NOTE:
When daisy-chaining Cresnet units, strip the ends of the wires carefully to
avoid nicking the conductors. Twist together the ends of the wires that share a pin on
the network connector, and tin the twisted connection. Apply solder only to the ends
of the twisted wires. Avoid tinning too far up the wires or the end becomes brittle.
Insert the tinned connection into the Cresnet connector and tighten the retaining
screw. Repeat the procedure for the other three conductors.
Identity Code
Every equipment and user interface within the network requires a unique identity
code (Net ID). These codes are two-digit hexadecimal numbers from 03 to FE. The
Net ID of each unit must match an ID code specified in the SIMPL Windows
program. Refer to “Setting the Net ID in Device Settings” on page 11 for details of
the SIMPL Windows procedure.
Refer to the note on page 13 for a
definition of Viewport.
The Net ID of the CNMK has been factory set to 28. The Net IDs of multiple
CNMKs in the same system must be unique. Net IDs are changed from a personal
computer (PC) via the Crestron Viewport.
NOTE
: For detailed information on establishing communication between the PC and
control system, refer to “Communication Settings” on page 13. If communication
cannot be established, refer to the “Troubleshooting Communications” section in the
latest version of the 2-Series Control System Reference Guide (Doc. 6256) or the
respective Operations Guide for the other control systems, which are available from
the Crestron website.
