How to read speed dials from BLU-102

Have a BLU-102, and want to program my control system to retrieve the speed dial names stored in the DSP.

The API documentation says this, but little else, about the state variables:
Speed Dial #1
Number Part 1 – 200
Number Part 2 – 201
Number Part 3 – 202
Number Part 4 – 203
Store – 204
Recall – 205
Name – 206

Extrapolating from other mechanisms I understand, I can guess that storing a number would be like dialing. Populate the parts 1-4 then set Store to 1 (then maybe back to 0).

But it's not as clear, and I haven't been able to guess how to recall either the name or the number. Can anyone shed light on this?

  • It is not possible to retrieve the Speed Dial Name from a third party device. It is not a parameter that you can subscribe to.

    It is possible to retrieve the Speed Dial Number. It is broken up into four parts. First thing is to convert the Part1,2,3,4 numbers into Hex, then things become clear.

    When no numbers are entered, you get this:
    Part 1 FFFF FFFF
    Part 2 FFFF FFFF
    Part 3 FFFF FFFF
    Part 4 FFFF FFFF

    When you enter 1,2,3, you get this:
    Part 1 FFFF F123
    Part 2 FFFF FFFF
    Part 3 FFFF FFFF
    Part 4 FFFF FFFF
    telnumber_2.png\

    When you enter 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 you get this:
    Part 1 F123 4567
    Part 2 FFFF FFFF
    Part 3 FFFF FFFF
    Part 4 FFFF FFFF

    As you keep entering numbers, then Part 1 carries on into Part 2. So if you enter 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 you get this:
    Part 1 2345 6789
    Part 2 FFFF FFF1
    Part 3 FFFF FFFF
    Part 4 FFFF FFFF
    Notice that the 1 has moved to Part 2.

    If we continue to enter numbers then it continues. So if I enter 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 you get this:
    Part 1 2345 6789
    Part 2 4567 8901
    Part 3 FFFF F123
    Part 4 FFFF FFFF

    So you can enter up to 32 digits. If I enter 1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1 (32 times) then you get this:
    Part 1 1111 1111
    Part 2 1111 1111
    Part 3 1111 1111
    Part 4 1111 1111

    Numbers with their Hex equivalent:
    Key 0 = 0 (hex)
    Key 1 = 1
    Key 2 = 2
    Key 3 = 3
    Key 4 = 4
    Key 5 = 5
    Key 6 = 6
    Key 7 = 7
    Key 8 = 8
    Key 9 = 9
    Key # = A
    Key * = B
    Key , = C
    Key + = D
    Key Clear = E
    Key Del = F
  • well that is unfortunate that the name cannot be retrieved.

    Do you know the purpose of the \"name\" state variable in each speed dial?
  • The Speed Dial names are not state variables. In a similar way to Signal Names, they do not exist in the BLU device. They only exist in London Architect. This is why you cannot subscribe to them.

    Yes, that true, I used the same option when I was problem.
