Uploading and Upgrading
Crestron recommends using the latest programming software and that
each device contains the latest firmware to take advantage of the most
recently released features. However, before attempting to upload or
upgrade it is necessary to establish communication. Once communication
has been established, files (for example, firmware) can be transferred to
the device. Finally, program checks can be performed (such as changing
the device ID) to ensure proper functioning.
Establishing Communication
Use Crestron Toolbox for communicating with the DM-RMC-100; refer
to the Crestron Toolbox help file for details.
A PC running Crestron Toolbox communicates with the
DM-RMC-100 in the following ways:
•
Via a DM switcher using TCP/IP or USB communication. TCP/IP
provides a faster method of communication than USB.
•
Via the
LAN
port of the DM-RMC-100 using TCP/IP
communication. In this scenario, the DM-RMC-100 is used in a
standalone configuration (i.e. a DM switcher is not used).

1.
Establish communication between the PC and the DM switcher as
described in the latest version of the Digital Media Switchers
Operations Guide (Doc. 6755).
2.
Use the Device Discovery Tool in Crestron Toolbox to find the IP
address of the DM-RMC-100. The tool is available in Toolbox
