HI guys,
I am after some guidance regarding the following and I apologize if this has been discussed in length before, but I can not seem to find any support online anywhere for this problem.
Task:
I have an OPII (192.168.0.101) and my centralised control mechanism for all my security/audio/video etc. is via a windows 7 Media Centre PC running a 17inch monitor in the kitchen that has been converted to a capacitive touchscreen. I used to run HAI Home Controls in XP media centre but have upgraded to 7 due to a number of reasons. I have just bought a single license of the Omnitouch Pro software and loaded it onto the W7 machine (192.168.0.3). It has been configured and works with the OPII controller no worries.
I have Automation Studio running on my office computer (192.168.0.5) and I have regularly changed the GUI/template on a 5.7e touchscreen (192.168.0.102) via AS without any problems.
Question:
My issue is, how do I customize the OTP software that is running on the W7 machine via AS running on another PC? I just can not see anywhere in AS to point it to the software itself.
I have created a new project and added a touchscreen that is setup as an Omnitouch Pro Device (1). I have entered the controller IP address (192.168.0.101) and its key with the port left as default.
Under the network options, I have entered the IP address of the W7 computer running the software (192.168.0.3) and left that port as default. I know this is where the breakdown is and I don't understand how to point it to the OTP software.
The only thought I had was seeing that it is a 3rd party device, do I have to create a new template in AS, save it, and somehow copy that template from the office PC and paste it into a particular folder within the OTP directory that is running on the W7 machine as opposed to a network upgarde that is done for a 5.7e?
When I attempt to "Update Touchscreens" it shows the device as disconnected. If I select Update it idles and then states "No Host". I get this as it is looking for a "normal HAI " IP device not a windows machine.
Again, the default OTP software is running and working on my W7 machine fine.
I am lost as how to achieve this and would greatly appreciate some feedback.
Many thanks,
Travis
