RS232 in Cisco LCD 42

guys,
My DMS consist of DMM 5.2.x, DMP 4400 and cisco LCD 42. I want to control LCD centrally from my DMM, so i do step to activate "RS 232 for cisco LCD 42" based on this
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/video/digital_media_systems/5_x/5_2/dmm/user/guide/dmp/preso-sys.html#wp2267596
but, it doesn't success.
Do you have any idea how to activate RS232 in Cisco LCD ?
Best Regards,
Rizal Ferdiyan

Following on the case, I am updating this thread for future reference.
For 42" and 47" monitors the command set is different to what was used above.
We used the process below to power off the monitor:
1-----
Digital Signs > Digital Media Players > Advanced Tasks. > System Tasks
Use the Name field to enter a unique name for your new application, such as LCD_MANAGE_POLL_TURN_ON.
b. Choose Set from the Request Type list.
c. Enter the necessary command in hexadecimal.
Use the Request field to enter exactly this hexadecimal string:
rs232.tx_hex=64612030302030310D
2-----
Deploy the System Task event called "RS-232: Control supported, non-DMTech displays"
3-----
Create new tasks
check out 42" and 47" NPI slides
Display On
rs232.tx_hex=6B612030302030310D
Display Off
rs232.tx_hex=6B612030302030300D
Mute On
rs232.tx_hex=6B652030302030300D
Mute Off
rs232.tx_hex=6B652030302030310D

DMP 4400G RS 232 connection with Cisco LCD 100 PRO 40N

Hi everyone,
I know that this question was kinda asked before, but I still have trouble setting the DMM to control the Cisco LCD 100 PRO 40N (Samsung) through the DMP RS 232 connection!
I have searched and read every post on this forum, tried everything ("Samsung_MDC_RS232_Protocol_Ver-21.pdf" & rs232.tx_hex= ) but with no avail.
We have DMS VmWare Demo (Signs&Cast 5.2, Show and Share 5.2) and 4400G with 5.2 firmware.
Also, I've connected the Serial RS232 9-Pin Female to Female that came with the TV onto the DMP 4400G and into the TV RS232 IN port, configured the DMP Display Control in the Advance Task tab as you can see from the attach picture, and set the TV type to Cisco 40N and Power ON and another task for Display OFF. What am I doing wrong here!?
Any input will be greatly appriciated!

With DMS 5.2, this pretty straight forward as your JPEG attachment shows.
Take a look at the documentation...
There may have been some steps you missed...
For 5.1 & 5.2....

* Connect RS-232 cable to the DMP and the LCD.
I believe either RS-232 port should work for the LCD. I thought the FRONT port (closet to front of TV)
was an IN\OUT port. And the BACK port was just an IN port. I used the BACK port for my testing.
* next, you NEED to ENABLE ON RS-232 controls on the DMP first. From the DMM, issue the
"Advanced Task--> System Task --> RS-232: Control Supported, non-DMTech displays" for the DMP(s)
in question. By default, RS-232 controls are disabled.
* Create 2 new System Tasks in the Advanced Tasks Tab.
Turn ON - Cisco LCD = rs232.tx_hex=aa11fe010111
Turn OFF - Cisco LCD = rs232.tx_hex=aa11fe010010
* Once RS-232 Control is Enabled & the New System Tasks are created, You can now issue the LCD Turn On & Off
tasks from the DMM-DSM DMP Manager.
Note: You can combine RS-232 commands using the "Control TV" tool on the DMP Manager List Zone. The "Control TV"
is designated by the TV with Antenna Icons in the DMP List Tool bar.

DMP 4400G not displaying content on Cisco LCD 110L PRO 47

All,
I have a DMP 4400G connected to a Cisco LCD via HDMI. The DMP is controlled through a DMM (5.2.3). The IP info displays on the screen when I tell it to, but I am having trouble displaying content.
I have tried the following:
Pointing the DMP to URL on the DMP.
Pushing a presentation from the DMM to the DMP.
Pushing a "go to url" from the DMP.
The DMM says that the task was submitted, but nothing displays on the DMP.
Any thoughts?

Thanks for the input Joe. The I was able to play the file straight from the DMP, as well as another mpeg2 file that I loaded on there. I didn't get any audio from the file though...
My other issues seem to be specifically with the browser. If I try to play a URL (media plane or browser plane) FROM the DMP, or try to play a playlist from the DMM, I get a "browser_play_failure" error in the syslog output.

