Expanded PRO2 System Tree
C2Net-Device Slot in Configuration Manager
To incorporate a MT-500C into the system, a gateway device is required. The
C2Net-Device Slot can accept a gateway such as the CNRFGWA-418. Once a
gateway is configured in a C2Net-Device Slot, the slot allows Cresnet
communication between the MT-500C and the control system.
In Configuration Manager, drag the CNRFGWA-418 gateway from the Wireless
Receivers (RF) folder of the Device Library. Also, drag and drop the MT-500C from
the Wireless remotes folder on the CNRFGWA-418.
Expand the system tree in the lower pane and double-click the MT-500C icon to
open the “Device Settings” window for the wireless handheld (refer to graphic
below). Select the RF/IR ID tab to change the handheld’s RF ID, as shown in the
following figure.
NOTE: The hardware and software settings of the RF ID must match. Although the
device setting window in SIMPL Windows allows choices through the range of two-
digit Hexadecimal numbers from 01 through FE, the RF ID setting for the hardware
is limited to numbers in increments of the most significant digit (i.e., 00, 10, 20).
Since 00 is not a valid selection in SIMPL Windows, the RF ID number is limited to
the fifteen numbers 10, 20, 30, 40, . . .F0 (if you need to use multiple units).

MT-500C Symbol in Programming Manager
Programming Manager is where programmers “program” a Creston control system
by assigning signals to symbols. The following diagram shows the MT-500C symbol
in the SIMPL Windows’ Programming Manager.
