If you are interested, I simplified the Index_Tracking function a little... It should accomplish the same thing and it's a little easier to troubleshoot:
Define_Function Index_Tracking(Integer nIndex) { Local_Var Integer nCount STACK_VAR INTEGER nValue; nValue = (nIndex - 1) * 8; For(nCount = 1; nCount < 9; nCount ++) { Send_Command dvTP ,"'^TXT-',Itoa(nMusic_VText_Fields[nCount]),',0,',(sChannels[nCount+nValue].Channel_Name)" sChannels[nCount].Channel_Number = sChannels[nCount+nValue].Channel_Number sChannels[nCount].Channel_Description = sChannels[nCount+nValue].Channel_Description } sDebug("' Line :: ',Itoa(__Line__),' nIndex = ',Itoa(nIndex)") }Let me know if this suggestion fixed it.
Jeff
Define_Function Index_Tracking(Integer nIndex) { Local_Var Integer nCount STACK_VAR INTEGER nValue; nValue = (nIndex - 1) * 8; For(nCount = 1; nCount < 9; nCount ++) { Send_Command dvTP ,"'^TXT-',Itoa(nMusic_VText_Fields[nCount]),',0,',(sChannels[nCount+nValue].Channel_Name)" } sDebug("' Line :: ',Itoa(__Line__),' nIndex = ',Itoa(nIndex)") }I'm not sure why you were doing the
sChannels[nCount].Channel_Number = sChannels[nCount+nValue].Channel_Number
sChannels[nCount].Channel_Description = sChannels[nCount+nValue].Channel_Description
but that was overwriting the channel information for the first 8 channels to be the current displayed channel info.... which is fine until you want to display the original 8 channels.
If for some reason, you need to track what is currently displayed, you need to create a new variable to hold this info.
Jeff
Now none of the information is changing when going to a new index.
That was why I was using the
sChannels[nCount].Channel_Number = sChannels[nCount+nValue].Channel_Number
sChannels[nCount].Channel_Description = sChannels[nCount+nValue].Channel_Description
Jeff.
Button_Event[dv_TP,nMusic_Selection_Buttons] { Push: { STACK_VAR Integer nValue; nButton = Get_Last(nMusic_Selection_Buttons) nValue = (nIndex - 1) * 8; Send_Command dv_TP ,"'^TXT-',Itoa(nMusic_VText_Description_Field[1]),',0,',(sChannels[nButton + nValue].Channel_Description)" On[dv_TP,nButton] GoTo_Channel(nButton) } }This will display the correct description.Also, change this just in case:
Button_Event[dv_TP,nMusic_Navigation_Buttons] { Push: { nButton = Get_Last(nMusic_Navigation_Buttons) Switch(nButton) { Case 1: { if(nIndex>1) nIndex = nIndex - 1 else nIndex = 1 Break } Case 2: { nIndex = 1 Break } Case 3: { if(nIndex <9) nIndex = nIndex + 1 else nIndex = 9 Break } } Wait 10 { Index_Tracking(nIndex) } } }As for the other stuff, it should display correctly based on what I'm looking at. Can you enable the internal diagnostics and let me see the output?
Jeff
Here is the diagnostics from the index change
Define_Function GoTo_Channel(Integer nButton) { STACK_VAR INTEGER nValue; nValue = (nIndex - 1) * 8; nNumber1 = Atoi(Left_String((sChannels[nButton+nValue].Channel_Number),1)) nNumber2 = Atoi(Mid_String((sChannels[nButton+nValue].Channel_Number),2,1)) nNumber3 = Atoi(Right_String((sChannels[nButton+nValue].Channel_Number),1)) sDebug("' Line :: ',Itoa(__Line__),' Numbers : ',Itoa(nNumber1),Itoa(nNumber2),Itoa(nNumber3)") }See if that clears it up.
Jeff
I have the description like this but I guess it is hitting the max length for the send_command. Any ideas on how to best grab the complete description and send it to the touch panel address?

Thanks got it working now
Thanks
From the TPD3 History:
But I can't find a command. Maybe something a setting in TPD3? I don't know.
I think the problem that we encounter with very long strings is that the panel can only accept x amount of characters in a particular command, not that a panel can't display that many characters. Whenever you send a TXT command, it erases what's in the panel's memory (I'm assuming), and replaces it with the text being sent. the BAT command probably keeps whats in there, and just adds to it. I don't know of a way for this to work in G3 though.
I'd call Tech Support for this one if I were you.
Has anyone found a work around for the old DMS keypads ( 5.16 firmware ) if sending variable text that you dont have to reselect the page to get the updated variable text?
We have a couple clients who are still using theirs. They upgraded the processor but kept all the old interface devices. It was hideous. No amount of begging or pleading would work.
I'm okay with using the older stuff. Like most art, the key is to work with the limitations and ask no more than what the thing can give. If you demand all the bells and whistles of the new stuff from the old, you're bound for trouble.
No doubt but these are systems that work, just the programmer that did most of these jobs is gone and didn't write the modules / code to be upgradeable over time so I am having to rewrite some of them
