of when I gave a task to some of our interns to teach them about S+, "make this touchpanel play tic tac toe with you, complete with declaring victory when a winning move is made."

You could possibly run a browser on the dge that is running the panel. Have the browser running the reservation app.

My thoughts as well since there are other platforms that already have that capability but since the remaining part of the restaurant is being controlled by Crestron, owner asked, if possible, to add in reservations control as well.

This feels like a Crestron exam question from a while back.

?

But this is also a great example of “wrong tool for the job” / “why reinvent the wheel”? Pretty much any competent restaurant point of sale system will do this better, cheaper, faster, and more reliably than you’ll be able to (quickly) do this – particularly the whole process-email-cancellation portion of this.

?

Is there something that one of the off the shelf solutions doesn’t do that the client needs?

?

If you really need to do this probably leveraging one of the POS APIs and just using Crestron for the frontend would be the better way to go but that’s about where my awareness ends – Aloha and Micros are the major players (IIRC) in this space and bonus that that would also allow the client to leverage integration with services like OpenTable and Resy for booking (rather than reinventing that wheel again)?

?

If you really, really, really need to do this C# and dictionaries would be the first path I’d walk down but only with a gun to my head – not because it’s conceptually difficult but because WHY?

has anyone used Crestron as a reservation system for a restaurant?

I have been tasked with creating an interface using TSD-2220-B that allows hostess to make reservations for seating of up to 224 people (that is the max occupancy) there are 56 tables each containing 4 chairs. Selecting any available seating based on date/time from 1 table to all 56 tables. Reservations are being sent via email to customer for conformation. Chairs are not a factor since selecting a table reserves all 4 chairs at once. Customer can cancel at any time via email or by calling in to hostess.

Don’t want to be pessimistic, but.

I can think of no worse purpose for a Crestron system. It could run a carwash better that a restaurant.
