Module Request - BSS DSP

[Dwhite2023]

I'm currently controlling a BSS DSP via a generic module.

It would be great if there was a proper module.

This is the specific product I have: https://bssaudio.com/en/products/blu-100

I know very little about how to program for this but I think most of the information you'll need is in documents that can be found at that link

How do you control it using a generic module?

When the device was installed it was set up to be operated by a separate control system (specifically frontrow CB-6000) which sends a string of hex code. I simply pulled the hex code out of the frontrow and sent it from companion instead.

I did find the documentation the install tech used to program it at the bottom of the page i linked in the initial request:

Additionally, I don't know if these are helpfule but it does have premade Crestron and AMX modules:

Hello Sir,

I would like to do the samthing as-well. Do you have any sample can share with me for BSS with generic module?

[Dwhite2023]

Hi Alex,

I can tell you what I did, but it might not be too helpful.

Its in an event space at the organisation I work for which has a fairly limited Front Row control system that lets general staff do simple tasks without my help, and when I wanted to use companion I just copied the hex strings out of that system into companion and sent them with the 'generic tcp/udp' module. The only trick to it beyond that is you need to insert '%' signs in between each pair of characters in the string for companion to send it as hex. I can't do anything more complicated than someone else programmed for me cause I don't have the access to the DSP.

What other documentation is this missing? I have some blu-120's, blu-806da's and blu-da's that i would love to interact with and can't seem to get the generic tcp module to work.

Hi. I have been developing a module for BSS Soundweb London devices, which is ready for Beta testing. I will generate a release very soon that can be downloaded and used within Companion. In the meantime, you may of course build the package yourself.

BSS Soundweb London Control for Companion v3

[EDIT] - Please now find the module at: bitfocus/companion-module-bss-soundweb

Further to the above, the module is now available at: bitfocus/companion-module-bss-soundweb

@AndyFug Just started using it today. Once I figured out how it all works with hex and decimals it works great! Thanks for your hard work!!

This issue should/can be closed now
