5. Select the type network routing appropriate for your projector and select Enter.

Setting up the Ethernet

Ethernet is setup to obtain an IP address automatically if a DHCP server is on the network. To modify
IP settings, or manually enter an address.
Christie recommends using the Ethernet port on the IMXB as the HDBaseT port is limited to 100 Mb/s.
You cannot change the IP settings using the web interface.
1. From the display panel, use the arrow keys to select IP Settings.
2. To set the type of network, select DHCP or Static.
3. If you selected Static, manually enter the network information for the IP Address, Subnet,
and Gateway.
4. Select Apply and select Enter.
5. Select MENU > Communications > Network Settings.
6. Select Device name.
7. Use the up and down keys to enter the name of the projector.
8. Select Enter.

Understanding message format

Commands sent to and from Crimson are formatted as simple text messages consisting of a three
letter command code, an optional four letter subcode, and optional data.

Generally, most commands include 0 or 1 data fields or parameters. Where applicable, a message may
expand to include additional parameters of related details.
The smallest step size for any parameter is always 1. For some controls (such as Size) the value
displayed on the screen has a decimal point (for example, 0.200 to 4.000). In this case, the values
used for the serial communications is an integer value (for example, 200 to 4000), not the decimal
value seen on the screen.
