All does the TH4 work with FLASH commands? i am using the DMTH4 V02 crestron
module and the user is saying there flash button doesn't work.
Are there settings on the clients phone system that i need to tell them to
program?
No, the server app is not written as a Windows Service - it's just an
ordinary app. Unfortunately, I never got around to making it a "tray"
app either. Up to this point I've assumed that it would it be run on a
dedicated PC with restricted logon, located in the equipment rack. What
is the setup there?

Hello, Has any used the LecNet2 Net server app?
Is there a way, other than adding to Start-up, to add the app as a service that
auto-starts on boot up? Is there a way of hiding or minimizing to tray this
application?
What I do not want is anyone play with this app once launched.
Thanks
Thanks for your response! After playing with it it finally ended up
working. The way I have it hooked up now is CCW to ground, CW to +5 and
wiper to the logic pin. They are going in pins 1,14,3 respectivley.

Two things to check
1) in software - make certain the logic input has been configured as
an ANALOG control (using the rear panel control tab). Remember to
save to the preset. Double check the limits on the Min gain and Gain
preset - for starters set OFF for min gain and 0 for gain preset
2) Make certain the pot is connected CCW to ground, CW to +5 and
wiper to the logic pin.

Hi Brian,
It would be very helpful if you could explain how you hooked the pot up. It
needs to be a
10Kohm linear taper variety. Which exact pins of the pot (top, bottom, wiper)
connect to
which pins on the remote control connector?
What option did you select in the drop down menu for that particular logic pin?
It should
be Analog Input RP Gain Control (or Output depending on what you are trying to
control).
Regards,
Howard

Great questions Roland!
To take advantage of the phantom mix mode in audio conferencing, you
will engage it in the DM mixer the DMTH4 is feeding, ie the DM1612,
DM84 etc.
First remember to put the mixer into phantom mix mode - for the
DM1612, DM1624 and DM812, that is the Configure choice on the top
banner, then click phantom mix mode.
There are two scenarios - the first is when the local microphones are
not amplified at all within the room. In this case, enable all the
microphones in the room for routing to the amplifiers but change the
crosspoint to Phantom mode. Make sure that the crosspoint is at or
about 0dB level. It MUST be engaged (green not grey).
Scenario two is local amplification of the microphones - the mics are
amplified in the room - mix minus perhaps. If any microphones are
OFF at the cross points for mix-minus, chenge them to enabled but in
phantom mode.
Make sense?
Gordon
I recently attended the Lectro school and as soon as I got
back ran into a situation that made me wish I had taken better notes. (really,
I’m not kidding) Gordon in particular, explained the benefits of
using Phantom mix mode when setting up the DMTH4. For the life of me I can’t
replicate the settings we discussed in class. Could anyone (Gordon) chime in on
the matrix settings I’m forgetting. Thanx in advance.

No, but this is an interesting way of handling it. Unfortunately,
there are 6 rooms involved, with a hallway between which must be
considered as room #7 for special events. 4 rooms adjoin (in a row) on
one side of the hall, and 2 on the other side. SOMETIMES, combining is
desired across the hall. The FSR-type of 'map-panel' with switches is
almost the only way to make the selection process easy to understand
for the user. I was actually thinking of parking a computer in the
rack and teaching the client how to actually control the DSP right in
the software. The client wishes to take any combination of the 4
wireless mics into any room they desire at any time to boot !
Did everyone receive the email messages from Steve Roth, Bob
Peticolas, s_burge and LectroHowie regarding room combining and mic
assignment? Steve's original message arrived in my email inbox, but
the replies did not. (?)
Have chatted with Howard about Steve's question and we think his
problem is that the wireless mic room assignments do not correspond to
the room combining presets. There are several ways to handle this, but
it depends upon how many rooms and mics, and the location of the
control point (or points) for the wireless mic assignments.
If you did NOT get the above mentioned replies via email, please email
me directly rather than post here. I'm not sure if anything is broken,
nor what we can do if it is.
bruce@...
This sounds like an ideal application for
a Lectrosonics DM1624 (or one of it’s brothers). A “router”
uses a “matrix” to do the routing. By using the presets on the
DM1624, the wireless mike(s) can be “routed” to any room or
combination of rooms at the push of a single button. Likewise, the rooms can
be combined in any combination with the wireless mikes assigned as needed. The
DM1624 has 24 presets which should be able to handle any combinations that you
can think of. Also, you can change the routing in real-time for something not
covered by the 24 presets and then cancel the changes the next time a preset is
activated.
A DM1624 has 16 inputs and 24 outputs.
Enough for most situations. If more are needed, they can be ganged to increase
the inputs/outputs and the presets can be carried from one to the other.

