Re: Trying to migrate away from D3 for lighting.
I have found that D3 Pro can do everything I've needed to in lighting projects. The key is to build a project-specific logic and/or device module to handle the custom stuff. Maybe a separate DIN-AP2 with an RSD if it's really hairy.

Re: Trying to migrate away from D3 for lighting.
For one, making dynamic labels for buttons on a touch-panel. I.E. I change preset 1 to be dinner mode, now relabel the button to be "dinner" adding in a function to allow the user to change the system time from the touch-panel is a fight trying to make a Simpl+ module to be D3 ready, Anything advanced at all takes at least 10X more time in D3.

And then how glacier slow it is to use. Granted I only have a quad core 3ghz i7 laptop and nothing like a modern fast computer, but the sheer amount of time it takes to do anything in a touch-panel design is amazing. Yes I know vtPro is slow as is, but when used inside D3 it's 4X slower. Daylight harvesting is also a lot harder to do in D3. Most anything I have tried to do in regards to LEEDS certification and daylight harvesting that is the most effective is completely missing in D3. --- In Crestron@..., Nathan Hesson <nhesson@...> wrote:

I am also curious about what shortcomings you've found D3 to have.

Mac running virtual and certain keys quit working
Ok got an iMac although my MacBook Pro has done this to me as well in the past and I'm pretty sure I was running Snow Leopard and XP in VMWare on them both. Now both are Lion, Parallels and XP. In Simpl when you go to type on a symbol's line both the enter keys stop functioning along with some other ones that make it a real PITA to work, I think a reboot fixes it but it will start acting up again. I ran across a fix that was stupid easy and should have bookmarked it, I think it had to do with Caps lock or something that the press got registered but the release didn't and something get's it corrected and synced up again but I have forgot what. It may have had something to do with Multi Monitor as well, got 2 extra displays attached to the iMac figured it might be useful info to throw in. If anyone knows the fix for this, please remind me or if more info is needed let me know.
Thanks Jason |
Re: Android Tablet: Can I Use Crestron Mobile?
It's pretty much the same if the tablet is the same rez. If not(as in the case with my phone), the app scales. Although you could end up with buttons that are too small(as in the case with my phone). VTPro is kind of flaky changing page sizes in mobile for phones/tablets.

Also, they don't seem to be able to do the page flip effects as discussed in a previous thread. --- In Crestron@..., "markcrestrongroup" <mark@...> wrote:

Yes you can use the Crestron App on an Android, only issue you might run into is the screen resolution between iPad and Android. Pete --- In Crestron@..., "markcrestrongroup" <mark@...> wrote:

Android Tablet: Can I Use Crestron Mobile?
Sorry, but I'm still not clear.
I have a client with an iPad, currently setup and working fine with Crestron Mobile. He wants to add an Android tablet. I have done projects fine with 2 or more iPads...can I simply add this Android tablet in as another "iPad" (as far as SIMPL and VtPro-e go?...it's not "iPad", but "Mobile"...) I saw R2 and would like to try at some point, but would like to wrap up a working Android today if I can using what I already have, just adding in another "iPad" to my programming and having him get the $99 Crestron Mobile App for Android on his tablet. I already told him to go to Android Market and get the app...:0 Thanks Mark |
Re: Trying to migrate away from D3 for lighting.
Learnable presets are pretty straight forward unless they want to be able
to add and remove loads. I'm curious what situations you have come across that you find D3 isn't the best solution? Mark On Fri, Mar 30, 2012 at 9:35 AM, Tim <timgray.geo@...> wrote: ** [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |

Re: How do you locate the projects folder in Simpl Windows?
The project folder is the folder where the actual .smw file resides.

Crestron Mobile can do animated page-flips. There's an option in the Properties setting of each page, or it can be set globally for the entire project. --- On Friday, March 30, 2012 at 4:40 AM, olly_penguin wrote: |

It could also be the very common "swollen battery" issue, as someone else mentioned. I got it off Ebay (very cheap) so I don't have any official options, just somehome based fixes. The "official" option is to send it to Crestron for repair, which *ANY* Crestron dealer can do for you. Not that they will, but they can :-) I'd try calling a couple of dealers in your area, to see if they'll help. |
Extron MVC121 module in file section?
Any used this module yet and verify it works?
Going to try it later today on site somewhere. It looks like its solid, although I wonder if you have to use an oscillator when ramping the vol up and down commands. Otherwise the user would have to keep pressing the up/down buttons. (I could be wrong) Also, do you have to press the "vol view" button once or multiple times to get the feedback to drive the analog scaler for you vol meters. thanks in advance and especially to the creator of this module! |

Sadly not - on all counts.

I'd love the Crestron iPad app to support the features - such as the things you describe below - that are (IMHO) expected by today's users. If you'd be kind enough to raise some feature requests on TB, you never know, someone with some iOS development clout at Crestron might eventually realise we're not in the nineties any more.
