Lutron QSX Keypad monitor possible?

 

We are about to upgrade an older Homework Illumination system to a QSX system that the previous integrator heavily used the Keypad Monitor Module to control Crestron devices from the Lutron keypads. I do not see the equivalent in the QSX modules, am I just missing it or is this not longer possible?
For example in several rooms the up/down arrows control Crestron blinds tilt/open/close with a button press/hold, blinds move as long as the button is pressed. Thanks for any feedback.


Re: VC4-PC3 / lost license multiple times with USB standalone dongle

 

Via remote support session, Crestron re-applied the room license to the server via Unix console.?
Support was good, Turns out the VC4 needs to connect to the internet/cloud in order to get firmware updates.?

VC4-PC3 / lost license multiple times with USB standalone dongle

 

All,?

Anyone have any ideas of how to make a VC4-PC3 stable so that it can find the offline dongle??
First time this happened about a year ago, the VC4 firmware was out of date. After the upgrade and other tweaks by Crestron, the PC3 seemed okay.?
Tech arrived on site today and I found that the same unit will no longer recognize the USB license dongle.?

Would appreciate any guidance if others have any to offer.
Am already on hold w Crestron to get a new case number for this unit.?

-- From the unit web page:

Your server's Room License is expired, none of your rooms are operational.
A new version of Virtual Control is available. You can read the release notes here. Please contact your IT Administrator to perform the server software update.
You have exceeded your room license of [0]. Not all rooms will be operational

HZ-THSTAT Scheduler v1.7

 
Edited

"He asks, expecting the answer no!..."

I have a project with (7) of the HZ-THStats with the latest FW and am using the Crestron HZ-THSTAT w5-2 Scheduler v1.7 module.
The client has set up some daily schedule as well as 'Away' schedule settings.
He's been away for over a month with all TStats in 'Away' mode, and 1-2 of these keep falling out of Away mode to 'run Schedules' mode every 2-3 days.
It is always the Kitchen stat and sometimes the MBed stat, but never the others. All are programmed similarly.
The only external trigger for the Away and Run Schedules modes are set by steppers which control all of the stats.

Anyone seen this behavior??? I won't bother to ask TB as I'm too old to wait for anyone to be interested in this one...

Hit him up on Linkedin


Re: Looking for code

 

Yeah, so I've heard :(

Hopefully the programmer is on here and has his own repository.?

More often than not, you're pretty much going to have to start over from scratch, if the previous integrator was Whitlock, unless you get really lucky.


Re: Looking for code

 

No archive is on the processor.

My company is trying to update some old existing code.? Looks like it was done by Whitlock in 2016. Is there anybody here that's be able to assist me in finding the source code??

Re: UC-ENGINE / Flex kit panel shows all joins high on startup

 

Hi,?

How many entries do you have on the IP Table on the UC-Engine??


Re: Mid Atlantic UPX-RLNK-2000R-8 Outlet Control

 

Did you find there was a trick to connecting to it, or have I just got something wrong with my setup maybe?


Re: Android APP ETA

 

According to the release notes you need at least 3-Series FW?1.8001.0214.01, that would exclude MC3s...

I'm wondering where that requirement is coming from because it's basically all CIP communication like with any regular touchpanel. My only guess is that they started developing when that FW version was current and never tested with older ones.


UC-ENGINE / Flex kit panel shows all joins high on startup

 

Teams kit connected to DMPS3-4K-250-C.? After a program reload, all subpage visibility joins and even button feedback joins on the panel act like they are high, even though they show the expected behavior in Debugger.? DMPS3 and UC-ENGINE on current firmware.? Any ideas?


Re: Mid Atlantic UPX-RLNK-2000R-8 Outlet Control

 

Hi, We have a module for this that we are about to release.? Send an email to support@... and we can help.


Mid Atlantic UPX-RLNK-2000R-8 Outlet Control

 

Anyone mange to get one of these working in Crestron? I cannot find a way to get an SSH module to connect to it. The UPS sits on the control subnet of a CP4N and I¡¯ve tried 2 processors. Putty works no problem and I can connect and control the thing via SSH from an Extron processor. The SSH module I¡¯m using in Simpl will successfully connect to other devices fine - just not this one.

I¡¯m using the SSH 1.8 symbol in Crestron and when I go to connect, it goes nuts spamming between ¡°not connected¡± and ¡°trying to connect¡±. Same credentials as with putty and extron.


Re: Android APP ETA

 

So since I have now added SSL, and still can't get it to work on my MC3, I went to add SSL to the older Android app. Guess what, now it will not save it as a configuration.
Tried to just save it without SSL, still will not save. No more phone app for me.
BASTARDS!!!


Re: Android APP ETA

 

Please allow me to scream out loud for once: SUCK IT APPLE USERS - h265 streaming is working on Android, it does not on iOS Crestron Go (although it could be older iPad to blame, regardless please don't take the joy from me). I can view h.265 @ 3840x2160@15fps glitch free on Samsung S10/Android 12.


Re: Android APP ETA

 

I'm trying to keep up with all the posts to clarify I'm guessing SIP isn't there.?..please be YET ...and visit FREE :)

I did set up SSL. Will see if a newer firmware will let it work.
