Got this tidbit of information from NetStreams today while working with someone on my IRLinX reliability issues. It is possible to switch on a flag that provides additional output tracing information between the IRLinX and the host SpeakerLinX.
First, use the socket generic tool to connect to the host SpeakerLinX. Then send the following command to the SpeakerLinX:
#DEBUG SERCOM A5
I haven’t had a chance to test it yet, but I’ve been told that this flips on some extended tracing. To turn the extended tracing off, send:
#DEBUG SERCOM 0
As a side note, it appears that the problems I’ve experienced controlling Digi from my T4 are related to noise that’s produced by the RP-6 when trigger commands are sent from the T4 to the RP-6 using RF instead of IR. NetStreams is working on a fix to filter out the extra noise. I hear they’re also working on filtering out extra signals from certain plasma displays. I hope these changes make it to a firmware update soon.
