Crestron C2N-MMS Professional Multimedia Switch
NOTE: When daisy-chaining Cresnet units, strip the ends of the wires carefully to
avoid nicking the conductors. Twist together the ends of the wires that share a pin on
the network connector, and tin the twisted connection. Apply solder only to the ends
of the twisted wires. Avoid tinning too far up the wires or the end becomes brittle.
Insert the tinned connection into the Cresnet connector and tighten the retaining
screw. Repeat the procedure for the other three conductors.
NOTE: For larger networks (i.e., greater than 28 network devices), it may become
necessary to add a Cresnet Hub/Repeater (CNXHUB) to maintain signal quality
throughout the network. Also, for networks with lengthy cable runs, it may be
necessary to add a Hub/Repeater after only 20 devices.
Crestron Toolbox
NOTE: The minimum version of Crestron Toolbox required to operate with the
C2N-MMS is version 1.0.06 or later.
The Crestron Toolbox (a replacement for Crestron Viewport, you may continue to
use Viewport version 3.109 or later if desired) is a broad-based software package
that accomplishes multiple system tasks, primarily using an RS-232 or TCP/IP
connection between a PC and one or more Crestron control systems.
You can use the Crestron Toolbox to:
•
Observe system processes.
•
Upload operating systems and firmware.
•
Upload programs and touchpanel projects.
•
Set or change device Network IDs.
•
Change serial numbers.
•
Run scripts to automate tasks.
•
Perform system diagnostics, and much more.
The Crestron Toolbox allows you to perform these functions using simple graphical
views and click and drag methods.
Identity Code
Every network device and user interface within the Cresnet network requires a
unique identity code (Net ID). These codes are two-digit hexadecimal numbers from
03 to FE. The Net ID of each unit must match an ID code specified in the SIMPL
Windows program. Refer to “Setting the Net ID in Device Settings” on page 18 for
details of the SIMPL Windows procedure.
The Net ID of the C2N-MMS has been factory set to 11 . The Net IDs of multiple
C2N-MMS devices in the same system must be unique. Net IDs are changed from a
personal computer (PC) via the Crestron Toolbox.
NOTE: For detailed information on establishing communication between the PC,
control system, and the C2N-MMS, refer to “Establishing Communications” on page
19. If communication cannot be established, refer to the “Troubleshooting
Communications” section in the latest version of the 2-Series Control System
Reference Guide (Doc. 6256), which is available from the Crestron website.
