Cisco SX80
Hi I haven't tried all the commands but the module is working as it should at our office. There is one thing you should do though: Since the SX80 boots up faster than the C40, there is a possibility that the codec will stop sending feedback after a reboot. To fix this you change the polling interval in the module (inside folder "Connection Logic: RS232" - "Poll for connectionstatus"). After I changed this from 25s / 30s down to 8s / 10s the codec has been working great. Hope this helps! |
There are many differences and changes must be within the S+ module so the newly changed strings can be parsed correctly. I just modified the Latest 2.5 mod to get me going for the time being although I wish Crestron made one weeks ago. The call status has changed in addition to volume too. You must also send a heatbeat every 5s to trickout the SX to believe the Cisco touch 10 is connected if you happen to want to get rid of it. Last thing, none of the IR commands work, so if you were planning on using an old UI, make sure you only use non-IR type commands to mimic the included Cisco touch 10 controller.?

This is probably good timing on Crestrons part. For those of you that didn't already know Cisco is EOLing the C Series integrator line and standardizing the SX80 as the Integrator model. I do appreciate they are making all 8 of the mic inputs phoenix connectors instead of XLR though.

Just looking at the new module briefly this evening, it's interesting it includes IR key inputs but the SX80 API says the API calls generated by the new module aren't supported in the SX80. ?
I have tried the C40 XCommand Key Press API call on the SX80 and, as advertised, it does fail. Also, looks like they did away with the inputs for constructing ad hoc numbers via a numeric and alphanumeric keyboard and replaced it with a string input for a number you construct yourself. |
My coworker and I are working on this module with Crestron. There will be a new version coming out shortly and the IR emulation will disappear. If you send the IR emulation commands, the SX80 will respond with an acknowledgement, but it won't actually do anything. There's a long back-story as to why the commands are in there, but they will not be there with the next version. :)
The module is not 100% perfect, so I would recommend updating to the new version when it comes out.? Another thing to note with the SX80 - there is no on-screen display. If you want to make configuration changes, you will need to use the Cisco TP, or the CODEC's webpages. It helps if you think of controlling it more like a phone call. We are having to do some serious redesigns of how our touch panels work with these things.? |

Something to note is the Cisco strongly discourages the use of the remote emulation commands in the API. They say that everything that the on-screen display does uses the same API as what is in the API document and to not make the user look at 2 screens for their control.

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýWhat version of FW is the codec running? ?There were changes to the address book API in v7.0+ On Aug 27, 2014, at 10:51 AM, "elrichmeister@... [Crestron]" <Crestron@...> wrote:

Its using?TC7.1.4.908e4a9.
I snooped in the module, and it looks like it needs to register feedback once it logs in. when connected to debugger and i push the Mic Mute it does send the correct command but it does not get feedback on the state of the Mic, it just sends back an acknowldgement. here is an example on my debugger when push the mic mute toggle 10:16:22 - 08-27-2014: VTC_Microphones_Mute_Toggle -> 1 10:16:22 - 08-27-2014: VTC_Tx -> xCommand Audio Microphones UnMute\x0D\x0A 10:16:22 - 08-27-2014: VTC_Rx -> \x0D\x0AOK\x0D\x0A*r AudioMicrophonesUnmuteResult (status=OK): \x0D\x0A** end\x0D\x0A Now there is a Touch 10 connected to the system, and when push DnD on the touch 10 i do see the registered FB come in and see it change on the crestron touch panel. it just does not respond the same way if i send the DND toggle from the crestron panel. |
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýTo get unsolicited feedback from a Cisco codec, each control device (Crestron processor in your case) must register and subscribe to the data points it wants to monitor.? I would think that the Crestron module should take care of this but it's likely it's waiting for a trigger to initiate the process. That usually comes in the form of a predefined poll (usually uptime with Cisco C series) and an expected response.? I'm guessing something is either preventing ye Crestron module from initiating the process or the SX80 from responding with the expected reply.? On Aug 27, 2014, at 11:51 AM, "elrichmeister@...

Yea its actually very inconsistent. Some times it does receive the the proper feed back. on the module it does send commands to register feedback for certain control points of the cisco. For what ever reason the cisco does not send the discreet feedback for that control point.
The crestron module has stepper after a successful login that initiates these strings: echo off\n xFeedback register Status/Video/Input/MainVideoSource\n xFeedback register Status/Video/Input/Source/ConnectorId\n xFeedback register Status/Conference/Presentation/LocalSource\n xFeedback register Status/Audio/Volume\n xFeedback register Status/Audio/VolumeMute\n xFeedback register Status/Audio/Microphones/Mute\n xFeedback register Status/Call/Status\n xFeedback register Status/Call/CallType\n xFeedback register Status/Call/RemoteNumber\n ... etc Im assuming that it sends these so that it subscribes for feedback. |
Have you tried this???

I just downloaded that mod too. About a month ago, I just modified the C-Series to work with the SX-80. Looking at the new mod from the marketplace I notice they left the IR commands and even used the D-Pad and speed keys on on of their GUI subpages which makes me wonder. The touch 10 does not reference those commands as they are only used on the C-Series as you need the on screen UI to run through the menu but the SX-80 is totally touch screen driven. Wondering why they left these commands in the module?
