Universal Remotes 

Any universal remote transmitting RC5 code (and some Sharp codes) can 
communicate with the Crestron control system and allow the user to select and 
activate any function in the control system. An RC5 code is 14 bits long. Each code 
includes a 5-bit address (or system) and a 6-bit command. Sharp uses a different IR 
protocol, but some of their codes are acceptable. 

NOTE:  

The Philips Pronto contains built-in RC5 commands for out-of-the-box use. 

Setting up a Philips Pronto is easy! 

If using the Philips Pronto, select RC5 code communication. For the Philips Pronto, 
the RC5 system number is equivalent to Crestron's 

Transmitter ID

 code, which is a 

unique identifier assigned to each transmitter. Likewise, RC5 command number is 
equivalent to Crestron's 

Button ID

, which is synonymous with the join number used 

in SIMPL Windows. There is no need to perform the two multi-step procedures in 
the subsequent sections. 

NOTE:  

Typically, codes used by Magnavox, Marantz and Philips audio/video 

equipment utilize RC5 codes for transmission. Some codes used by Sharp 
Electronics Corporation are also usable. 

Universal remotes require two  
multi-step procedures for setup. 

Some devices from Magnavox, Marantz and Philips are designed to understand 
certain kinds of infrared signals sent by remote controls, specifically, signals 
belonging to the RC5 code set. Two procedures are required to setup a universal 
remote. The first procedure verifies that the universal remote chosen does transmit 
an identifiable code and therefore can communicate with the Crestron control 
system. The second procedure maps the buttons on the universal remote so that they 
can be used in the SIMPL Windows program. 

Code Verification 

 

 

Each universal remote comes with its own manual, which lists codes by device and 
manufacturer. The purpose of this procedure is to select and program a code into the 
universal remote so that it can communicate with the Crestron control system. All 
that is required to complete this procedure is the C2N-IRGW-1G or C2N-IRGW-F, 
a PC running the Crestron Toolbox, a Crestron control system connected to the PC 
and any universal remote (complete with batteries and manufacturer's manual). The 
control system should be running a valid SIMPL Windows program that includes 
the C2N-IRGW-1G or C2N-IRGW-F at the proper Net ID so that it can be polled. 

1.  Using Cresnet cable, attach the 4-position terminal block connector 

from the C2N-IRGW-1G or connect the pigtail wires from the  
C2N-IRGW-F to the Crestron control system (NET port). Refer to 
“Network Wiring” on page 6 for details. 

2.  Open the Crestron Toolbox. 

3.  Display the “System Info” window (click the 

 icon). 

4.  From the Toolbox menu, select 

Functions | Identify Transmitter

. The 

software checks the baud rate and then opens the “Identify Transmitter” 
window, as shown after this step.