Cisco LCD-110Q-PRO-55 Remote Code

I have the above monitor in a commercial environment and in a recent move we lost remote and manual. I have searched as much as I can via Cisco website and the net to find a manual to download or a remote control model but no luck. Cisco seems to have the later model TV manuals available online but not this model.
Via the original box we still have it was manufatured by Tech-Giant and then distributed by Quanta Displays Inc, neither of those companies have responded to me and probably dont care. I purchased a generic remote to tried the scan codes but no luck in finding codes to operate TV.
Would appreciate anyone helping to find a manual and codes to enter on remote or where to find a remote.
Cheers

JD, the LCD-110Q-PRO55 is a Cisco monitor so if I wanted to contact the manufacturer of the display I would have to do it through TAC since they are the support arm of the manufacturer.
I know all about other manufacturers and the fact that some use ascii and some use hex. I can successfully control Samsung, Panasonic, Clarity, NEC and more. Most of these companies make it easy to get the codes right from the website but Cisco is either refusing to or simply doesn't know any better.
BTW, If I could have found the codes via google, I wouldn't have posted here.

RS-232 Troubleshooting
======================
- Make sure the RS-232 cable has the correct pin out.
- Make sure RS-232 is enabled on the DMP.
- Perform the following to make sure the cable is
correct and the DMP is sending RS-232 commands:
1. Connect RS-232 from the DMP to a PC
2. Open HyperTerminal and set RS-232 settings from
   previous slide
3. Send hex commands from the DMP though DMM-DSM
4. You should see the hex command in your HyperTerminal
After verifying DMP is sending the RS-232 command,
please, check the following:
1. The RS-232 is connected to the "IN" port and not the "OUT"
   port.
2. Make sure monitor ID is set correct and the ID matches the
   ID in the hex command.
3. If no ID is set, use FE, for all monitors, as the monitor ID in
   the hex command
4. Double check the command and the check sum value.
   * Make sure each field has 2 digits

LCD 100 PRO 40N error "Check Cooling System"

At our school, we have a Cisco LCD 100 PRO 40N that now shows a message on the screen that states "Check Cooling System". I have not been able to find any information or documentation on how to do this or how to clear the message. This message is coming for the LCD, not from the DMP it is connected to. Does anyone have any information that might help?

Hello James,
"Check Cooling System" message is displayed on the screen when there is an issue with the cooling fan. Couple of things you can do proactively are check for ventilation issues on the back of the LCD screen. Switch it off for around 5-10 minutes and turn it back on. If the issue persists, open a Cisco TAC case to get an RMA.
Thanks,
Sagar Dhanrale

DMP 4400

I would like to know if the 4400 can control a television? Having the ability to change iputs, turn on/off from the user interface. So there is no need to go to the TV and make that adjustment. I see that there is an IR output that goes from the 4400 to the TV.

No there is no converter you can use. In order to take advantage of this feature you must be using commercial or professional grade LCDs with RS232 Ports for the transfer of those hexidecial codes that control Display functions. The control of the LCDs is actually an application function of the DMM but the commands are transfered to the display through the DMP. NEC and Cisco LCDs are native but other makes and models can be prorammed if you know the hex codes for the display.
I hope this helps.
Cheers

RS232 Serial commands for Cisco 32" LCDs

Are the serial commands for power on/off for the Cisco 32" LCDs different than the 40" and 52" monitors?
The "rs232.tx_hex=aa11fe010111" for power on and "rs232.tx_hex=aa11fe010010" work fine on the 40"s but the 32"s do not respond to these same commands.
I know the 40" and 52" LCDs are Samsung. The 32"s appear to be LG so I would suspect the serial commands would be different as well.
I have been unable to find any documentation for the 32"s.
Thanks in advance

