Weird (to me) TSW-1060 Hardbutton Issue
We have a 1060 in a project we inherited that is acting a bit strange. The lower 3 hardbuttons go "out" when the panel fully loads. The backlights turn off and the buttons are unresponsive in the button test page in setup.
We don't have access to the source files, but we initialized the panel and installed the latest firmware with the same results. When the panel is first loading, all the buttons light up, although the lower 3 are somewhat dimmer, so not an LED issue, besides an LED issue wouldn't kill the buttons. We also tried booting the panel with the Crestron Scheduling app, (as it turns off the hardbuttons), then rebooted it as a user project with the same results. Does anybody know of some sneaky, undocumented way to turn off these things individually that would survive clearing the panel and loading new firmware? I don't want to try a system restore, as it will force auth on, which is a giant PITA. I suppose we could downgrade the firmware before RESTORE, but I'd rather not brick the panel... Any ideas? |

Re: DMPS-300-C toolbox asks for password
We got 10 new DMPS3-300-C units a month or so ago and the first 4 we opened had passwords on them out of the box.? After a bunch of back and forth with Crestron and our sales rep the current story is there were new people on the testing line and they put passwords on them but forgot to take them off before shipping.? I was told repeatedly by True Blue that I needed to follow this process...
Which is press the HW-R button once then the SW-R button 5 times with a 1 second gap between pushes.? Which was supposed to do a factory recovery after which you could set the password (and likely have to load firmware).? Which I could never get to work, until someone else who had received some of these new units with existing passwords at a different university tried doing that same procedure but with a twist.? Instead of the prescribed one second between presses, press it 5 times as fast as you can.? Which for some reason worked.? After a half hour or so I connected with Toolbox and it prompted me to set a username and password. So try that. |

Re: TCP/IP Server stops listening
What I am hearing here is that the networking stack is underdeveloped and can¡¯t handle multiple successive connections like it should.
We buy Crestron gear for its strengths, Linux has networking as one of its strengths, and a large amount of public open source code that can train chatgpt4 to spit out decent code this would be one of those places I¡¯d enlist a low-power Linux machine if I thought limitations of the Crestron processor¡¯s TCP/IP stack were going to break things To Chatgpt4: ¡°?Write me a Python script that listens for numerous incoming events from diverse sources over tcp 51999 (each event is an incoming connection, then a string, then disconnect) and aggregate these and send them all to a single connection we keep open fulltime to 192.168.22.22 port 51999.¡± Asking chatgpt4 resulted in a multi-threaded code sample to do exactly this (note: I don¡¯t know if Axis cameras simply drop a string and disconnect or if it uses HTTP for example) but the same basic principle is shown. ?Sample code often comes out 90% correct and you apply your skills to bring it the rest of the way. ?You asked for workarounds. This could run on a dinrail mount pro-grade raspberrypi or similar, set to autostart on powerup. ?Python will run on anything (Windows, Mac, etc.) so I¡¯d have tested this on a desktop PC first to see if it solved the problem before moving along to dedicating a device to running it.? |
Re: TCP/IP Server stops listening
In text console type ¡°netstat¡± and you¡¯ll get a dump of connections. Look for your server in the list. You may want ¡°listenstat¡± instead. The point is if you look at the list several times you may see the server socket is opening and closing repeatedly. This will make the Ethernet stack unhappy as the processor has a finite number of sockets available. I know this isn¡¯t a solution, but it may help further diagnose the situation.?
