Connection and Configuration, cont’d

1.Connect one end of the relay cable to a 8-pole captive screw connector, wired appropriately, and plug it into the rear panel relay port connector of the interface unit.

2.Connect the other end of the relay cable to the device which will be activated when the triggering signal is received.

Configuring the Hardware

To function together properly, both the controlling PC and the IPL T CR48 must be configured correctly. The PC must be network-capable, with the proper protocols installed and the hardware configured correctly. The IPL T CR48 must be set to recognize and accept commands and pass them through to the projector lift, screen lift or other controlled device.

PC configuration

This manual assumes that you have a Windows® PC equipped with an operating network adapter. To allow your PC to work with Extron’s Ethernet-controlled products, the TCP/IP protocol must be installed and properly configured.

For use on an existing Ethernet LAN intranet, your network administrator can provide you with a unique IP address or confirm whether you need to set up the IPL T CR48 unit for DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration protocol) to have an address assigned automatically when you sign on.

IPL T CR48 interface configuration

When you power on the IPL T CR48 unit for the first time, there are two ways to set up the IP address:

1.Use the ARP command method.

2.Use the direct PC method.

The default Web pages that are pre-loaded on the IPL T CR48 provide a way to reconfigure the IPL T unit once it has an active network connection with IP access. These Web pages are compatible with Netscape® Navigator (version 6.0 or higher), or Microsoft® Internet Explorer (version 5.5 or higher). See “Communication with the Interface” in chapter 4 for information on accessing and configuring the interface.

Once the unit has been reconfigured, an Ethernet (intranet or Internet) connection can subsequently be used to contact or control it. Refer to “Ethernet connection” earlier in this chapter for additional information.
