Crestron Viewport
To troubleshoot communications, network or system problems, the
Administrator right clicks the room and selects
Diagnostics
from the submenu

NOTE:
Viewport works on port 41795.
The Crestron Viewport is a broad-based mechanism that performs multiple
system tasks. It is used for diagnostics and to observe system processes, upload
new operating systems and firmware, change network settings, and
communicate with network device consoles, among many other tasks. Viewport
can also function as a terminal emulator for generic file transfer. All of these
functions are accessed through the commands and options in the Viewport
menus:
Viewport: File Menu
Save Current Buffer
Saves incoming data to an ASCII text file (the Viewport buffer holds about 10
kilobytes of data). Browse to the desired target directory, enter a filename (it
will have a .cap extension) and click
Save
.
Log Incoming Data to File
Writes incoming data to an ASCII .log file. To begin logging click
Start
,
browse to the desired target directory, enter a filename and click
Save
. As data
comes into the Viewport console it will be written to the file, together with a
Time Stamp that gives the date and time (to the nearest second) that the data was
received.
To halt the logging operation, click
Stop
or
Pause
.
Exit
Closes Viewport.
