My first AMX program :)

adys

Hi all!

I just finished my first program
I get the input output leds on the NI300 to turn on when pushing some buttons on the TP (8400)

but I don't see the leds of the port ...

also when I connecting to the controller vis web browser I can see any devide on the devices list...

can someone have a look if my program is missing somthing crusial?

thanks a lot!

First and short view:


// my touch panel device
dvTP = 10001:1:0
// Denon DVD 2800 Device (controller:device:system)
dvDVD2800 = 5001:1:0

your Device is a RS 232 not a IR Interface
dvDVD2800 = 5001:9:0
thats your first IR Interface..

Don't forget: Load your *.IRL File to the Device 5001:9:0

trav

Well...

5001:1:0 is a serial port, not an IR port. So that probably won't be helping much.
Try changeing your port to

If it is a 2XXX series, ports 5-8
or if its a 4XXX/3XXX ports 9-16 are the IR ports

A 700's IR port is port 3 and a 900 is ports 2-4,

Don't forget to upload an IR file to the port first !
Good Luck

Oppsi

now it working!

thanks guys

Also don't use PULSE to send IR, it's too messy to manage when you need different times of pulse between devices controlled through IR and also doesn't manage queue in IR commands on a same port.

Always use SEND_COMMAND with SP, or XCH (Very useful for control of cable or sat boxes), and set up each port with a SEND_COMMAND CTON and CTOF in online of each IR Port
