Intercom Interface Crestron C2N-IIF
Identity Code
All equipment and user interfaces within the network require a unique
identity code (Net ID). These codes are two-digit hexadecimal numbers
from 03 to FE. The Net ID of each unit must match an ID code specified
in the SIMPL Windows program. Refer to “Setting the Net ID in Device
Settings” on page 27 for details of the SIMPL Windows procedure.
Refer to the note
on page 36 for a
definition of
Viewport.
The Net ID of the C2N-IIF has been factory set to 19. The Net IDs of
multiple C2N-IIF in the same system must be unique. Net IDs are
changed from a personal computer (PC) via the Crestron Viewport.
NOTE: For detailed information on establishing communication
between the PC and control system, refer to “Communication Settings”
on page 37. If communication cannot be established, refer to the
“Troubleshooting Communications” section in the respective Operations
Guide for the control system.
There are two different methods—Method A or Method B—for setting
the Net ID:
Method A (Cresnet address-settable ID), described below, applies to
devices in a Cresnet system with a CNX control system or with a 2-
Series control system and requires that a single unit be the only network
device connected to the control system.
Method B (Touch Settable ID or TSID), which begins on page 21,
applies to all TSID-ready devices in a Cresnet system with 2-Series
control system upgrade file (CUZ) version 3.029 or later. TSID
functionality makes it possible for the control system to recognize a
network device via its serial number, which is stored in the device’s
memory. This method does not require that any devices be disconnected
from the network; Net IDs may be set with the entire Cresnet system
intact. This method requires the use of the Crestron Viewport version
3.35 or later.
Use the appropriate method to set the Net ID.
Method A (Cresnet address-settable ID)
1. Ensure that the device requiring a Net ID change is the only
unit connected to the control system.
2. Open the Crestron Viewport.