Doug,
Have you tried using the Control TV icon in the DMP Manager?
You can power on and off the Cisco 30" from here along with
other rs232 control commands.
You also could use wireshark to sniff the wire to
see what codes the DMM are sending the DMP.
Cisco 32"\LG - RS232.Control
To use the RS232 commands on the DMP the serial port must be set to ON and
be pointed at the /dev/ttyS1 device.
To check this create a System Task to check your settings using Task 5
below. If your serial port is anything other than /dev/ttyS1 use Task 1
to set it correctly.
TASKS
=====
1. Create a system task under application
use type "set"
name it "RS232 ON"
init.startService_rs232=yes&rs232.device=/dev/ttyS1&mib.save=1&mng.reboot=1
2. Create system task "RS232 OFF"
use type "set"
init.startService_rs232=no&rs232.device=/dev/ttyS1&mib.save=1&mng.reboot=1
3. Create system task "Cisco 32N LCD ON"
use type "set"
rs232.tx_hex=6B612030312030310D
4. Create system task "Cisco 32N LCD OFF"
use type "set"
rs232.tx_hex=6B612030312030300D
5. Check DMP RS232 Settings (This setting will allow you to check the RS232
settings)
use type "get"

Hi all. Could anyone tell me how to Power Off & Power On the CISCO 52"LCD controls using RS232 to Play in Future

Hi,
Im working in Cisco DMS & IPTV.
Im facing a problem with 4400 DMP & 5.2.2 DMM.
I want to control the CISCO 52inch LCD's using the 4400G DMP. I am able to power off,on the LCDs remotely through the DMM. Also I am able to Schedule to power off & power on the LCD for short number of days like for 3 or 4 days.
but i cannot schedule to play in future for a month.
My requirement is as follows: I want to turn off the LCD screen during the off time in my customers office. That is I want to schedule the screen to turn ON from 7 am to 6 pm. i want to turn off my lcd screens from 6pm to 6am. i want to schedule this for 1 or 2 months long in a single shot.
kindly reply as early as possible.

Hello Peter,
I'm always eager to help as i get helped as well!
For the first part of your question: I cant see a reason why the scheduling fails for more that 4-5 days! I had it running for our customer on a daily basis without any issues.Make sure that you scheduled tasks dont conflict with other (e.gthat you may have configured when testing)
For the second part: What i did was the following: Let's consider that the working days are Mon-Friday:
So: In scheduling, i selected Monday, created two events (for LCDs on & off) and set both of them to repeat every week. I repeated this for Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday and finally Friday. In this way, i was able to configure the dmps for the working days only.
Also, what i also added in the scheduling was an extra event ( preferably set before turning on the lcds ), an advacned task which Saves&Reboots the dmps. In this way the 4400s start fresh everyday

CISCO CHS DVR dropping sound to LCD TV

I have a CISCO CHS 435HDC DVR hooked up to a 32" Emerson LCD TV. Periodically the sound will stop coming out of the set...and we have to turn the TV off then On. The installer mentioned something about "HDMI" synching problems with the receivers and that unplugging/replugging the HDMI cable would fix it. (That does work but we found that turning the TV off/on forces the "resych" and the volume returns.
Is there a DVR SW patch for this intermittant sound loss.?

The boxes all have the latest software. You will want to check with your TV manufacturer. Most newer TV's come with updatable firmwares to fix problems such as these. Since every TV is different in this procedure you would need to contact their helpdesk.

Which RS232 converter recommended for cisco console

hi,
which RS232 converter cable is the recomanded for cisco console?
i used many converters and getting blue screen error for my windows 7 Enterprise
sometimes port not working as well!
Any assistance would be most appreciated. Thanks.

There are several good options. Personally I use a USB-Serial converter from TRENDnet purchased at amazon.com for US$9.99:
     http://www.amazon.com/TRENDnet-RS-232-Serial-Converter-TU-S9/dp/B0007T27H8
I use it on conjunction with the standard Cisco RJ-45-DB-9 serial console cables that come with every router and switch. Since I'm regularly unpacking new ones, they're easily replaced when the little tab on he RJ-45 breaks off (the most common failure). The same USB-DB-9 serial adapter has held up under regular use for about 5 years.
Other threads have also reported good luck with other vendors:

RS232 control of a Samsung ME55A

I am trying to setup RS232 control over a new ME55A Samsung display. I have tried every combination of cabling and codes I can come up with but the display does not respond. The unique thing about this setup is the display uses a mini 3.5 jack to DB9 for it's RS232C connection. Also the TV documentation keeps mentioning it's MDC program for remote controlling it when referencing RS232. Is this TV not capable of basic RS232 control? Am I missing something else?
Here is the example of how to com e up with the code (example is actually the code I need/use too):
