What's the concept of using the SIO? Are you using serial strings
into the SIO to switch sources from the outputs? Maybe look at using
analog init's instead?

The thing is that the Sierra Crestron module from Crestron sends a

**X2,5,0!!

of the number. When I try this in terminal from the PC, the first

without the zero works as it should, but he second line

My question is how do I get rid of the extra zeroes?

Thanks for all input.

The macro is trying to compensate for the tens digit, but I guess the
router doesn't accept a '0' as a valid tens digit. The macro from
crestron only only does crosspoint routing anyway, using an SIO and
you fill in the serial strings manually would probably be faster than
trying to fix the module.

Hi Lars



This looks like a video setting problem, have you allowed the mini player to
Auto-negotiate with the Projector? As we all know HDMI is not our best
friend at times. What I tend to do when installing Kaleidescape is fix the
video output for the content I have on the server. This then ensures you
will always have the best possible picture on screen. To do this in case you
don’t know go into the installer settings using the friendly URL
My-kaleidescape/installer



Now navigate to components, then select the settings for the player in
Question, the first page that is displayed is the video settings. You will
see four/Five Drop down menus, if this is set to Auto negotiate you should
see ‘Choose the best setting’ or something similar, can’t remeber the
terminolgy off hand and I’m too lazy to go down and switch my unit on :-).
This means that the player will try to auto negotiate to get the best
picture for either PAL or NTSC content. Set this to the setting that best
suits your projector i.e. 1080i or 1080p. Looking at the Spec’s of your unit
I would go with 1080p. Do this in all of the Drop down menus. To ensure you
cover all possible content.



The reason why the OSD works fine is its native 480p and as such it may be
displaying it at this res and as such tends to work great in every situation
its when you start playing back content that you have issues with certain
devices.

Hi Pros,
have a customer having picture issue connecting a brand new 1080p Mini

via HDMI to DVI cable to a Infocus Screenplay 777 proj.
Picture is like snowing when playing movie, ok picture when looking at

Anyone have any experiance regarding this?

Tony,
I've not used this Intesis but have used a Procon IP32 Modbus
Interface connected to a G50. That way the A/C system can still be
operated from the G50 if there's any problems with the Intesis or
Crestron systems.

Thank you both Matt and Chip Moody.

I should have mentioned that I have no problem talking to the router
via RS-232 from a PC.

I'm using a straight trough cable from the AV2 to the Sierra. Same
kind as I'm using from the PC. Is this normally a problem?

This is my first Crestron project, so I'm learning.

Thanks for all help.

That module should get you some form of action - certainly at

a response of some sort from the unit.

Are you seeing a string going out to the box in SIMPL Debugger but
nothing coming back? Any chance you need to swap pins 2 & 3 on your
cable? (Or stick a null-modem adapter inline) Did you make this
cable with just pins 2, 3 & 5 wired, or is this an "off the shelf"
cable? (Most of those will actually cause problems)

Any help out there?

You could give them a try.

CEN-COM was indeed during the first generation of equipment - X
Generation. You may wish to stick it behind a router to cut traffic
that the thing is seeing, they really didn't handle even moderate
traffic very well.

The CEN-COM was after and before my time, it came and went while I was on a
brief hiatus from this industry so I was never up on the specs. They pretty
much killed it when the QM-RMC came out. It should be interesting to see if
this fixes your issue or at least improves it.

Mark,

It's on a 10/100 switch; but since (AFAIK) all of the early CEN-stuff was
limited to 10/Half you may have a good point.

The SHOW INTERFACES STATUS from the switch (Cisco Catalyst 2920) shows that
it had auto negotiated to 10 meg half duplex, but I'll try forcing the
configuration just to eliminate that as a possibility. (Note to self for
when I need to change it back: interface Fa0/7)

Lincoln,

2 Things come to mind. Are you running it on a gig switch? And do you have
it set to auto-negotiate? Try setting it to 100/Full or 10/Full, I've seen
similar issues like this with other Crestron Ethernet stuff.

I've used both the Advent and the Concord.
I really haven't tried too much with keypad emulation, just real-time feedback.

There was a problem with the GE modules for the Advent a while back, where you'd get double keypad presses, but I think that was cleared up by a member of the Yahoo group (again, cleared up a while back).

I'm not fond of the Ademcos. Even the HAI is better.

Overall, I still like the GE Advent the best - it gives the best
emulation of the physical system keypad.

The GE NetWorx is genenerally good too, just a little more awkward for
jobs with multiple partitions.
