Colorlight Z6 control?


 

Anyone have Crestron controlling a Colorlight Videowall processor?

Thank you
Jon


 

Hi Jon,

Did you happen to find any information on this? I am looking to do the same thing.

Thanks,
Matt


 

Yes. I got it going. Just an SIo with strong. The unit doesn¡¯t give any feedback unsolicited


 

*strings


 

Do you have a list of the strings you used? Or the API?

Thanks.


 

I have them if you need them. My email is nwells@...

i can send you the documentation that I recently used on a project using the Z6.?


 

@Anewdaytotri Is it the documentation that's only a couple pages and not so well written in english? I have one of these coming up and that's the only info I have.


 

Yes, that is correct. I can show you how I implemented it if you would like.?
I had a system with an LED wall using 3 of the z6 units.?
Let me know and I can help you through it.


 

Yea that would be great. The protocol is oddly worded in some areas. We have a 5x5 coming up using this so any tips or info would be much appreciated!


 

Sent you a PM. new to the website so still figuring out how it works. if you don't get it let me know.


 

I am also having difficulty getting 3rd party API documents from this company. Could you send me the doc you used?


 

I could also use a copy of the doc or program you used.

Thank you kindly!


 

Hello All,
I have uploaded a zip file with a word document showing my work with some basic instructions, and the PDF I have from Planar with the commands and format (most likely what you already have).

It can be found in the files section:
/g/crestron/filessearch?o=0&q=colorlight

If you can't get to it let me know. if you have questions, please ask me.


 

Thanks, Anewdaytotri!

Hi Anewdaytotri,

I download it today, very impressed by your Z6 Documentation. Appreciate it!

Cheers,


 

Any chance you could post some example strings from Crestron?

I'm having fun trying to make sense of the protocol manual....

Just need to switch between presets 1,2,3

SOunds like a need to send a Heartbeat packet also??

Any help much appreciated!


 

Hello Anewdaytotri,
? Thank you for the info and example code for the Z6!? I've been handed a job using a S6F Planar and the protocol looks similar but the S6F manual only mentions UDP connection.??
I see in your code that there is a subsystem folder for "Datapath".? The system I am working on uses a Datapath VSN400 running WallControl 10.? Do you have experience with controlling those?

Thanks again!
