Support for Barco FLM Projectors #918

Open Git4DaveH opened 2 years ago

Git4DaveH commented 2 years ago

Looking add TCP Control of Barco FLM Series Projectors.

Pause: \xFE\x00\x23\x42\x00\x65\xFF

Un Pause: \xFE\x00\x22\x42\x00\x64\xFF

Lamp ON \xFE\x00\x00\x03\x02\x76\x1a\x01\x96\xFF

Lamp OFF \xFE\x00\x00\x03\x02\x76\x1a\x00\x95\xFF

I've tried inputting these strings as % but not having luck...Any assistance would be SO very appreciated!!!

How are you entering the strings? Pause would be %FE%00%23%42%00%65%FF with End Character set to None

Git4DaveH commented 2 years ago

I tested this exact format - changing the "\x" for% with no success. Using the generic tcp-udp connection. IP Address and Port are both correct.

I'm scratching my head. Confirmed that the original strings work from Media Server, so I know the network is good and the strings, IP and Ports are correct...

Am I using the wrong Connection?

Thanks for your help!!!

How is your tcp-udp module set up? Don't forget to click Save.

Git4DaveH commented 2 years ago

IP Address is set for the specific projector as well as port. I have TCP selected not UDP.

I'm 99% sure I clicked save and tested - but I'll confirm... the only other thing I could think of is if it wants to use an end Character instead of the %FF...? I don't see why that would make a difference.

I'm not going to be in front of this projector for a few days - do you know of a test tool/software that could sit on another computer and listen for the correct command?

Thanks SO much for your help so far!!!

The %FF is part of the command. Set end character to 'None'

Those command strings are in the Barco HDX,HDF Projector module. You may want to try that module.
