Hi folks, We're trying to directly control a Stingray2 from a CP3, using the CP3 IR out to the Stingray2's 3.5mm IR jack.------------------------------------- Jeff Klein, DMC- E Audio Visual Project Manager Dept of Defense Washington D.C.

We've tried every combination of wiring after the diagram Haivision gave us for a 3.5mm TRS to IR bud didn't work (even though it was an IR bud cable diagram, it identified signal, VCC and ground connections). I've got an email back into Haivision, so hopefully their engineers can have some input, but the IPTV set top boxes aren't made by them (OEM from China), so it's always been difficult getting any modifications or detailed info.

After reading into it a bit more, it doesn't appear we have to strip the carrier with a direct connection...the 3.5mm IR receiver jack is expecting a modulated signal as it doesn't get demodulated until it hits the circuit board inside the Stingray, so it should take a direct connection from the CP3 with just the signal and ground wires connected (disregarding the VCC connection)...but it doesn't work even though Haivision thinks it should (but doesn't have any documentation yea or nay on actually trying it).

So Phil, is there a way to strip out the carrier frequency? We figured out that we do indeed need to convert the modulated codes that the CP3 would send out of its IR port into the demodulated code that the receiving IR bud would put out, but we're having trouble figuring out how to do that. Haivision is trying to help, but we're not quite there. Can the CP3 IR port even do that? Can any IR port? We really wanted to use the SVSi decoder IR control port for this, but it will only do IR outputs, not IR or serial like the CP3 can do, so if it has to be a serial output to simulate a demodulated signal, then we might not be able to use the SVSi method. Thanks,

Phil, Are you talking about in Device Learner in Toolbox? If so, there wasn't an option that we saw to save without carrier, either with the IR file that we "learned" or the Crestron Haivision "Set Top Box" IR file. We also can't find DEAL anywhere...it's not something we've used, but recognize the name, but we can't find it online or on our Crestron PC anywhere.

Sort of. :)? The "new and improved" version in Toolbox seems to have removed some handy features... GeoffOn Thu, Feb 18, 2016 at 12:05 PM, FBC Tech Team sound@... [Crestron] <Crestron@...> wrote:

Errrm,
Yes, Device Learner in TB - but the strip carrier function does not seem to be there (I'm fairly sure it used to be...). As Jeremy said, use FTP to get the legacy WinDEAL software will strip out the carrier. Just whatever you do with WinDEAL, do not try to configure the learner hardware if it's not actually connected... bad things will happen. Cheers Phil. |
