IP CONTROL OF NEC X461UN HELP?

Jonathondw

Hello everyone!

Has anyone controlled these NEC X461UN devices via IP??

The units work with PD Comm Tools not problem but as soon as connect to the units with and IP connection thur AMX the unit does not respond to any commands.

I send the command to the TV but I get no response back from the TV and no change to the TV via the command, my connection stats of the IP connection show good and connected but no go on the communications. I have tried to control teh monitor via the ID for 1 monitor and the id to control all monitors and nothing responds.

I am controlling around 120 other monitors via IP on this same project but those are LG and Sharp monitors these NEC ones are a pain.

Any help or ideas would be great!

Thanks for your help in advance.

Jon

Perhaps you should run Wire Shark on the PC with the control software and see what commands are being sent and what is being responded to. That might give you a clue.

Detailed below is a pretty crude example of turning the monitor on and off, this works as i used to test the basic functions before i incoporated my module.
