Blustream ACM200 Matrix Controller for ioBroker

Controls a Blustream ACM200 matrix controller for HDMI-over-IP audio/video distribution. Discovers connected transmitters and receivers via the ACM200's telnet interface and exposes routing/status states for each.

Features

• Automatic discovery of connected transmitters and receivers
• Video/audio routing control (combined and independent per stream)
• Transmitter audio source selection (AUTO / HDMI / ANA)
• "Route to all displays" commands (audio+video, video only, audio only)
• Status monitoring for all devices
• Preview image support (requires separate preview service)

Installation

Install the adapter from the ioBroker admin interface (Adapters → search for "blustream").

• Password: ACM200 password (default: 1234) — encrypted at rest

Advanced Settings

• Command Timeout (ms): Timeout for commands sent to the ACM200 (default: 5000)

States

• system.status.connected — Same as info.connection (legacy)
• system.status.lastUpdate — Timestamp of the last status update
• system.commands.refresh — Trigger a manual refresh of all status information
• system.commands.refreshAll — Force a complete state rebuild
• system.commands.routeAll — Write a transmitter ID to route audio + video to all displays
• system.commands.routeAllVideo — Write a transmitter ID to route video only to all displays
• system.commands.routeAllAudio — Write a transmitter ID to route audio only to all displays

Transmitters (per transmitter)

• transmitters.<id>.id — Transmitter ID
• transmitters.<id>.name — Display name
• transmitters.<id>.ip — IP address
• transmitters.<id>.connected — Connection status
• transmitters.<id>.edid — EDID setting
• transmitters.<id>.audioSource — Audio source selection (AUTO/HDMI/ANA)
• transmitters.<id>.previewUrl — URL to preview image (if preview service is enabled)

Receivers (per receiver)

• receivers.<id>.id — Receiver ID
• receivers.<id>.name — Display name
• receivers.<id>.ip — IP address
• receivers.<id>.connected — Connection status
• receivers.<id>.route — Combined audio+video route (write a transmitter ID)
• receivers.<id>.videoRoute — Video-only route
• receivers.<id>.audioRoute — Audio-only route
• receivers.<id>.resolution — Output resolution
• receivers.<id>.previewUrl — URL to preview image

Usage examples

Route transmitter 2 to receiver 1:

setState('blustream-acm200.0.receivers.001.route', '002');

Route transmitter 3 to all receivers:

setState('blustream-acm200.0.system.commands.routeAll', '003');

Troubleshooting

• If the adapter cannot connect, verify the IP address, port, and that the ACM200's telnet interface is enabled.
• If transmitters or receivers are missing after start-up, trigger a refresh via system.commands.refresh.
• Enable debug logging in Admin → instance → log level to see telnet traffic.