combining systems
I'm looking for ideas for handling sources like wrls
mics, which need
to be routed to ONE room only (at a time) in a combining system. If
rooms get combined with the room containing the wrls mic, of course
then they should hear it too. This is a little different than a
matrix, rather a 'router' of the source.
How many wireless mics do you have? In my combined room systems each
room has its' own microphones and they work in together when combined.
A system like this has three wireless mics.
Room A
Room B
Room C
Rooms A and B
Rooms B and C
Rooms A, B and C
Is this what you are trying to do?

It would be easier to provide a workable answer if you could tell us how many
rooms and
combinations there are, how many of these "wild" input sources there are, and
the type of
control system (AMX/Crestron, or hard wired switch panel).
If it's only a couple of sources, and 4 rooms, for example, it should be
possible to create a
little router panel with switches (set to toggle crosspoints). With a DM1624,
for example,
there are 22 input logic pins. Some would be needed (presumably) for preset
recalls.
Depending on the number of presets needed there might be enough input logic pins
left
over to route a few inputs in an ad hoc manner to the 4 rooms. For larger
systems it
would be necessary to use a control system like AMX or Crestron.
Example: If there are 4 rooms that combine and 5 combinations to recall
(depending on
the layout and the customer's expectations) you'd have 17 pins left over. That
could
provide for 4 "wild" sources routed to any of the 4 rooms (16 switches in 4 rows
of 4).
(But then you might not have enough pins left over for volume controls). If you
had 2 DM
mixers, the slave would have an additional 22 pins that could control the inputs
to that
mixer, (so you'd connect all the "wild" inputs to the slave), freeing all the
input logic pins
on the master for volume and preset control.
I guess the real answer (as Pat Brown likes to say) is: "it depends".

Howard Kaufman

There was a lot of discussion at the NAB show in the last day or two regarding the second audio channel in the camera slot. It appears that Sony is under a fair amount of pressure to enable channel 2, but no decision has been made as far as we know.
We have come up with a work around using an external jack that protrudes out one side of the top panel of the SR receiver, allowing external cables to connect both audio channels to the external inputs on the camera. It is not very pretty, but it works fine.
It would be best to post wireless questions on the other discussion group, since this one is focused more on installed sound system equipment.

The LM and its replacement, the LMa, can be powered from an external
DC source as long as you are careful about ground loops between the
power supply and audio sections. The FAQ listed below provides the
details.
To deal with this problem, a special isolated ground battery
eliminator is offered – the ISO9VOLT.
http://www.lectrosonics.com/catalogs/UniversalCatalogPages/BattElims.htm
Also inquired with our service manager to see what experience he may
have had with this. Here is his reply:
<<I have seen a few of these unit come in for repair over the years.
If you drill a hole in the battery door of the LM be sure to remove
the printed circuit board assembly prior to doing so to keep the metal
fillings from causing malfunction. We also have a cable assembly with
a 12 volt plug that is straight (Lectrosonics part # 21425) that will
give more penetration. Beware of the potential for ground loops, see
FAQ # 69.
http://www.lectrosonics.com/faq/faq1byref.php?id=69
I do recommend using the ISO9VOLT with LM.>>

There is no replacement door for the LM because of its spring-loaded
mounting arrangement. It is not easy to change, so you would have to
drill a hole in the door yourself.
For wireless discussions, it would be better if you use the other

If you arrange for more than one POTS (that stands for "Plain Old Telephone Service) line at the rack you can use several TH4's - one for each line. That may take more work though than setting up a conference call with a "bridging" service.

Thanks. I knew there were videoconference bridges, but I didn't know
about phone bridges. I'll see if they have one. Otherwise I'll look
into services. I appreciate the help.
