pin on the network connector, and tin the twisted connection. Apply solder only
to the ends of the twisted wires. Avoid tinning too far up the wires or the end
becomes brittle. Insert the tinned connection into the Cresnet connector and
tighten the retaining screw. Repeat the procedure for the other three conductors.
NOTE: For larger networks (i.e., greater than 28 network devices), it may
become necessary to add a Cresnet Hub/Repeater (CNXHUB) to maintain signal
quality throughout the network. Also, for networks with lengthy cable runs, it
may be necessary to add a Hub/Repeater after only 20 devices.
QM Network Wiring
When connecting multiple QM devices, the route between a QM origination
point (e.g., QM-FTMCSC) and a QM endpoint (e.g., QM-RMCRX-BA) cannot
have more than two midpoints (e.g., QM-MD7x2 or other QM switchers). Refer
to the following diagram when configuring a QM network. Refer to Appendix B
on page 56 for additional QuickMedia installation information.

Crestron Toolbox
The Crestron Toolbox (replacement for Crestron Viewport, you may continue to
use Viewport if desired) is a broad-based software package that accomplishes
multiple system tasks, primarily using an RS-232 or TCP/IP connection between
a PC and one or more Crestron control systems.
You can use the Crestron Toolbox to:
Observe system processes.
•
Upload operating systems and firmware.
•
Upload programs and touchpanel projects.
•
Set or change device Network IDs.
•
Change serial numbers.
•
Run scripts to automate tasks.
•
Perform system diagnostics, and much more.
•
The Crestron Toolbox allows you to perform these functions using simple
graphical views and click and drag methods.
