IR command using Global Cache

zaiful

Hi Guys,

I been working with Global Cache. I got serial port working with AMX but not the IR port.
What ip port should i use to send the string, is it = port 4998

SEND_STRING dvGLOBALCACHE,"'Sendir,4:1,1,38000,1,1,225,274,20,130,20,130,20,130,20,130,20,54,20,54,
20,54,20,130,20,54,20,54,20,54,20,54,20,130,20,130,20,130,20,54,20,54,20,130,20,130,20,54,20,130,20,
54,20,130,20,54,20,130,20,54,20,54,20,130,20,54,20,130,20,54,20,130,20,54,20,130,20,54,20,130,20,54,20,130,20,54,20,54,20,130,20,

READ THE MANUAL...

Hi zaiful,

The answer for your question is in the MANUAL of the GC Model you want to control. I strongly advice you to read it.

Anyway,my reply is this:

1.The port for the IR commands is the SAME for all GC-100 models and it is 4998. This is also the MAIN
TCP port for communicating with the GC units.

2.The format of the IR command looks ok to me. If it is not working try to check/change the MODE of
the IR port of the GC unit. Like AMX controllers the IR ports of a GC unit can have different modes.

3.Once you have properly configured the IR port of the GC unit, try your IR command from the Test
Software that GC provides (iTest.exe). If you solve your problem using it, then copy the correct IR
command to the Netlinx code.

4.Try to use the module from AMX.

Please keep in mind that your question has nothing to do with AMX Hardware or Software. It has to do
ENTIRELY with troubleshooting a 3rd party manufacturer's product.

That been said i will not be available to help you further with this problem. I hope you understand.

Kostas.
