Lighting System

mkleynhans · August 2014

Hi guys,
I have written some pretty basic code to control an iLight lighting system and am worried about the feedback for the lighting buttons. Its all running in mainline and have around 12 panels (9x MSD1001i's and 3 iPad Minis) on the system. I happened to be watching as one of the iPads came online and the button updates seemed to take a long time in the events and diagnostics...

Anyway, mainline code below, do you think this is too much for within Define_Program? ... would a wait 5 { ....enclose the current code.... } help??

I certainly wouldn't do it this way. Mainline is for asynchronous events. Like a timed event, something that happens at noon every day for instance. I don't see the point of a wait in mainline, since that's kind of a "hurry up and wait" situation. Why check feedback incessantly, but then only every half second?

You are going to be better off doing this in events according to the feedback you get. What I typically do is store the state of the lights, and then update the panel when the user clicks on the lighting page using the stored values. What you are doing might work, but it will slow down everything, so it will operate like a C4 system.

Thanks for the feedback Paul, I was worried about so much feedback in mainline after reading elsewhere that this is bad practice to do it like this. It is working but I want to improve it.

I have been stuck on what to do though. I am thinking of trying to write a module (havent done one before) and use channels for feedback rather. The only thing is that I believe that I can only have up to 255 channels per virtual device so how would you guys go about this?
There are about 65 areas and I am hoping to provide feedback on whether the lights are on or off + which scene is selected on the actual lighting page for the zone... circa 325 channels needed....

I'm not sure why you need to worry about virtual channel counts it should be fine, and there are functions to set extra channels, levels, etc should you need more. I'm not familiar with the iLight lighting system, but presumably it sends feedback about the status of loads. You parse the feedback regarding which load was triggered and its state and store it in your program somehow, so your program reflects the state of the lighting system at all times.

Then when a user flips to the lighting page, you turn on the appropriate channels on the actual TP not a virtual device, that reflects the light status, and that should do it. Some people will use a different channel for each button using lots of channels, which works, but I typically only use a few buttons, usually the number of buttons on the largest physical keypad, and update the page dynamically with the button label and state, reusing the channels. This pushes most of the work to the code, rather than the touch panel, which is my preference.

Sometimes you have to get creative depending on the scenario. If a user needs access to many lighting buttons at the same time, you have no choice but to use lots of channels/buttons. Each situation is different. I would certainly write a module for this type of thing, and I use a different TP port for lighting as well so for lighting I'll have a TP defined like 10001:3:1 and use port 3 for lighting so feedback doesn't get crossed up with other buttons using the same channel numbers. If you write a module and it doesn't work then post it and folks can help you with it.

Thanks again Paul. Yep, we have 10" panels showing a floor plan which has icons for the lighting (this is where I feedback the on / off status ) then if you touch the lightbulb icon for that zone it gives you the facility to control that zone with buttons for on, off, Scene 1 through to scene 4.. This all working by me parsing the serial strings for the scenes etc. but it's now just a matter of finding the most efficient way of doing this...
I have started writing a module that has the tp's button events sending commands to a vdv which then sends the strings to the dv. For feedback I have the dv strings coming in and currently updating an area var with 0 ... 4 but don't know the best way to handle this info now... Should I rather turn on channels on the tp straight away with this info?

You could, although my preference is to store the state of the lighting system in memory first, and then update panels. Should a panel go offline, you can easily update it with the proper states instead of waiting for the next round of feedback. So store the data in a structure or array or some other data structure, and update the panels.

Thanks Paul, will give it a try. I really appreciate the suggestions.
