Crestron electronic CEN-IDOC Setup

Setup

The CEN-IDOC requires the use of a high-speed Ethernet connection for control

system communications.

For information on connecting Ethernet devices in a Crestron system, refer to the

latest version of the Crestron e-Control Reference Guide (Doc. 6052), which is

available for download from the Crestron website (www.crestron.com/manuals).

In addition to Ethernet applications, Category 5 (CAT5) wiring is used by Crestron

for a variety of audio applications.

Crestron recommends using CresCAT-IM wire or other high-quality CAT5 cable for

transmitting CAT5 audio signals.

When using a Crestron wiring solution, the CEN-IDOC can transmit audio signals up

to 500 feet. For more information, refer to the latest version of the Crestron CAT5

Wiring Guide (Doc. 6137), which is available for download from the Crestron

website (www.crestron.com/manuals).

The IP ID is set within the CEN-IDOC’s IP table using Crestron Toolbox. For

information on setting an IP table, refer to the Crestron Toolbox help file.

NOTE: If using with an Adagio AES or AADS with out-of-the-box functionality,

the IP ID does not need to be set. The Installer Tools utility is used to configure a

CEN-IDOC to work with an AES or AADS running the out-of-the-box

configuration. For more information, refer to the latest revision of the AES guide

(Doc. 6456) or AADS guide (Doc. 6458).

The IP IDs of multiple CEN-IDOC devices in the same system must be unique.

When setting the IP ID, consider the following:

• The IP ID of each unit must match an IP ID specified in the SIMPL

Windows program.

• Each device using IP to communicate with a control system must have a

unique IP ID.

The CEN-IDOC can be mounted in a rack or to any surface using the integral

mounting flanges. Mounting hardware is not provided.
