Hi -

I'm working on one of my first SIMPL programs after having worked with Extron for years.

I'm trying to add a Shure MTX Mute button to a SIMPL program without having any other MTX devices and struggling.?
I'm not seeing anything in Crestron DB for it and am sure I'm missing something easy.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I used an SIO to send commands last time I had to deal with Shure MTX - the protocol is on their website if I recall correctly.

Thanks Phil. Looking into this now.

I said MTX, I meant to say MXA.

This is what documentation I see from Shure. Not sure how exactly to incorporate with an SIO.

You will need to add a TCP/IP client to your program and connect to the button on Port 2202. You won't find anything specific for the MXA mute buttons in the Crestron database.

From there connect the Serial joins from your SIO to the TCP/IP client.
The rest is all just programming using the commands you want to send / receive inside the SIO. You can just play with sending / receiving commands inside debugger once you have the TCP/IP client if you are not sure what exactly to put in the SIO.

As Chris said, tcp/ip client on 2202.

SIO with inputs and parameters:
Mic.Poll : <GET DEVICE_AUDIO_MUTE>
Mic.Mute.On: <SET DEVICE_AUDIO_MUTE ON>
Mic.Mute.Off: <SET DEVICE_AUDIO_MUTE OFF>

Parameters and outputs:
<REP DEVICE_AUDIO_MUTE ON> : got.mic.mute.on
<REP DEVICE_AUDIO_MUTE OFF> : got.mic.mute.off

Thanks Phil and Chris.

I think I may have bit off a bit more than I can chew and would appreciate a bit more help if you're feeling so generous.

On my test bench I've got VC4, a TSW-770, and my MTA Mute.
My MTA Mute has a static IP of 192.168.1.114

I've got a button with digital 2 for mute_press and mute_fb. On a toggle, I have mute_press connected to the clock and mute_fb on the output.

I keep thinking that I've figured it out, then I try and put it together and have it fail. Many of my issues are from failing to understand much of SIMPL and I'm working on that.
I'm guessing the SIO Tx should be the same as the TCP/IP_Client Tx, same for each's Rx.?
I thought I had understood Connect and figured it was just a matter of putting in the IP or IPID, but not sure how to do that without it being a variable.

When does SIMPL start to make sense?

Ben

Here's a of a basic way to do it.

Use the signal of the toggle to send to your TSW for feedback.

What you do with the connection signals of the TCPIP Client is up to you. Some programmers just put the "connect" pin to "1" and go on with their lives and never encounter a problem. I like to make some kind of connection management to connect to the device only when needed and drop the connection when not in use.

I made this quick and dirty example based on the posts in this thread, I never had to control that device so I can't confirm that the strings are right but you'll get the idea!

Good luck!

It'll click sooner than you think.? A great resource, really the only one for beginners (besides actual Crestron training) is?

I've been doing this for a little over a decade and sometimes go back and watch the videos on symbols I don't use all that often.? I do this as both a refresher and for inspiration.

I'm doing this for more than 10 years too and I was doing Extron before.
I'm an electronics technician so when I started working with Crestron it was instantaneous, It brought me back in the '80s and '90s whan I was using logic gates ICs for automation. NAND gate was a 7400, NOR 7402, One Shot 74123, etc, etc.
I fell in love instantly!

I wanted to thank you all for both the reassurance and help on this specific issue.

I'm still not getting this to work exactly the way that I want, but I'm understanding the logic quite a bit more.
