Re: Masters2020 scheduling grid

 

Neil - they told us golds we had until the end of December before the general registration invite goes out. Not sure if silver will get a head start or if everyone would be included at that point.

Do you have any ports expose to the Internet?? I've had several cases where TCP/IP connections from in Russia and other oversea places causing Crestron processors to misbehave including causing the processor to reboot.? Closed the ports up and that fixed the issue.

One was my own processor that had an open TCP socket to the Internet that I was using for monitoring some of my processors out in the field.? At first, I notice all types of oversea places trying to hack the port.? Eventually some enterprising person figured out how to reboot my processor through the simple TCP client connection.? Leaves no trace when the processor reboots.? I only know they existed and where they where coming from because of router logs and emails the processor would send me when someone would try to connect.?

Long gone are the days when you could leave an expose port and not worry about someone trying to hack it.

Also I have had cases with an invalid DNS lookup on a UDP client socket back years ago caused the processor to reboot.? Worked fine when the DNS lookup worked but when the site because invalid, the processor would reboot whenever a connection was made.

Or maybe some other type of network traffic is causing issues.

I've also seen Crestron modules cause reboot or lockup issues when something isn't working quite right or some endpoint goes offline.

Basically, it could be almost anything.

Just ideas, as most of the log shown is of a boot up process, and doesn't show what happened prior to the reboot (from what I can tell, I'm no expert at deciphering Crestron's cryptic logs though).

I apologize, I think I was wrongly reading release notes - CCD stranded for Crestron Certified Drivers, while CrestronConnected is old type of their drivers¡­, So the release notes may be stating support for CrestronConnected displays¡­. But their use ¡°Drivers¡± word is ambiguous in that content, as well this note from the release notes:
  • Wake-On-LAN drivers from the Crestron Driver Portal are not yet supported?


Crestron Drivers Portal are for CCD drivers only¡­.

So, CCD for CrerstronConnected displays (the first driver listed under projector category on Crestron Drivers portal) will work with Mercury for any CrestronConnected compatible display, or my IP type CCD driver for Christie if projector is not CrestronConnected compatible - most high end projectors are not.
I have not seen CEC on any of the Christie projectors yet¡­. But I have seen tested only handful ?of them¡­.

Re: Mercury with Christie Projectors

Hi Andy,

Most low end Christie projectors are Crestron Connected, so I believe there is a CCD for Connected Projectors.?

Otherwise I did CCD for Christie:?


It is over IP, but it should be trivial to make it serial as well. Shout if you have difficulties, I¡¯ll port it to serial.?

Note: driver is written for high end Christie projectors, but should work on low end as well - protocol is almost identical.?

I am looking into IR control, but I have never had to to IR to a Christie projector before, are there discrete IR codes?

Does CEC control work on Christie Projectors?

Re: Roku2 v1.0

 

Yes, that module will work with a 2 series processor.? You need to put a TCP/IP client in your program and then tie the signals at the top of the module to the TCP/IPI client like?


Re: CP3 HW Watchdog timeout

 
Edited

Are you guys doing a lot of file I/O on the processor?? maybe the internal mem card is going bad?
Do you have automatic updates turned on and setup to update firmware automatically?? Maybe a newer firmware got botched?

Just ideas, as most of the log shown is of a boot up process, and doesn't show what happened prior to the reboot (from what I can tell, I'm no expert at deciphering Crestron's cryptic logs though).

If I'm not mistaken, the HW Watchdog is a low level kernel process.? One of it's tasks is to make sure that some process doesn't get stuck or in an infinite loop, and if it does, it forces a reboot to keep the system locking up permanently.? But my memory is going from a class I attended 3 years ago, so it may be a bit of a rusty memory.

Re: CP3 HW Watchdog timeout

 

This started happening to me as well!

A PRO3 that I have programmed a couple of years ago started rebooting out of the blue last week. Just this past weekend it rebooted over 20 times!

And the PLog shows the same message as you are getting: # HW Watchdog timeout

Haven't contacted trueblue just yet...
