Global Cache iTach/GC-100

[Shakey]

    I saw on the RTI forum that this driver is done except for the IR till RTI updates the firmware to take longer character strings. How does the serial port function? I imagine it works like the 2-way strings driver does but I'm not sure.  Any way to test it or buy it now?

Working on a tool to compress the IR commands so they can be used despite the 128 char limitation.

Happy to announce this driver has finally been released!

This driver allows you to extend the functionality of your RTI system using the Global Cache IP based hardware.

The driver implements the full range of functionality and has been tested on both the GC-100 and iTach range of products.

Features:

• Relay control and feedback.
• Serial port configuration (baud/flow control/parity).
• Serial port sending and receiving.
• Discrete I/O feedback.
• Infrared sending/port configuration.
• System information (version, network configuration, config lock status).
• Blink the power LED of GC-100 units.

   

With this driver you can add remote relays, inputs, serial ports and infrared transmitters over IP (with the appropriate GC hardware).

By including a special tool for compressing IR HEX codes we have even been able to get around the 128 character limit impossed by ID!

Hi All,

I've just pushed an update (version 2.0) to the web store.  It addresses an issue with a small number of IR codes.  If you already have a license code, the update is free.

Cheers,
Matt.
