There is a single method of communication: TCP/IP communication.
Ethernet Communication
PC Running
Crestron Toolbox
The CEN-CI3-3 connects to PC via Ehernet:
1. Enter the IP address, IP mask and default router of the card interface via
Crestron Toolbox (Functions | Ethernet Addressing); otherwise enable
DHCP.
NOTE: Use the Device Discovery Tool in Crestron Toolbox to detect all
Ethernet devices on the network and their IP configuration. The tool is
available in Toolbox version 1.1.5.143 or later.
2. Confirm Ethernet connection between card interface and PC. If connecting
through a hub or router, use CAT5 straight through cables with 8-pin RJ-45
connectors. Alternatively, use a CAT5 crossover cable to connect the two
LAN ports directly without using a hub or router (via static IP and a power
injector, if no other power is supplied).
NOTE: Some PCs may not require a crossover cable. Check with PC
manufacturer.
3. Use the Address Book in Crestron Toolbox to create an entry for the
CEN-CI3-3 with the CEN-CI3-3's TCP/IP parameters.
4. Display the "System Info" window (click the
interface entry.
NOTE: The CONTROL SUBNET ports work with LANs as well as with control
subnet networks. The CONTROL SUBNET OUT port can be used for daisy
chaining.
