Yes, the VTPro source file has the connection info specified for the IPID, control system IP and port number.?
Still does not work, though

Re: Xpanel web conversion tool

 

Load the converted file to your processor, make sure you enter the ip and ipid when you convert and browse to the processor and it should work.

When running the generated Core3Xpanel.html (by clicking in the project folder and manually launching the Html page). I do get the option to download the C3P client as you describe.?
However, I cannot use a browser to serve that same page after it is loaded.?

Yes, I am trying to just get something into the control system as this is an older system and Xpanel web support was a last minute request from end user/installers. There is no time or budget to convert to HTML5 on this system.?

Re: Xpanel web conversion tool

 

To my knowledge, that's not what the conversion tool does. It converts a web panel compiled project to a desktop panel compiled project (c3p file) in cases where the source files for the xpanel are not available for you to do the conversion yourself in VTPro.? It was meant to be used as a last ditch way to just get SOMETHING working when Flash died.??


Xpanel web conversion tool

 

I found threads here from a few years back but the info there does not point to a solution.?
So, I am making a new thread. - Tray

All,

Has anyone been able to get Xpanel web convert tool to work??

Conversion runs fine but it will not serve from the control system after loading.?
Even used the Conversion tool itself to send the Web project. Still no Xpanel when I browse into the control system IP address.?

Have to do this for the first time and the Xpanel web project will not show from 4 series web server.?
I get the user login, after login its just the standard CP4N setup web page.?

Also, tried browsing direct to the Core3Xpanel.html file. That did not work either.?
I did try the Webinit command and I get a 'pass' response.?

CP4N>webinit

WEBINIT - PASS?

?


Re: Remapping IP IDs

 

Andrew - I'd love to follow up on this post you made waaayyy back in 2016 about setting up IP Table - I have the exact same situation right but with a CP4 - I've tried every possible way of getting the devices remaped or manually changing the IP table using console commands, but find that there are still conflicts.? I think what I'd like to understand is how you defined the devices in the program - if you defined one set of devices for one room and then remapped all for each program.. .or if you had to define ALL the devices for ALL rooms in the program and then each room's program only remapped the one's it actually needed.? I'd also love to know if you are able to share or sell the # module you created.

We have a CCD driver for KODI that can be used with the SIMPL wrappers on 4-series.


Re: Simpl+ Editor Problems

 

I tried that. I replaced the S+ editor .EXE with my own .EXE and tried dumping any command line arguments it received and it got nothing. I think they open the .EXE and then send an API call to the window to open the file. Same with when you compile a file and it tells the open SIMPL Windows to refresh module data. I tried all this back when I made the Notepad++ plugin. I spent a while trying to intercept calls and a few other things and finally just gave up on it. It wouldn't work with VSCode anyway. The way the build task system works, you can't just open a file by itself, you have to open the containing folder. That's why if you open a USP file directly with my plugin installed, it will reset itself by opening the folder first and then the USP file.

That S+ plugin by MWGustin is out of date. If you switch to the one I wrote (Eric Walters), you can go into the VSCode settings for the plugin and enable what systems you want to be able to compile for. It also has error highlighting if your compile has errors and some other things. It's all in the readme for the plugin. Be aware that to get build tasks to work (CTRL-SHIFT-B) you have to right click your code folder and open it with VSCode, instead of an individual S+ USP file. It's a limitation of VSCode, or it's more how VSCode is designed to be used.

I tried to tie into the SIMPL?Windows call when you right click a S+ module and edit it but I can't figure out how to do that. I would just normally keep a VSCode instance of that program's folder open along with SIMPL Windows.

Ok, one more thing.? So, you are working in SimplWin, you right-click on an S+ module, and choose Edit User Module from the pop-up men.? Any way to make that open VSCode instead of the Crestron S+ Editor?? That is a much more efficient workflow than having to open VSCode and locating the file to edit.?

Thanks
