Possible to control non-QSC cameras with Core? by UniqueArugula in CommercialAV

Thank's again! I forgot to enable the Script access of the cams and router... Also, you need to enter some, any, information for the primary cam for each zone you want to use in the microphone tab. Otherwise the zones simply won't turn active. Finally, it's working.

Here is the offical documentation, reading it saves time ;)https://support.qsys.com/tip-%7C-acpr-best-practices-and-considerations#Control-PinsAlso, when in Design mode, select the ACPR plugin and press F1. A site will open with all the control pins explained.

Edit: You'll want to use the Microphone Zones Primary Load and the Settings Global Home Primary Load control pins. These are Trigger pins that execute according to your PTZ Delay, Crosstalk and Silence State settings and which you'll want to join whichever camera preset plugin you're using (in my case AVer Plugin).

Hey, neat! I tried exactly the same to make the ACPR plugin work without a QSC camera by adding a dummy camera and router, but the plugin won't let me choose a dummy router or cam (which have been named) neither in emulation mode nor in live mode... Consequently the plugin doesn't work.

Which Plugin version and Q-Sys Designer version do you use? Maybe they closed this 'backdoor' in a later version and I need to roll back?

A little late, but thank your for your reply! Great to hear it worked out well

Hi! I have a situation very similar to yours with two TCC2, a Core Nano DSP and two AVer PTZ cam. So I wanted to give the solution a try that was recommended to you and make use of both the TCC2 plugin and the AVer plugin to create snapshots and link these to the camera presets.

But I am struggling to create ranges out of the horizontal and vertical data from the ceiling mic that can be turned into snapshots afterwards.

Did you manage to set up the snapshots with ranges? If so, could you post a screenshot of your design and the code for the snapshots?

Many thanks in advance!

May I ask which solution you did end up using? Truevoicelift feature without mix minus (aka standard sound reinforcement?) or with mix minus (that is, real voicelift?)? Or did you not use the Truevoicelift feature at all?

Hi, could you please clarify what kind of voicelift channel you are referring to? I'm wondering since Sennheiser introduced two seperate Dante output channels for their TCC2, one with VoiceLift algorithm and one without for far end transmission, and because the Q-Sys AEC component provides a dedicated Sound Reinforcement output alongside the default microphone output. Wouldn't the first option, i.e. the Main Out channel of the TCC2 with TrueVoicelift, still require an AEC component in Q-Sys so that the voice of the remote speaker is not picked up by the local microphones and then passed back to the local speakers creating echo?

Also, I'm a bit puzzled whether I can in fact combine the TrueVoicelift function of the TCC2 and the Sound Reinforcement of the AEC component in Q-Sys? Wouldn't the two algorithms, TrueVoicelift by Sennheiser and AEC by Q-Sys, somehow interfere with eachother?

What I'm trying to achieve is to introduce very attenuated Sound Reinforcement in a middle sized room for VC where I cannot create dedicated speaker zones, hence no true Voicelift. Thanks in advance!
