Server Configuration In Depth
Installation & Reference Guide — DOC. 5822
Deleting the file means that all configuration variables revert to their default values
the next time the server is run. The problem with this approach, of course, is that you
lose any settings already made.
To reset the password only (without affecting the rest of the configuration), edit the
.ini
file using the Notepad application (
Start | Programs | Accessories |
Notepad
). Locate and delete the following key in the
[GENERAL]
section (the
value may differ):
privilegeLevel_2=180350152
Exit the Notepad application, saving the file.
The password is now reset to its default — which is “
crestron2
.”
Run the server again. Issue the
Server | Options...
command. Enter the default
password. You can now change the password to whatever you want by clicking the
Change Password
button.
COM Settings Configuration
A “COM Settings” data structure (also called a “[system] connection”) must be
created and configured for each connection you intend to make to your control
systems.
All active signal blocks (
Signal Blocks
tab) must reference such a structure. See
“COM Settings,” page 33, for instructions on defining such a reference for your
signal blocks.
The
COM Settings
tab
The
COM Settings
tab of the Configuration Options window contains a list of data
structures called “COM settings definitions” which represent connections to control
systems. From this tab, you can activate and deactivate such definitions, and define
additional ones.
N
OTE
:
Connections may be defined before or after signal blocks are defined. However, signal
blocks cannot be activated until they reference a defined connection.
Refer to the figure below.
To remove a COM settings definition, select it and click the
Remove
button.
To duplicate an existing definition, select it and click the
Duplicate
button. The new
definition differs from the original in that it is given a unique name which is derived
from the name of the original, incremented by one. (If the original did not end in a
number, the name of the duplicate is the name of the original with a “1” suffixed to
it.)
Click the
Add…
button to define an new connection; or select one of the definitions
already listed and click
Modify…
to modify it. The
COM Settings
window opens:
