Re: Re: cbus Wiser config agony

Hi Paul,

I was in the same boat as you for a week or so.

Have you check the project details in piced, make sure they match the
wiser.

Can you connect via wireless, as i had a few problem connecting over lan,
but wireless coonected and up load fine.

Ben

Can I ask you for a little help with setup please? - cos I'm about to throw
myself under a bus in frustration... - it's all down to the *tortuous* IP
re-addressing palaver...

In essence, as I want to use "option B" connection model, I've
readdressed
my units as follows:

Readdressed Wiser router to 192.168.145.245/24 (via wiser's web admin UI)
Readdressed the CNI unit to 192.168.145.246/24 (vie CBUS IP utility)

I've confirmed both of these, and I can connect to both units on these
addresses (I've used toolkit for several hours connected to the CNI IP)

As is expected, according to the Wiser's UI, it still believes the CNI is
on
the original default addres of 2.2, so I understand I need to upload a
PICED
project to update that... - I Seem utterly unable to get this last part to
work... - PICED just constantly fails/refuses to connect... so I can't
upload the project to update it's knowledge onf the CNI, so I cannot access
the wiser UI, not can I connect to the CNI through wiser, as I believe I'm
supposed to be able to...

I've been at this for almost the whole of this weekend, - SWMBO isn't best
pleased - says I'm neglecting her on valentine's day... :-( - I'm fed up,
and I just want it to work... I *believe* I've done everything specified in
the instructions, but either I've got a duffer, (which I doubt), or there's
still some other (presumably un or poorly documented) config setting
somewhere that I haven't set...

TIA for any pointers...

Paul G.

Hi Kevin, and UKHA members,

This is my first post to the list. I work on various bits of the Wiser
software, but my comments here are completely my own and aren't on behalf
of
the company so don't assume anything I say is official.

Yes, you are correct. The current Wiser supports up to 6 simultaneously
connected devices. These devices each run an independent Wiser user
interface application. That could mean 6 iPhones or any mix of constantly
connected or sporadically connected Media Centers, iPhones, PCs/laptops,
and
a partridge and a pear tree. You get the idea. Currently, the list of
devices with released applications is:
- iPhone/iTouch (released yesterday)
- Microsoft Media Centre (Vista only at the moment)
- any device capable of running Adobe Flash 9 and above (this means almost
any PC or Intel/AMD/x86 CPU based platform). Linux, Windows, MacOS, etc
through browser plugins or native apps. This category tends to be the big
one as it includes web tablets, in-wall stuff, deskmount stuff and others.
- devices with FlashLite 3.0 with XML support. This covers devices like
Nokia Symbian phones. N95 works. I think some of the others which have
touchscreens aren't quite fully supported yet.
- other devices with Adobe Flash capabilities. Turns out Playstation 3
works
fine as well as a user interface for Wiser.

> sure the CNI will be single owner only. We'll see once someone has
one.

Indeed. When you want to configure or commission something, you connect
toolkit to the Wiser's IP address (or external DNS name/etc if you've
enabled remote programming and dyndns/etc) and it will pass that
communication through to its CNI. In that mode, that is, the mode of
toolkit
programming, naturally, you won't be able to use any of the Wiser's user
interfaces. Once you disconnect toolkit, the user interfaces reconnect and
are able to share access to the Wiser as before.

By the way, there's a youtube video of the Wiser iphone app here,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHsjTdTPVnU
. Some Russian guys have also
posted this video of an interesting setup,
http://rutube.ru/tracks/2288889.html
(I don't know why but I had to click
past the initial clip of something else before I could see the actual
video)
showing Wiser with media centre, various screens, logic integration, email
and such things. Good luck and please do provide feedback. Post videos of
your setups if you can. We do enjoy watching.
