Just for big picture perspective, since Crestron fully supports talking TCP/UDP over the network, nothing stops anyone from leveraging that capability to just talk to Crestron by developing native iOS

Hi Markus -- I'm pleased to see you took this and ran with it and found success! Here is what you are going to do to get access to function and media keys. It looks like you have already found the fil

I threw the code and the instructions into a Pastebin --- https://pastebin.com/c2MPHAZ0 -- come back and search for this later if you decide to try it. My Pastebin contains links to order the same har

Ok, so RS232 to Bluetooth HID keyboard? Here we go! Just for fun, I went and grabbed an ESP32 Arduino microcontroller (actually I grabbed an M5Core Basic, which is an ESP32 in an enclosure... because

For this sort of thing where it’s an AC powered load, I would search Amazon for “current sensor switch”, which is a non-contact loop that you run the wire thru, that requires no direct connection to t

That’s what I thought I remember too, 0.0.0.0 did not work for me either. This was noteworthy to me because in most other programming environments, creating a socket on 0.0.0.0 means “bind the socket

What kind of output does the desired module need to have? Are we pushing to HDMI and displaying on a screen, or are we wanting to drive a narrow horizontal strip of LED’s with information crawling acr

Try using PacketSender -- a multiplatform testing app that lets you create and send packets (including UDP) for troubleshooting purposes like these. You should be able to poke hand-written packets int

Oh, right on, great to know. I either missed that possibility completely, or gave up before that became an option. My long term favored solution has just been to dedicate a Windows machine for running

The operative issue here is how you connect to the network. Also, WiFi and Ethernet have two different stories and two different solutions. For the purposes of this message, caution for similar termin

Are you sure the "crash" isn't simply the device going into sleep mode by design after a period of idle time? The built in slide show is a just a screen saver, during which, the device is counting an

Looking at the Elk M1 serial protocol document (does this apply to your system?) it looks like the “alarm memory” field (the thing I think you are describing) is read-only. There is a serial command f

This is what I would do (and did, regarding the Crestron interface to a different security panel, Interlogix NX-8E): 1. Set up something to log all of the traffic between the Crestron processor and th

I got a Garmin Lidar Lite V3 for $129 and have had fabulous results playing with it. Super sensitive, and centimeter accurate for the entire length of a garage. Walk down a long hall and it still sees

Hi Rick, I agree they work with non-UniFi switches. When multiple AP's broadcast the same SSID at the same site, do devices roam across them well, or does roaming break things -- is the question I'm r

On this UniFi issue, are UniFi AP's being used with a non-UniFi switch? I once had pervasive reproducible issues like this on Apple products simply disappear overnight by switching the UniFi AP's from

I would expect it to work poorly. Then again, someone could test this and prove me wrong. This is because I'm guessing that a common failure mechanism that applies to other WiFi products also applies

Having done some lower level WiFi development on integration of non-Crestron devices, I think I could safely share the following about what someone might mean by having separate SSID's so you can judg

You totally could do it exactly as you propose for debug purposes, especially if it's just for inspecting variables in real time and you don't care about packet loss. For me, I'm actually driving othe

Awesome, thank you for trying it and sharing your experience with the group — I really like Python. I also really like Crestron gear. Both do something specific really well and I’ve gotten lots of val
