Uploading and Upgrading
Crestron recommends using the latest programming software and that each device
contains the latest firmware to take advantage of the most recently released features.
However, before attempting to upload or upgrade it is necessary to establish
communication. Once communication has been established, files (for example,
programs or firmware) can be transferred to the control system (and/or device).
Finally, program checks can be performed (such as changing the device ID or
creating an IP table) to ensure proper functioning.
While the next section provides an overview for communication, refer to
“Establishing Communications with the Control System” in the latest version of the
Crestron 2-Series Control Systems Reference Guide (Doc. 6256) for connection
details. If communications cannot be established, refer to “Troubleshooting
Communications” in the same guide.
Establishing Communication
Use Crestron Toolbox for communicating with the MPC-M50; refer to the Crestron
Toolbox help file for details. There are two methods of communication.
USB
NOTE:
Required for initial setup of Ethernet parameters.

The
COMPUTER
port on the MPC-M50 connects to the USB port on the PC via a
Type A to Type B USB cable (not included):
1.
Use the Address Book in Crestron Toolbox to create an entry using the
expected communication protocol (USB). When multiple USB devices are
connected, identify the MPC-M50 by entering (for example) “MPC-M50”
in the
Model
textbox, the unit’s serial number in the
Serial
textbox or the
unit’s hostname in the
Hostname
textbox. The hostname can be found in the
“System Info” window in the section marked
Ethernet
however,
communications must be established in order to see this information in the
“System Info” window.
2.
Display the MPC-M50’s “System Info” window (click the
icon);
communications are confirmed when the device information is displayed.
