AUTONEGOT Command
As described earlier in this reference guide, Crestron’s 2-Series control systems and
TPS Ethernet touchpanels have auto-sensing capabilities. That is, the C2ENET and
TPS-ENET cards can detect the speed of the Ethernet network and automatically
adjust to that speed. This is called
auto-negotiation , and it is enabled by default.
However, if you know the speed of the network and you want to set the speed and
duplex type explicitly, you can set these values using the Viewport AUTONEGOT
console command.
Here is the syntax of the command:
AUTONEGOT < Ethernet Adapter > < ON|10HALF|10FULL|100HALF|100FULL >
Where < Ethernet Adapter > is 0 for LAN A or 1 for LAN B. “10” and “100” refer to
10Mbps or 100Mbps, and HALF and FULL set the duplex type, as follows:
•
10HALF – auto-negotiation is OFF, use 10Mbps, half duplex.
•
10FULL – auto-negotiation is OFF, use 10Mbps, full duplex.
•
100HALF – auto-negotiation is OFF, use 100Mbps, half duplex.
•
100FULL – auto-negotiation is OFF, use 100Mbps, full duplex.
For example, to set a TPS Ethernet touchpanel to 100 Mbps, full duplex, you type:
> AUTONEGOT 0 100FULL
Interfaces to e-Control
The heart of any well-designed control system is the user interface, which provides the
link between the end user and the control system. Regardless of how cleverly
programmed or sophisticated a given system is, if it lacks a quality user interface it is
unlikely to be used to its full potential.
Crestron offers a variety of user interfaces, including Cresnet and TPS touchpanels,
wired button panels, keypads, and IR (infrared) and RF (radio frequency) remotes.
Any of these interfaces can be used in e-Control.
For example, a Cresnet touchpanel such as a CT-1000 can be used to control Ethernet
devices. The control system receives commands from the CT-1000 over Cresnet and
forwards the commands over CIP to the device. Feedback from the device is routed by
the control system back over Cresnet to the touchpanel. No special programming or IP
Table entry is required in SIMPL Windows to use a Cresnet interface in this scenario.
That is, the touchpanel symbol detail is defined as usual, with output and feedback
signals connected to the inputs and outputs on the controlled device.
When you use a touchpanel as an interface to e-Control (or to any other control
method), you design the touch screen pages using Crestron’s VisionTools™ Pro-e
software (VT Pro-e). The available design options differ depending on the touchpanel.
Some panels, like the CT-1000, are referred to as “original” panels. These panels
provide basic design options for appearance and feedback. In contrast, Crestron’s TPS
panels are referred to as “multi-mode”. Multi-mode panels are capable of displaying
