Need RS485 serial support for Marshall CV350 camera control #1492

Open ronwaller1 opened 1 month ago

ronwaller1 commented 1 month ago

I have 2 Marshall CV350 cameras and use the serial connection for camera control using the Marshall camera control app. I would like to be able to integrate camera functions on may Companion to be able to control basic camera functions. Zoom, Focus White balance Shutter speed, and gain.

I currently have basic live production features of VMix on companion and would like one controller for all my live production functions.

I saw a suggestion on the forum to use the generic module I was unable to find a place to send the required code in %hh format.

Do you have a USB to RS485 adapter? It is possible to use the generic-tcp-serial module to bridge the serial port to TCP. Others have had luck using the existing VISCA modules included in Companion with the TCP to serial bridge module.

See this thread for more discussion: https://github.com/bitfocus/companion-module-requests/issues/405

I have seen that thread. It does not appear the original commenter ever got it working. The ones that seem to be successful are using raspberry pi running linux. I would like to have this running on my video workstation running windows 10 pro. It may be a port conflict, browser, or firewall issue. I have tried with IP 127.0.0.1 with default port of 32100. Also port 32200.

Did you add the generic-tcp-serial module connection to Companion? Until you do that, nothing is listening to port 32100.

See Screen snips...

tcp-udp is not needed. How is the tsp module set up?
