Crestron TSW 1060. POE HA dash for $30. Firmware

I’ve spent some time setting up a bunch of properties using the ssh integration. It took quite some time to figure out how to get the sensors to work, given that the Crestron panel isn’t a real shell, so you can’t clean up the output. Therefore, there’s a lot of key: ignored values that have to be added to the sensors list, which eats up empty space and sensors we don’t want.

One caveat, the commands are fairly slow—up to a second per sensor. I set my update interval to 300, so it only checks every 5 minutes. Also, if you don’t have the external LCD panel, you should remove everything related to digitaljoin or analogjoin, as it’ll just add a lot of time on updates.

Here’s a list of what this provides:

Actions:
- Standby
  - ~~I haven’t figured out how to get a sensor to tell me if the screen is in standby or not~~ I figured this out, see in the comment a couple below this.
- Wake (HomeAssistant will reload every time)
- Reload
Sensors that can be set:
- Brightness
- Standby Timeout (set to 0 to disable)
- Auto Brightness Enabled
- Auto Brightness Threshold (when to trigger it)
  - I’d like to include the hi & lo values, but Crestron combines them into one line for some reason
- R/G/B Backlight Enabled
- R/G/B Backlight Level
Other sensors:
- Hostname
