Crestron
DM-TX-200-C-2G
DigitalMedia 8G+™ Transmitter 200
Setup
Network Wiring
When wiring the DM network, consider the following:
•
Use Crestron Certified Wire.
•
Use Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment.
CAUTION:
Failure to use Crestron power supplies could cause equipment
damage or void the Crestron warranty.
•
Provide sufficient power to the system.
•
For DM 8G+ wiring up to 330 feet (100 meters) between devices, use
Crestron DM-CBL-8G DigitalMedia 8G cable, Crestron DM-CBL
DigitalMedia cable, Crestron DM-CBL-D DigitalMedia D cable, or generic
CAT5e (or better) UTP or STP. Shielded cable and connectors are
recommended to safeguard against unpredictable environmental electrical
noise which may impact performance at resolutions above 1080p. Refer to
the latest version of the Crestron DigitalMedia Infrastructure Guide
(Doc. 4556) for complete wiring guidelines and to the Crestron
DigitalMedia Design Guide (Doc. 4789) for complete system design
guidelines.
The DM-TX-200-C-2G also uses high-speed Ethernet for communications between
the device and a control system, computer, media server, and other IP-based devices.
For information specifically related to Ethernet connectivity using DigitalMedia
devices, refer to the latest version of the Crestron IP Considerations Guide for the IT
Professional (Doc. 4579), which is available from the Crestron Web site
(
).
Identity Code
NOTE:
In the SIMPL Windows program, the IP ID of the DM-TX-200-C-2G is
assigned automatically and does not require additional programming when the
DM-TX-200-C-2G is dropped onto an input card of a DM switcher. Use the
information below when a DM-TX-200-C-2G is dropped directly into an Ethernet
slot on the control system in SIMPL Windows without a DM switcher.
The IP ID is set within the IP table of the DM-TX-200-C-2G using Crestron
Toolbox. For information on setting an IP table, refer to the Crestron Toolbox help
file. The IP IDs of multiple DM-TX-200-C-2Gs in the same system must be unique.
When setting the IP ID, consider the following:
•
The IP ID of each unit must match an IP ID specified in the SIMPL
Windows program.
•
Each device using IP to communicate with a control system must have a
unique IP ID.
