(For further information on this procedure, refer to the VT Pro-e online help
file.)
Viewport
To transfer the Web pages to the QM-RMCRX, use the
File Transfer | Send
Web Pages
command.
The options are to send an entire project, only files that have changed, or a
single HTML file. With the “Transfer Entire Project” option, click
OK
when
reminded to select a default page, and then browse to the appropriate VT Pro-e
.web project folder. Select the file that was designated as the “first” page of the
project. This will be the default Web page that is displayed whenever the IP
address of the control system is accessed by a Web browser. Click
Open
, and
then
OK
to begin the transfer.
If any files in the VT Pro-e project change, the changed files can be transferred
to the QM-RMCRX without resending the entire project by choosing the “Only
Transfer Files that have Changed”
option. Here again, browse to the .web
project folder and select the default page. Click
Open
, and then
OK
to transfer
the changed files.
Finally, selecting “Transfer Single File” can send a single HTML file. Browse to
the file and click
Open
. Then specify the file’s relative path (from the root
directory) and click
OK
.
NOTE:
For Crestron e-Control 2, you can choose the default “Main.HTML”
name or you can change the name.
SIMPL Windows
For each IP ID in the VT Pro-e browser project, there must be one
corresponding Crestron e-Control PC Interface symbol defined in the SIMPL
Windows program. The PC Interface symbol is one of the Ethernet Modules that
can be dropped into the C2ENET-1 card slot.
As with all Ethernet devices, the PC Interface must receive an entry in the IP
Table of the QM-RMCRX. Here the IP ID must match the IP ID that was
assigned in VT Pro-e, while the IP address must be set to a loopback: 127.0.0.1,
when hosting internal.
Converting Programs and Modules Created for
Other Systems
A useful feature of SIMPL Windows is that you can convert a program created
for another type of control system, simply by changing the target to a QM-
RMCRX.
To do this you first open the program, and then replace the existing control
system with the QM-RMCRX. That is, drag the QM-RMCRX from the Control
Systems folder onto the existing control system in
System Views
, and click
Yes
when prompted to confirm the replacement.
If the program contains SIMPL+ or User modules, the conversion might
generate error messages. This is because modules and programs often contain
symbols with “ambiguous” signals. For example, the inputs of the Serial to
Analog symbol can be defined as either analog or serial. Although X-Generation
processors support ambiguous signals, the 2-Series processor requires all signal
types to be strictly defined.
