"Generic" As in any 232 device that transmits status will then be able to be displayed on the Nevos screen or used in programming variables. Currently only the pre-configured 232 devices that ship with studio pro support 2 way communication.

I wouldn't even need it to display anything. If we could just use queries & responses in IF/THEN statements, that'd add a lot of flexibility to the programming.

Hi,

OK.
Question 1.
NSP 3.0 runs on 32 and 64-bit versions of XP, Vista and Win7.

Question 2.
YES. !
There is a new widgets feature that will allow you write full 2way drivers.
The current version (2.0) already allows for the if/then that you are asking about. Although it is limited by a single match. Widgets will allow for much greater flexibility.

Bonus info...
You will be able to resize buttons.
You can import IR and IP commands just as you import RS232 commands currently.

Hi D,

Do you know if they have added a Zoom In and Out for the Touchscreen Area?


Cheers
Jason

Edit.
Can you write multiple lines of Text to a Button without using a Text Label?

sydinstaller,

Thanks so much for the information. I'm pretty excited about this update, and really excited about finally being able to run NSP on my laptop!! :)

Hi Jason,

Unfortunatly that is a no on both questions.

There was a reason why they didn't do the mulit line text on a butoon but I can't remember why. You can however nudge the text. I.E. If you want to left justify the text but it goes over the edge of the button you can now nudge it right (or any direction) say 10pix.

As for the Zoom. It is available in the widget area. I will put in a request for the text and zoom features for later releases.
I would suggest that everyone puts in a request if they want a feature. Posting here is great but I do know that Nevo does not frequent the forums (they do look but not often).

I hope I haven't misunderstood this all long. :( What I meant wasn't using feedback from the various Nevo sensors in conditional statements, but specifically the ability to create macros that send queries directly to RS-232 controlled devices, and use the responses in IF/THEN statements.

Well I'll be. ;)

If that's the case, could I use a status query in place of, say, a voltage sensor? Example using a very common scenario: I want a macro to know whether the TV is already powered on when executing an "activity" macro, so as to bypass the long delay when when possible. Could I query INPUT status, for example, and IF there's a defined response the macro skips the delay, if there's no response, THEN the macro executes the delay before proceeding? (all devices using serial control)

Correct.

Just remember you can only match one responce per if/then.

As far as enhancements go, can anyone elaborate on the global variable/flag feature? Will you be able to set a bolean flag in the programming and check and perform a process based on that flag?

For example this would be on a ZONE 2 button
Page Jump to ZONE 2
set flag ZONE2 = Y

Then, on the home button:

If ZONE2=Y then
page jump to zone2 page
Else
page jump to main zone page

Is this what is meant? Would be cool....

Jimmy,

I am 95% sure you can do this.

I didn't get much time at the show but from what I saw I would say this should be no prob.

Did anyone else see it at ISE?

I am very excited to see these new innovations in the software. If they translate into what it's being described at I will certainly use Nevo in many more jobs. Right now I am not using it as often as I should be.

Someone else has posted a link to an 'Internal Use Only' Alpha Release of Nevo Studio Pro 3 here for anyone that's interested:

One of Nevo's real strong suits is that, when they release their updates, they're "street-ready." They work. So why not just wait until Nevo makes the final release available?  Circulating pre-release versions doesn't really help their development process.  Just my take. :)
